      - Heh. - kelly Sep 15, 06:28 2
        
        I dunno what was worse; that Buffalo blew the game or somehow the announcers kept praising Belichek's decision to kick it deep. - Will Hunting Sep 15, 06:31 1
        
        I only caught about 5 or 10 minutes of the game, but it happened to be near the end. From what I saw/heard, Jon Gruden seemed rather decent overall. - Don Homer Sep 15, 06:33
