Monday Night Meltdown

What was supposed to be the matchup of the year turned into a total dud. The Tom Bradey led New England Patriots defeated the New York Jets 45 to 3. This goes to prove no matter how much you hype up a game it will always be decided on the field.

It looks like the Jets were never in it. They could not move the ball and could not stop the Pats from doing whatever they wanted.

Mark Sanchez has the makings of a great quarterback. In time we will hold him up there with the best but on a cold night outside Boston he showed he still needs to learn more about playing in the NFL. Of course he didn't have the advantage afforded to Tom Brady. When he took over, nobody thought he would become the star he is. Having said that, he keeps going year after year.

It is the TV networks job to bring in viewers. In doing so, they need to hype up the game. Before the first snap this game deserved to be hyped. It just turned out to be a big snoozer. You can't win them all.

Tonight one team brought their best to play in front of the football watching world and one did not. Unfortunately it doesn't make for much of a game to watch.
