The Sunday Sports Thread #1 For 9/14/12 (Second Version): NFL Week 6 Early Game Thoughts And Coverage



1) Dustin Keller will be the key difference for the Jets today in a must win against a Colts side who can easily go 3-2 behind another top day for the ace that is Andrew Luck.

2) The pressure gets higher and higher for Jason Garrett today, who must give Tony Romo a balance running game by giving DeMarco Murray more touches.

3) The same must be said of both Jim Schwartz and Andy Reid, who need to prevent their quarterbacks of Matthew Stafford and Michael Vick from getting killed today. Somewhere, the Lions through anyone have to get balance to help Stafford.

4) The loss of Aqib Talib will have a big effect on the Bucs-Chiefs game and could give a needed victory to Kansas City.

5) Who in the receiving group for the Rams will step up for Sam Bradford now that Danny Amendola is gone? Meanwhile, the Dolphins' Ryan Tannehill

HALFTIME THOUGHTS 


1) Matt Ryan is by far having his worst performance of the season, but Mike Smith's mediocre coaching has not prepared the Falcons well in the ultimate trap game against a desperate Raiders team. They are not exposing their Jet lag.

2) Michael Vick: 18 throws, LeSean McCoy: 7 rushes......Why does Andy Reid hate the run so much?

3) Matthew Stafford again shouldering the load, although Schwartz has shown more needed balance running the ball.

4) Andrew Dalton, terrific today.

5) Ryan Tannehill continues his great play and is displaying a level at poise up there with Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin. And Brandon Weeden is making the deep throws over the top very well.

6) Does Dwayne Bowe even exist anymore? A rookie running back from Colgate is getting more touches than him.
