Season 1: Conference Round

SantryRed · 28-12-2012 12:42am #1

NFC

New Orleans Saints @ Washington Redskins

AFC

Kansas City Chiefs/Jacksonville Jaguars @ New York Jets

This is from the 29th onwards as the Chiefs/Jags will hopefully play tomorrow night. I've stuck this up so hopefully we can get the Superbowl played by about the 4th of January. I am going to set up a Doodle poll now from the 7th onwards for people's preferences to do the draft. If the Superbowl is delayed, we'll just move everything back a week and run the draft the next week.

Raoul,

I can do Saturday about 3-7 if you could.

If not, I'm away 30th Dec-1st Jan, so could play 1st Jan from 17:00 onwards. Could probably play early on the 30th of December too if you were about.

Not sure what time I'm about tomorrow. Depends on the hangover. Any chance you could do during the day on Wednesday? Like early afternoon?

Once it's not too early I'm in!!! What time suits? Staying up for the Orange Bowl.

SantryRed · 01-01-2013 11:49pm

Or if you wanted to get it done now I could before the Rose Bowl gets into the 4th quarter. Your choice!!

Raoul · 02-01-2013 12:09am

Yeah lets go!!!

SantryRed · 02-01-2013 12:10am

I did Dave. 35-20. Will post up a report in the next 20 mins.

Washington Redskins 35-20 New Orleans Saints

The first game crapped out on us at 10-7 Saints so we restarted with the Saints up 3-0.

The game was two offenses, taking long drives and scoring on most possessions. The key to both offenses were their running backs, Sproles running riot for the Saints and Helu Jr. running wild for the Redskins.

The pivotal moments of the game where when the Saints Defenses got going. When they forced a 3 and out on the Redskins offense, they couldn't capitalize with any points. They forced a fumble too which they couldn't turn into any points. And then crucially, at 21-17 to the Redskins, the Redskins punted from their own 2 yard line, but the Saints could only take a field goal to make it 21-20. Helu Jr. then broke off a big run out of a shotgun formation for a touchdown to make it 28-20, and then with the Saints driving and only 3 minutes left, Devery Henderson broke free on a streak, and when Brees pulled back the trigger to let it go, he was hit by Kerrigan for a sack fumble, which was returned to make it 35-20 to the Redskins and give the Saints too much to do. Very controversial play as both players thought it should have been an incomplete pass.

Stats:

Robert Griffin III: 13/15 for 190 yards 2 TDs 0 INTs
Drew Brees: 10/15 for 140 yards 0 TDs 1 INT and crucially 1 fumble

Helu Jr: 21 attempts for 161 yards and 1 TD
Sproles: 22 attempts for 184 yards and 2 TDs

Thanks a lot for the game Eamonn!!

Raoul · 02-01-2013 4:29pm

Yeah great game. Another big big play was when I was driving downfield and I think my TE got a pass and was stopped on the 1 yard line with 7 seconds to go before the 2 minute warning. I then was stopped in the backfield with Sproles and then I threw an interception.

Once again you knock me out in the playoffs.

Very enjoyable game though. I can't wait to upgrade my D somewhat in the off season.

Has this game been moved back now due to the schedule being changed?
