You aren’t bashing your coaches at all. You are trying to talk yourself into believing Jones will be an adequate QB. Having said that, I wish you personally the best. We can agree to disagree about football and I suspect your motives. In the end it’s a game. Enjoy the off-season. See you next year.

Thanks. That is some good info. Sometimes the Bangedup Bills guy will provide an in game diagnosis based off what he sees.

Seriously, Cassel is like you have no clue what you are talking about and never played the game.

Any news on Mario Addison’s shoulder injury? Anyone able to see what happened?

That dude in particular looked great.

Yea, when you lose by 30 in the playoffs, you are going to get scrutinized pretty closely. Particularly when you are in a market like Boston.

Here is the thing. Jones already has reading a defense down and the little nuances of the game. Thins most rookies need to work on. Jones’ footwork isn’t the problem, he has the fundamentals down. What he doesn’t have is elite athletic talent, which is what you need to be good to great in the NFL. Jones is Chad Pennington or a less athletic Fitzpatrick. I just don’t see how you improve arm strength at this point.

You are right. That first pass to Knox was a thing of beauty. Jones will never be able to make that pass though because he isn’t athletic enough to move around and elude pass rushers for almost 10 seconds.

Well he is a Jumbo human being so…

Let’s see how that goes next year when players ask, “didn’t Buffalo practice indoors and then kick our butts?”.

Rapist? Care to elaborate?

I didn’t see this but will take your word for it. I am sure Bill did not like the fact the Bills kept putting up points after the game was out of hand, but there was a purpose for that. McDermott was sending a message that the Bills are by far better and that he isn’t scared of Belichick trying to get retribution next year. McDermott knows as long as Jones is on the Pats sideline and Allen is on his sideline, the Pats lose 9 out of 10 times.

It is to soon to help them, they are still in the pre-contemplation stage of change. They really aren’t even aware their team isn’t very good anymore and thus aren’t ready to discuss possible approaches for change.

Couldn’t agree more. As Bills fans we are experts on mediocre QB play. Pats fans are still adjusting to it. They hold onto the few good throws Jones makes and think he will get to a place where those will be the throws he always makes. We lived in denial for 20 years. I hope the Pats get that same experience, they are off to a good start with Cam and now Jones.

You will have the next year or two at least to defend Jones. I look forward to our conversations.

This is why I like Portnoy, he calls it like he sees it and isn’t afraid to say the truth, even about his own team.

Maybe I am spoiled watching Josh throw the ball so much better.

And they won’t be because they don’t have a QB. Belichick in his heart knows Jones is limited with what he can do physically.

The end of the Dynasty. The Boogey man is dead.

I just wished it had landed on Bournes helmet and stuck like a Unicorn horn.

Josh is head and shoulders above Jones, I won’t argue that. If Jones had played better the Pats could have hung around for a little while instead of getting runoff the field by halftime.

If he throws that ball with less air it doesn’t get picked off. Go back and watch how Josh Allen throws the ball, you will understand better.

True. Thanks for your post, I like hearing from Wyoming fans. My point to that Pats fan was this: how can someone be a great coach if they can’t develop or coach someone up? McDaniels has been an OC for 18 years with NE. I find it hard to believe that McDaniels and Belichick wouldn’t want Josh. Sounds more like someone who is a blind loyalist.

He is right. The Pats are done. Belichick can’t overcome an average QB. I am being generous calling him average.

Pal, you have no clue what you are talking about. Josh his rookie year could have won as many games with the Pats roster this year. To say Belichick and McDaniels couldn’t develop Josh is just dumb.
