Welker did drop that TD but it was lessened because they scored on the next play. Very surprised to see the Jets come out with the win, although I think the Steelers will be too much for them next week. They've got a lot of big game players and I don't think Sanchez has enough composure to see the Jets through such a big game. Although I did think both the Colts and Patriots would be too much for the Jets, so what do I know
I think thats an interesting idea with the divisions VictorCharlie, that would make for some huge divisons and it might generate more interest with the teams being closer together. Could really intensify some of the rivalries. The Jets, Pats, Giants and Bills and the Cowboys, Texans, Saints and Cardinals would be massive IMO.
The Cowboy fans on one of the other sites I frequent were in uproar over it. They are America's team and belong in the flagship division with their historic rivals blah blah blah. They felt that their division in my scenario was a bunch of 2nd rate teams that were beneath them. The whole episode just reinforced why I root against the Boys. Their self righteous sense of entitlement just rubs me the wrong way.
