The Next Dynamic Duos Of The AFC

Dynamic Duos of the AFC?

For this installment of Dynamic Duos, lets get some things out on the table first.

–          The AFC is full of Rookies and First Timers.  First Timers are almost like rookies except they have experience but are with new teams, new coaches, and new personnel.

–          The AFC is full of teams vying for top position on the Neilson Reality TV Ratings and Headline Media Wars.  It’s like reading a who’s who of upcoming tv shows for the fall season.

 

 

And like my Dynamic Duos of the NFC, I will purposely ignore (some) of the obvious ones.

After all, we are trying to pick the Next Dynamic Duos.

So, who are the contestants?

First up:  NY Jets

The Real Quarterbacks of New York

Yes folks, let us all welcome the new reality TV show “The Real Quarterbacks of New York”.  After a couple false starts and leaked news / video clips the producers of this new show, the New York Jets, officially kick it off with a media news conference introducing their newest co-star; Tim Tebow.

The other co-star, Mark Sanchez, is no stranger to media attention and the glamour of the show and is firmly entrenched as the bumbling prima donna of the sitcom.  With his temper tantrums, and frequent off field activities with wine, women and song, he has a firm hold on the starting role; for now.

Tim Tebow brings a new world order of sorts with his own brand of ethics, on field and off field drama, and heroics.  In addition to his football talents and innate leadership talents, he is also known to dabble in the art of healing hands and exorcisms (of sorts).

When Brian Dawkins missed playing time last season with a pinched nerve in his neck, he shared an encounter with Tebow that few were witness to.

“In our Bible study sessions, when my neck was pretty bad and I’m hurting, (Tebow), along with our chaplain and (Broncos director of player development), Jerry Butler, laid hands and prayed on me pretty good,” Dawkins told FOX Sports “They brought snot and tears to my eyes and all that type of good stuff with prayer.

Snot and tears to your eyes!

Now that is entertainment!

So now we have the start of a brand new Reality TV season with The Real Quarterbacks of New York” playing out in front of us on a daily basis.

Mark Sanchez will continue to swing childish taunts to his teammates.  Tim Tebow will win them over with his natural healing and leadership talents.

Mark Sanchez will continue to swing in the nightclubs with his lady friends.  Tim Tebow will be seen swinging golf clubs with Trump on the golf course.

Tim Tebow will be moving in right next door to Mark in The Donald’s very own private community.

Yes folks, pull up a seat, get your tissues ready, pour yourself a drink and get ready to watch!  This guarantees to be a fun filled action packed season of “The Real Quarterbacks of New York”.

I wonder if Tim’s locker will be right next to Marks as well?

What If . . .

The game of football is filled with what if’s and if only’s. If this or, if not this, then; or here, we would have won or gotten into the playoffs or been a hero instead of goat.

This year proved to have it’s fair share.

What if:

The Chargers were about to kick the game-winning field goal with less than a minute to go against the Chiefs. As it turns out, this win would have propelled them into the playoffs.

And then Rivers fumbled, the game went into OT, and the Chargers lost a game they would have won if Rivers simply held onto the pigskin.

What if:

Mark Sanchez would grow a pair . . .

And be the stud QB he thinks he is.

The AFC Wild Card race was a gigantic mess. But in the end, New York would be in if they beat the Giants and Dolphins the last two weeks.  Last week, the Jets were driving down 16-10 late in the game when Sanchez threw a pick at the Dolphins 10 yard line.  If they can score there, and hold on for a 17-16, they’re in.

Not exactly One Play Away, but still close.

What if:

The Cowboys Kicker was not susceptible to the cold. . .

Jason Garrett drew the scorn of Cowboys fans everywhere when he managed to ice his own kicker against the Cardinals.  But one week later, it was Giants coach Tom Coughlin who iced the Cowboy’s Dan Bailey.

Bailey seemingly sent the game to OT and gave the Cowboys another chance to clinch the NFC East crown. But it turned out Coughlin had called a timeout, and he (of course) missed the next attempt.

What if:

Jay Cutler was not sooo fragile . . .

Cutler threw a pick with 10 minutes left in the Bears’ game against the Chargers.  To his credit, he hustled back down field and nudged Antoine Cason out of bounds before he could score a TD.

To his discredit, he broke his thumb on the tackle and the Bears sunk like a rock.

What if:

And last but certainly not least. . .

Chaz Schilens did not fall down.

Chaz Schilens slipped and couldn’t catch a 3rd-and-two pass from Carson Palmer against the Lions.  The Raiders pinned the Lions deep, but Stafford led them down the field for the heart-stopping 28-27 win.

If Oakland simply converts that 3rd-and-two, they’re in the playoffs, and Tebow’s out.

 

What if:

Everybody else who did not make the playoffs didn’t $ucked soo much to be considered for this list . . .

Mark Sanchez Can’t Avoid The Sack

It appears that Mark Sanchez has not been able to avoid the sack this year.

He has been sacked 32 times on the field so far.

It is unclear how many times he has been sacked off the field . . .

Personally, I think he is confused and by the mixed signals he has been seeing both on, and off, the field.

 

 

 

 

Here is what he sees on the field . . .

 

 

Here is what he sees off the field . . .

 

Which ones one would you pay more attention to?
