01:10:15 – SEATTLE SEAHAWKS @ ARIZONA CARDINALS

 KICKOFF WEEK #7.  HERE IN ARIZONA LARRY FITZGERALD 6 RECEPTIONS SHY OF 800 IN HIS CAREER.  MARSHAWN DOING HIS SKITTLES THING BEFORE DOING HIS BEAST MODE THING IN THE DESERT.  RUSSELL WILSON CAME OUT.  WHAT A PLAY, KURT WARNER.  WHAT A PLAY RUSSELL WILSON MADE RIGHT HERE IN THE 1ST QUARTER.  AND ARIZONA BROUGHT PRESSURE HERE BUT YOU GOTTA KEEP CONTAIN ON THIS GUY IF YOU BRING PRESSURE.  HE GOT OUTSIDE.  WHAT A GREAT THROW ON THE OUTSIDE.  WE TALKED ABOUT THAT IN THE PREGAME.  THAT YOU HAVE TO STAY WITH THOSE RECEIVERS, RICH, AT ALL TIMES BECAUSE RUSSELL WILSON WILL BUY TIME AND FIND HIM.  AND HE’LL ALSO FIND ZACH MILLER IN THE END ZONE TO MAKE IT A 14-NOTHING LEAD.  THE CROWD GOING CRAZY BECAUSE RICHARD SHERMAN JUST CRASHED OUR SET IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS HIGHLIGHT.  PETE  CARROLL IS ALL FIRED-UP CHEWING GUM AND ALL WHAT NOT.  14-3 IS THE SCORE.  WHEN RUSSELL WILSON AND .. RIGHT IN THE SHADOW OF HIS OWN GOAL LINE.  THERE WERE SOME PROTECTION ISSUES ON RUSSELL WILSON TONIGHT AND THIS ONE COST HIM, STEVE.  THERE WAS, AND THIS WAS A COVERAGE SACK RICH BECAUSE THERE WAS NO PLACE TO GO WITH THE FOOTBALL.  NOBODY COULD SEPARATE OPEN.  HE HELD THE BALL A LITTLE TOO LONG.  MATT SHAUGHNESSY FORCED IT LOOSE.  CALAIS CAMPBELL RECOVERED IT.  RASHARD MENDENHAHL TURNED IT INTO A TD. AND IT WAS 17-10 AT HALFTIME BUT 17-13 ON 3RD & 3.  A MONSTER PLAY RIGHT HERE.  THAT’S THE TYPE OF PLAY YOU CAN’T COACH.  YOU CAN’T STOP.  YOU CAN’T …  THIS GUY JUST KNOWS HOW TO MAKE PLAYS.  MOVING THE CHAINS RIGHT THERE.  CLEARLY HIS KNEE WAS NOT DOWN.  CLEARLY A CATCH BY MILLER MOVING THE CHAINS, AND THAT LED TO MARSHAWN LYNCH, 3 PLAYS LATER ON 2ND & 6.  THIS IS THE BEAST MODE WE REFERRED TO.  AND THIS IS THE ORIGINAL.  WHAT WE CALL O.G. BEASTING RIGHT HERE.  THAT’S ORIGINAL GANGSTER BEASTING.  THAT’S WHAT MARSHAWN LYNCH DID TONIGHT.  IT LOOKS LIKE LYNCH HAS GOT IT IN THE END ZONE.  O.G. BEASTING.  IT SEEMED LIKE IT WENT IN THE END ZONE BUT AFTER FURTHER REVIEW, IT WAS ON THE ½ INCH LINE.  SO IT JUST TURNED INTO A RUSSELL WILSON TO KELLEN DAVIS TD.  3RD TD. PASS OF THE GAME FOR WILSON.  24-13.  THAT’S WHEN THE LEGION OF BOOM MADE IT’S PRESENCE FELT.  BRANDON BROWNER WITH THE PICK RIGHT HERE.  ALMOST A PICK 60.  I DON’T KNOW HOW HE FALLS.  LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, THIS WAS A GREAT PLAY DEFENSIVELY BUT YOU COULD SEE PETE CARROLL.  WE CUT AWAY.  HE’S LAUGHING ON THE PLAY BECAUSE THIS IS HILARIOUS.  IT’S A LEAGUE-LEADING 11TH INTERCE4PTION FOR THE SEATTLE DEFENSE.  PALMER’S 13TH INTERCEPTIONS.  2ND MOST BEHIND ONLY ELI AND THAT ONE WAS A MARSHAWN LYNCH SCORE.  HIS 6TH RUSHING TD. ON THE YEAR, AND THAT ESSENTIALLY WRAPPED IT UP.  34-22 IS YOUR FINAL SCORE.  THE SEAHAWKS ARE 6-1 FOR THE FRIST TIME IN TEAM HISTORY.  AGAIN, THE CROWD HERE IS GOING CRAZY.

 BILLS AND THE DOLPHINS.  DOUG MARONE SAYING, “I GOT OUT OF SYRACUSE JUST IN TIME.  JOE PHILBIN AND THE DOLPHINS.  2ND IN RED ZONE OFFENSE.  DOLPHINS OPENING DRIVE, 3RD & 6 ON THEIR OWN 20.  RYAN TANNEHILL PICKED OFF BY UNDRAFTED ROOKIE NACKEL ROBY OUT OF U.S.C.  DOES THE FLIP INTO THE END ZONE.  THE BILLS CAME INTO THE GAME TIED FOR THE NFL LEAD IN PICKS.  2 DOLPHINS POSSESSIONS LATER, 3RD & 5 AT THE BILLS 17.  RYAN TANNEHILL LOOKING FOR BRIAN HARTLINE.  PICKED OFF BY AARON WILLIAMS IN THE END ZONE.  THAT SNAPPED A STREAK OF SCORING ON 14 STRAIGHT RED ZONE POSSESSIONS.  2ND QUARTER, DOLPHINS NEXT POSSESSION.  BILLS STILL LEAD 14-ZIP.  2ND & GOAL ON THE BILLS 7.  6TH PLAY OF THE DRIVE.  YOU THINK TANNEHILL’S LOOKING FOR MIKE WALLACE?  RIGHT BEFORE THE PLAY MIKE WALLACE RAISED HIS HAND AND SAID, “HEY LOOK OVER HERE, OVER HERE, OVER HERE.”  AND TANNEHILL DOES LOOK OVER THERE TO CHARLES CLAY WHO GOES IN FOR THE TD.  3RD TD. OF THE YEAR FOR CLAY.  DOLPHINS TRAIL, 14-7.  2 F.G. POSSESSIONS LATER, 2ND & 8 FROM THEIR OWN 19.  THAD LEWIS LOOKING FOR STEVE JOHNSON.  INSTEAD, CHRIS CLEMENS PICKS IT OFF AT THE 31.  IT’S HIS FIRST INTERCEPTION OF THE SEASON.  DOLPHINS NOW DRIVING TRAILING

17-7.  1ST 7 10 AT THE BILLS 13.  TANNEHILL THROWS IT SHORT TO BRANDON GIBSON WHO LEAPS INTO THE END ZONE AND DOES A FLIP!  SHADES OF NAT MOORE AND THE HELICOPTER AGAINST THE JETS.  WATCH IT AGAIN.  HE JUMPS FROM THE 3 YD. LINE.  THAT’S A LONG WAY TO JUMP.  YOU GO LOOK AT 3 YDS. AND SEE IF YOU CAN JUMP 3 YDS.  TAKE A HIT AND GOES IN.  DOLPHINS TRAIL 17-14 AT THE HALF.  JEROME SIMPSON SAYING, “I GOTTA FIND A WAY TO TOP THAT.”  3RD QUARTER, MIAMI’S OPENING POSSESSION 3RD & GOAL.  TANNEHILL ROLLS OUT.  GIBSON IN THE BACK OF THE END ZONE FOR THE TD.  DOLPHINS NOW LEAD 21-17.  THIS A GAME THAT LOOKS LIKE IT COULD BE GETTING AWAY FROM THE BILLS AS THE FANS SOMEHOW GET TO GIBSON.  LEWIS TO STEVIE JOHNSON.  MAKES A GREAT CATCH.  ROUGHING THE PASSER GETS CALLED ON THE PLAY.  I DON’T HAVE A HELMET ON!  YOU CALL THAT PENALTY!  WATCH IT AGAIN.  CHALANY JENKINS HITS HIM SO HARD THE HAT POPS OFF!  BUT HE IS UNFAZED.  THAT WOULD LEAD TO A DAN CARPENTER F.G.  BILLS TRAILING 21-20.  4TH QUARTER SAME SCORE.  TANNEHILL DROPS BACK AND HE GETS CRUNCHED BY MARIO WILLIAMS.  THAT WOULD LEAD TO A PUNT.  DOLPHINS FIRST IN THE NFL IN SACKS GIVEN UP GOING INTO THE GAME.  NEXT DOLPHINS POSSESSION, 2ND & 8 THAT THE 50.  3 MINS. LEFT TO GO.  TANNEHILL AGAIN SACKED BY MARIO WILLIAMS.  FUMBLE’S RECOVERED BY KYLE WILLIAMS AT THE 34 YD. LINE.  2ND SACK OF THE DAY.  WILLIAMS HAD 3 TACKLES, 2 SACKS AND 1 FORCED FUMBLE.  SO NOW THE BILLS TRAILING 21-20.  FRED JACKSON OFF-TACKLE FOR THE 1ST DOWN.  YARDS AFTER CONTACT.  KEEPING THE DRIVE ALIVE.  1ST DOWN AT THE DOLPHINS 18.  4 PLAYS LATER, 4TH & 5 AT THE 13.  36 SECS. LEFT.  DAN CARPENTER COMES IN FOR THE POTENTIAL GAME WINNER AND HE DRILLS IT, 23-21.  BILLS HAVE THE LEAD. ON THE KICKOFF, LET’S KICK IT SHORT.  LET’S NOT DO ANYTHING RASH.  MARCUS THIGPEN RETURNS THE SHORT KICK ALL THE WAY TO THE DOLPHINS 46 YD. LINE.  GETS TRIPPED-UP.  JUST THERE BY CARPENTER ON WHAT COULD’VE BEEN EVEN MORE.  DOLPHINS HAVE 23 SECS. LEFT.  NOT TOO FAR FROM F.G. RANGE.  BUT THE DOLPHINS DRIVE STALLS.  FINAL PLAY OF THE GAME.  TANNEHILL’S GOTTA THROW TO THE END ZONE.  ESCAPES THE SACK.  GETS A LOT ON THIS BALL, ALL THE WAY TO THE END ZONE, AND CHARLES CLAY IS THE GUY STANDING THERE.  I DON’T KNOW IF HE’S THE GUY YOU WANT AND IT’S INCOMPLETE.  THE BILLS HOLD ON TO WIN 23-21.

 

01:17:01 – NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS @ N.Y. JETS

 PATRIOTS AND THE JETS.  IN CASE YOU DIDN’T KNOW, ROB GRONKOWSKI WAS BACK.  WE SPENT A LITTLE BIT OF TIME ON THAT THIS WEEK AT THE NFL NETWORK.  NOT A LOT.  JUST A LITTLE BIT.  HOW DID HE DO HIS FIRST GAME THIS SEASON AFTER 5 SURGERIES IN THE PAST YEAR?  1ST QUARTER, THERE’S GRONK.  HIS FIRST CATCH OF THE YEAR.  12 YDS.  4 PLAYS LATER, IT WAS GRONKOWSKI AGAIN FOR 30 YDS. DOWN TO THE JETS 1.  BRANDON BOLDEN WOULD SCORE ON A 1 YD. TD. RUN.  2 PLAYS LATER GRONK HAD 54 YDS. RECEIVING IN THE 1ST HALF.  HOW ABOUT GENO SMITH LOOKING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF A PATS DEFENSE WITHOUT VINCE WILFORK, TOMMY KELLY, JAROD MAYO, AKEB TOLEB, TEDY BRUSCHI, MIKE VRABLE.  1ST POSSESSION SMITH FINDS JEREMY CURLY FOR THE 12 YD. TD.  IT WOULD BE A 7-7 GAME.  THEN A 14-7 GAME AFTER THIS PLAY.  GENO SMITH FINDS LOGAL RYAN WHO JUMPS THROUGH.  HE GOES 79 YDS. FOR THE TD.  PATRIOTS LEAD 14-7.  3RD QUARTER, PATRIOTS UP 21-10 WITH THE BALL.  THIS IS THE PLAY THAT CHANGED THE COMPLEXION OF THE GAME.  BRADY HAS TIME, LOOKING FOR ROB GRONKOWSKI DEEP IN HIS OWN TERRITORY.  BUT ANTONIO ALLEN WHO WAS SHADOWING GRONK MOST OF THE DAY, STEPS IN FRONT OF THE PASS.  RUNS DOWN THE SIDELINE.  DIVES INTO THE END ZONE FOR THE PICK 6.  TONS OF DEF. TDS. IN THE NFL TODAY.  BRADY’S 3RD GAME WITH AN INTERCEPTION.  PATRIOTS LEAD DOWN NOW.  DOWN TO 21-17.  2 JETS POSSESSIONS LATER, SAME SCORE.  LOOK AT GENO SMITH.  TAKES OFF RIGHT.  MAKES A BIG JUKE AND DIVES INTO THE END ZONE FOR THE TD.  HIS 2ND RUSHING TD.  AFTER THAT, MARK SANCHEZ TWEETED OUT, “I SEE YOU G!”  WATCH IT AGAIN.  THE ONLY THING GENO SMITH DIDN’T DO WAS CONVERT ON THE SPIKE…  THAT’S O.K.  WE’LL WORK ON THAT.  WE’LL SPEND SOME TIME IN PRACTICE ON WED.  WE’LL WORK ON SPIKES.  JETS LEAD 24-21.  4TH QUARTER.  PATS BALL TRAILING 27-21.  BRADY THROWS IT TO BRANDON BOLDIN WHO TAKES IT DOWN TO THE 1 YD. LINE BUT A FLAG ON THE PLAY.  GRONKOWSKI GETS CALLED FOR AN ILLEGAL PICK.  WATCH AGAIN.  GRONKOWSKI IS THE GUY.  HE BLOCKS DAVID HARRIS, FREES UP BOLDIN BUT HE’S CALLED FOR THE PENALTY.  3 PLAYS LATER 3RD & 3.  IT’S BRADY LOOKING FOR GRONKOWSKI.  EITHER NOT ON THE SAME PAGE OR HE DIDN’T SEE THE BALL.  CAN’T MAKE THE CATCH.  BRADY CAN’T BELIEVE IT.  UH, THAT WAS A TD!  THEY SETTLE FOR A 39 YD. F.G.  PATS TRAIL 27-24.  ENSUING JETS POSSESSION, GENO SMITH LOOKING FOR A BIG PLAY.  STEVEN HILL CATCHES IT FOR THE TD.  BUT RIGHT AWAY THE PATRIOTS LOOKING FOR A FLAG.  THEY GET IT.  HILL CALLED FOR OFF. PASS INTERFERENCE ON THE PUSH-OFF.  NO TD.  A LITTLE SHOVE TO DEVIN MCCORDY.  JETS WOULD BE FORCED TO PUNT.  SO HERE’S THE PATS TRYING TO TIE THE GAME.  ROB GRONKOWSKI NEARLY MAKES THE TREMENDOUS ONE-HANDED CATCH.  BUT CAN’T HOLD ON.  GRONK THOUGHT HE HAD IT.  SO, TO GO TO OVERTIME, STEVE GOSKOWSKI RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE.  SO IT’S O.T. TIED 27-27.  GRONK STILL CAN’T BELIEVE THE DROP.  OVERTIME PATRIOTS OPENING POSSESSION.  3RD & 10 AT THEIR OWN 38.  4TH PLAY.  BRADY THROWS RIGHT TO JULIAN EDELMAN BUT IT’S OVERTHROWN.  PATS FORCED TO PUNT.  ENSUING JETS POSSESSION.  JETS RELIED HEAVILY ON CHRIS IVORY.  3RD & 5 HE RUNS UP THE MIDDLE AND GETS STUFFED.  THEY WOULD HAVE TO ATTEMPT A 56 YD. F.G. FOR THE WIN.  HERE COMES NICK FOLK.  DOESN’T HAVE ONE OVER 50 THIS YEAR.  56…DOVETAILS TO THE LEFT BUT AN UNSPORTSMANLIKE PENALTY CALLED ON ROOKIE CHRIS JONES.  JETS WOULD GET A 1ST DOWN AND ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY.  PUSHING ONE OF HIS OWN PLAYERS IN THROUGH.  THE UNSPORTSMANLIKE PENALTY FLAG WAS THROWN RIGHT AWAY.  4 PLAYS LATER, NICK FOLK FROM 42 YDS.  THIS IS WHAT NICK FOLK DOES.  A FOLK HERO FOR THE JETS.  THEY WIN 30-27 IN O.T.  THEY BREAK A 6 GAME LOSING STREAK TO THE PATRIOTS.  GENO SMITH 233 & 2 TDS. AND THE VICTORY.  REX JUST A LITTLE EXCITED.

 

01:21:32 – SAN DIEGO CHARGERS @ JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS

 TO JACKSONVILLE WE GO.  THE CHARGERS AND THE JAGUARS.  JUSTIN BLACKMON 14 CATCHES, A BUCK 90 AGAINST THE BRONCOS LAST WEEK UNDER PHILIP RIVERS WOULD BE SOLID FROM START TO FINISH.  HE WAS 6 FOR 6 ON THE OPENING DRIVE.  AN UNDERRATED SIGNING IN THE OFFSEASON DANNY WOODEN.  YES.  NICE JOB.  THE POOL MAN IS DARREN SPROLES IF YOU WOULD.  HE UNDERSTANDS THE PASSING GAME.  DOES A GOOD JOB.  KNEW HOW TO GET INTO THE END ZONE.  GETTING AFTER THE QB.  CHAD HENNE WOULD REALIZE EARLY THAT THE CHARGERS FRONT CAME TO PLAY.  AND THEY HAVE DONE THIS.  YOU TALK ABOUT WHAT THEY DID LAST WEEK COMING OFF OF A SHORT WEEK PLAYING THE MONDAY NIGHT GAME.  EVERYBODY TALKS ABOUT THE WEST COAST-EAST COAST TRAVEL BUT THIS DEF. LINE GOT AFTER HENNE AND THIS OFF. LINE OF JACKSONVILLE WHICH IS NOT TOO TOUGH TO DO.  BUT THEY HAVE PLAYED WELL THIS YEAR.  S.D. OFFENSE CONTINUED TO FIND SUCCESS ON THE GROUND, THROUGH THE AIR.  RIVERS TO A WIDE OPEN KEENAN ALLEN.  26 YDS.  THAT’S GONNA BE A COMMON THEME PAUL.  WIDE OPEN.  EDDIE ROYAL ALSO FOUND IT GOING FAIRLY EASY AGAINST THAT JAGUARS SECONDARY.  3 PLAYS LATER ON THE SAME DRIVE.  EARLY IN THE 2ND QUARTER, PLENTY OF TIME FOR PHILIP RIVERS AND THERE’S EDDIE ROYAL THERE.  WHAT IS HE AGAIN PAUL?  HE’S IN CHARGE OF TOUCHDOWNS.  WIDE OPEN?  I CUT HIM TODAY OUT OF MY FANTASY FOOTBALL TEAM.  POOR DECISION.  POOR MGMT.  80 YDS., 6 MINS. AND HERE’S SOME MORE CHARGERS MOVEMENT.  THAT’S KEENAN ALLEN.  GETS UP, RUNS FOR 36 MORE YDS.  PHILIP RIVERS, I’M TELLING YOU I’VE BEEN SAYING IT ALL YEAR LONG.  THIS GUY CAN PLAY QB.  SOME BAD THINGS HAVE HAPPENED.  HE’S GOT SOME FRESH AIR.  NOW LET’S GIVE KENNY WHISENHUNT A LOT OF CREDIT AS WELL  CREATING AN OFFENSE IS NOT THE BIG PLAYS THAT WE USED TO SEE.  4 PLAYS LATER, AGAIN.  PLENTY OF TIME FOR PHILIP RIVERS.  HE KEEPS IT HIMSELF THOUGH.  HOW OFTEN DO YOU SEE THAT?  NOT OFTEN.  THAT’S PROBABLY THE MOST PRODUCTIVE PLAY, A QB DRAW FROM THE 5 YD. IN.  ESPECIALLY FROM A QB THAT’S NOT USED TO RUNNING THAT PLAY AND YOU DON’T EXPECT TO BE MOBILE.  CAME UP SHORT THERE ON THAT PLAY.  NOW IN THE 4TH QUARTER ALONG THE JAGS 32.  QUICK SCREEN TO EDDIE ROYAL.  CUTS BACK BUT PUTS THE BALL ON THE GROUND EVENTUALLY.  ALL LOOKS GOOD HERE.  SURE DOES.  LOOKS REAL GOOD.  AND STILL GOOD THERE.  TOUCHBACK.  MIKE MCCOY WOULD THROW A CHALLENGE FLAG AND PHILIP RIVERS SEES THE FLAG AND TRIES TO HIDE IT SINCE ALL TURNOVERS ARE AUTOMATICALLY REVIEWED.  MCCOY LOSES ONE TIMEOUT FOR ILLEGALLY THROWING A CHALLENGE FLAG.  HOW ABOUT THAT PLAY?  HE TRIES TO KICK IT OUT OF THERE!  NEXT PLAY 1ST & GOAL.  RYAN MATTHEWS FIGHTING HIS WAY ACROSS THE STRIP.  CHARGERS UP 24-6.  RYAN MATTHEWS AT 110 YDS. RUSHING AND THAT 1 TD.  AND A TD.  RYAN MATTHEWS ASSERTING HIMSELF.  A COUPLE OF JAGUARS POSSESSIONS LATER.  CHAD HENNE LOOKING FOR JUSTIN BLACKMON BUT THAT ONE IS PICKED OFF.  MARCUS GILCHRIST.  KIND OF WHAT WE’VE SEEN OUT OF THIS JAGUAR TEAM.  JUST INEPT.  JUST CANNOT GET ANYTHING DONE.  JAGUARS OFFENSE REMAINS FUTILE AND THE PAPER BAGS HAVE COME OUT.  PHILIP RIVERS EXCITED.  NOT THE PAPER BAGS.  CHARGERS HAVE WON 2 GAMES IN A ROW AND THE JAGUARS REMAIN WINLESS.  WOW.  HOW CAN YOU BE BAD FOR SO LONG?

 

01:24:55 – DALLAS COWBOYS @ PHILADELPHIA EAGLES

 COWBOYS AND THE EAGLES.  TONY ROMO AND NICK FOLES WITH THESE 2 OFFENSES.  WHAT DO YOU THINK?  70, 80, 90, 150 PTS.

WILCOX.  PLAY IS UNDER REVIEW.  CHIP KELLY ARGUING WITH THE REFEREES.  JASON AVANTE WANTS THE CALL REVERSED. PLEASE REVERSE THIS CALL.  WATCH IT AGAIN.  THE TIP OF THE BALL HITS THE GROUND.  THE CALL IS REVERSED AND RULED AN INCOMPLETE PASS.  THAT WAS SOME KIND OF EXTREME CLOSE-UP.  JASON GARRETT SAYS, “REALLY, WE DIDN’T GET THAT PLAY?”  6 PLAYS LATER IT’S NICK FOLES SACKED BY GEORGE SELBY AND JARIUS WYNN FOR A LOSS OF 4.  FOLES IS SLOW TO GET UP AFTER THIS.  THEY WOULD SETTLE FOR A 31 YD.

01:33:22 – CINCINNATI BENGALS @ DETROIT LIONS

BENGALS AND THE LIONS.  MATTHEW STAFFORD WOULD HAVE CALVIN JOHNSON ALL DAY, LUCKILY FOR THE LIONS.  UNFORTUNATELY, ANDY DALTON WOULD HAVE A.J. GREEN.  FIRST QUARTER NO SCORE.  1ST & 15 FROM THEIR OWN 18.  HEY A.J.  HOW ABOUT YOU JUST GO LONG?  I’LL THROW IT AS FAR AS I CAN.  AND THAT IS ENOUGH.  BEATS CHRIS HOUSTON.  82 YDS. LATER A.J. GREEN IS IN THE END ZONE.  WATCH AGAIN THAT DOUBLE MOVE.  RIGHT HERE.  TURN THOSE HIPS.  THAT’S IT.  ACTUALLY I JUST STOP AND SLOW DOWN FOR THE FOOTBALL.  BENGALS GO UP 7-0.  HOW ABOUT CALVIN JOHNSON?  QUIET WEEK A WEEK AGO AFTER BEING INACTIVE 2 WKS. BEFORE THAT.  HERE WAS CALVIN CHECKING THE 1ST HALF.  IN THE END ZONE IT’S CALVIN.  CAN’T COME DOWN WITH IT.  ON THE SIDELINE, CALVIN JOHNSON, WHERE HE EATS.  CAN’T COME DOWN WITH THAT.  CALVIN AGAIN IN THE END ZONE TRYING TO HANG ONTO THE FOOTBALL.  TAKES A HUGE HIT. JOHNSON DID HAVE 40 YDS. RECEIVING IN THE 1ST HALF.  HE SAYS, “I’M O.K.  JUST WAIT TILL THE 2ND HALF.”  3RD QUARTER BENGALS BALL UP 14-10.  DALTON LOOKING TO ROOKIE TYLER IFER.  HE MAKES THE CATCH FALLING INTO THE END ZONE FOR THE 32 YD.

TD.  CALVIN SHOWS HOW INJURED HE IS BY STILL DUNKING THE FOOTBALL OVER THE GOALPOST WITH A 360.  I THINK CALVIN’S O.K.  4TH QUARTER LIONS BALL DOWN 24-17.  CALVIN REALLY WAS JUST WARMING UP.  THIS IS LIKE ONE OF THOSE H.S. PLAYS WHERE THE ONE RECEIVER IS LIKE 6’5 AND YOU HAVE SOME 5’9 D.B.’S HANGING AROUND.  IT’S A JUMP BALL INTO THE END ZONE AND CALVIN OUT-JUMPS EVERYBODY FOR THE 50 YD. TD.  WATCH IT AGAIN.  WHY DON’T THEY DO BETTER ON HAIL MARY’S?  JOHNSON FINISHED WITH 155 YDS.
