Open Thread: MNF Patriots @ Saints

It feels like old times again, rooting for Drew Brees and local boy Reggie Bush. A win by the Saints means a better chance at a playoff bye for the Chargers.
On a side note, I'm rooting against Tom Brady. At the end of the year, when his season has been okay but not great, I'm going to be the first to point out that Philip Rivers had a better year coming back from the same injury with less recovery time.
Should be a good game though. Settle in.

Quick Question
What does everyone think of the 619sports content showing up on the front page? I like it, kindof like BFTB has guys inside the locker room, but nobody seems to be reccing or commenting on it.

I don’t see a problem with it.

I like it
I’ve found it to be a great addition similar to having a guy in the locker room, like you said.
P.S. — Hey guys, I’ve been reading most of the season and finally decided to sign up. Looking forward to (hopefully) not detracting from this site’s discussion. :P

Strangely enough
I give NO the advantage because their D is a lot better.

I don’t doubt the Pats go for it

We didn’t send him. We cut him and that’s where he signed.

Best thing of all of this is
We have a board at work that lists all of the NFL teams that people at the company are fans of.
If NE loses, that means that the Chargers will have the best record on the board. :-)

Not the best ever yardage and touchdowns, total
but as far as per attempt, I’d be surprised if there wasn’t some kind of record.
It always makes me feel good to watch Drew and Phil excel simultaneously. Like we did the right thing.
