Bad day for Atlanta ...

On Monday Night Football, Mike Nolan's Falcons' defense plays soft in a two-minute drill and allows a rookie quarterback to mount a game-winning drive to end the game. Jets win 30-28.

In Los Angeles, Braves' reliever David Carpenter surrenders a two-strike two run home run to Juan Uribe, and the Dodgers come from behind to win the National League Divisional series three games to one.

Wow.

After reading about how Dodgers fans almost beat a guy to death, I can see where they'd think twice.

I was one of the 13.1% that picked the Jets. I actually only needed them to lose by 9 points or less.
