2006 MLB PLAYOFFS – AL DIVISIONAL SERIES by Patrick Stanton Oakland A’s vs. Minnesota Twins Offense: Neither team exactly set fire to the offensive statistic books this season, but when you have such weapons as Frank Thomas, Nick Swisher, Joe Mauer and Justin Morneau in your arsenal, statistics become a moot point. As both teams have… Read more

by Patrick Stanton JetNation Senior Columnist QUARTERBACK Brooks Bollinger (11/20, 153 yards, 0 TD, 0 INT) B He didn’t win the game, but he didn’t give it away either. When your #3 QB is starting, this is important. Excellent throws on the bombs to Coles and Cotchery as Bollinger continues to show a strong arm… Read more

by Patrick Stanton JetNation Senior Columnist QUARTERBACK Brooks Bollinger (11/19, 100 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT, 1 Fumble) C+ He wasn’t exactly electric for the Jets tonight, but when you watch the opposing team go 31 plays before getting a chance to sniff the ball again, what can you expect? Add to that a pocket… Read more

by Patrick Stanton JetNation Senior Columnist QUARTERBACK Brooks Bollinger (28/42, 327 yards, 2 TD, 0 INT) A+ Ladies and gentlemen, you’ve just witnessed the Brooks Bollinger coming out party. What is there to say really? Bollinger played an exceptional game by all standards, let alone the standards pertaining to a 3rd string QB. He stayed… Read more

by Patrick Stanton JetNation Senior Columnist TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (9-4) @ NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (8-5) The master of injury report manipulation is at it again as everyone, including Tom Brady himself, wonders how bad the injury to Brady really is.

by Patrick Stanton JetNation Senior Columnist QUARTERBACK Brooks Bollinger (14/26, 119, 1 TD 0 INT / 6 rushes, 56 yards): B+ We learned two things this week: Bollinger excels against terrible defenses and playing at home.

by Patrick Stanton JetNation Senior Columnist DETROIT LIONS (4-8) @ GREEN BAY PACKERS (2-10) Can you smell that? That’s the stench emanating from this game of two NFC bottom feeders.

by Patrick Stanton JetNation Senior Columnist QUARTERBACK Brooks Bollinger (15/37, 135, 0 TD 1 INT): F This kid goes up and down more then Paris Hilton in night vision. After looking good against a poor Saints defense last week, he faced a Patriots Defense that ranked statistically worse and managed to make them look like… Read more

by Patrick Stanton JetNation Senior Columnist TENNESSEE TITANS (3-8) @ INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (11-0) I thought the Steelers were going to be the team to finally beat the Colts and I was dead wrong.

by Patrick Stanton JetNation Senior Columnist QUARTERBACK Brooks Bollinger (19/28, 251, 1 TD, 0 INT): A- What more could you ask from the kid?

by Patrick Stanton JetNation Senior Columnist Baltimore Ravens (3-7) @ Cincinnati Bengals (7-3) You scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours.
