Pats will never win another bowl with Tom Brady. Don't be surprised when they get knocked out of the playoffs yet again this year.
When it comes down to it, the best teams in the NFL know how to beat the Patriots when it really counts.
-
In the four games prior, two close games were put in his hands and he won them. So...yeah.
How'd that work out for us in the past 2 games?
-
Well, the #1 ranked pass defense let two receivers run wide open into the endzone. So, I'm not sure how that factors in. Also, this Orton fella, wasn't it only two games prior that he threw two passes (one on 4th and 20) the other down to the half yard line to set up a THIRD pass, the game winner? So...? That never happened? I'm confused.
And if you're saying our coaches suck because our QB sucks...congrats, you just made my point for me.
How many potentially game-winning passes do you think he's missed in his career? Is the coach only supposed to take into consideration his last two games out of the dozens and dozens he's played in his career?
He's not Tom Brady. He's not Peyton Manning. You don't put the entire game in his hands like that in the redzone when your running back is averaging 6.1 yards per carry in a game. They were bad calls.
I love how people seem to think coaches aren't supposed to know the limitations of their players when calling plays. "Orton sucks! It's not Marrone's fault! How was Marrone supposed to know Orton wasn't Aaron Rodgers???"
-
Those were throws that Orton has made in the past, and the defense had no bearing on the plays as the recievers were open. Try again.
They were also throws that Orton has missed in the past. Plenty of times I'm sure.YOU try again.
-
And again, two of them would have netted go-ahead TD's had the thrown been anywhere near where it was supposed to be.
So, I'm sorry. What are you trying to convince me? That the those playcalls sucked?
It's a shame would haves don't count or we'd still be in the playoff race. And yeah, they were bad play calls. Anyone that doesn't take into consideration who their quarterback is (a career .500 QB) and what defense they're facing (#1 ranked against the pass) is an idiot and shouldn't be coaching an NFL team.
-
How many yards did those 5 passes net?
-
The point is that Dixon was averaging over 6 yards per carry that game. Does it being 5 pass attempts in the redzone out of 7 plays instead of 6 straight passes make any difference when discussing whether or not they were bad play calls? Absolutely not.
It sounds like your case is the one that sucks.
Nevermind fans, commentators, mainstream media, and now players are all commenting on the bad play calling. YOU must be the one that has it right. Everyone else is just crazy.
-
Oh sorry, 5 passes out of 7 plays instead of 6 passes. HUGE DIFFERENCE.
-
Well, the first thing never happened. And if even it did happen the way you said it did, you mean to tell me that on two of those passes where receivers were running wide open in the endzone and the QB just missed them...that's...the coach's fault?
Okay.
It's clear you're willing to reassess your assumptions.
Also, two plays in two games does not three plays make.
Actually it did happen.
And yeah, because I named 2 instead of your arbitrarily demanded 3 examples my point is totally invalid. I also named 6 stupid plays instead of 5.
-
If it's as bad as everyone says, between the two games, name five bad play calls and three scaredy cat decisions.
6 straight passes in the redzone when Boobie Dixon is averaging 6.1 yards per carry in that game(KC)
Not going for it on 4th down at their 4 yard line(KC)
Not going for it on 4th down with 8 minutes left when you're down by 10(MIA)
-
Exaaaactly, not to mention if its so easy why don't teams go for it more often? It's just a step dudes!
Most other teams don't have a defense ranked in the top 10 like the Bills do.
-
its a fine line between constructive debate and fracturing a locker room. i wont judge which side this is on, but it could probably be an indicator of deeper running issues.
It's one thing when a player is part of the problem and publicly trying to blame others, or when the criticism is unwarranted, but Aaron simply said what everyone else has been thinking all along. I can't fault the guy.
-
I can only imagine how frustrated the defense is. They're a playoff caliber defense for sure. And wasted another year. How long will we be able to keep these guys together?
-
This whole idea that players should keep their mouths shut is stupid imo. If the players have a problem with the way the coach is calling plays, just like EVERYONE else in the media and fanbase does, they should say something about it. I'm sure they're a lot more frustrated than we as fans are that they probably won't make the playoffs this year. Saying what he did is a lot better than saying what he's probably really thinking; "Get rid of this bum because he's holding the team back and we should be in the playoffs."
-
Good for Williams. He said before the season started he wanted to step up this year and become a leader on this team. Leaders speak up. And his play has certainly been solid. Glad we locked him up with a contract last year.
-
Honest question: besides a few errant throws that landed right in his lap, was Kiko's rookie season THAT much more impressive than Preston Brown's has been? Not saying Brown's has been better but people forget that Kiko really cooled off after the first six games or so last year. Either way, I am psyched to have both of them starting next year.
Yes. I remember a section of an all-22 last year dedicated to breaking down a couple plays in slow motion to show how fast Kiko was to diagnose and react to plays. He starts to react to a play before most of the other players even diagnose it. It was pretty amazing to see in super-slow motion.
-
Failure to adjust their offensive gameplan after teams had time to review their tape and strategies is why they've sucked these past couple weeks imo. It's a macrocosm of the problems we see with them always being out-adjusted at halftime.
-
Have a fix for your tattoo..
THANKS BRO
-
We were cool until you tried to be a smartass about my tattoo. That's team dedication. I take that **** seriously. :/
-
Crazy right? Censorship knows no bounds.
-
How can we be so unprepared for every opponent? What did we do in our bye week to prepare for the Chiefs? Did we overlook them and get ready for Miami? I don't think so. We have **** the bed the last two weeks. What are these coaches doing?????
How the !@#$ do I know? Our roster is slightly more talented than Miami's imo. The only reason we lost was because of coaching. Which sucks because I was such a huge Marrone advocate and a Hackett apologist up until today. It doesn't feel great to have to admit you were wrong.
-
Re. Your tattoo: upper back or lower back??
Shoulder

What I have to say is very simple. People have called me a homer for as long as I've been posting on Buffalo Bills forums. I actually got banned from BBMB for mother!@#$ing pessimistic posters.
But now that I've gotten suckered into a season I truly believed in and am forced to realize we'll miss the playoffs yet again, I'm conceding. I will not spend another dime on Bills tickets or gear until they make the playoffs. The Bills tattoo I got back in August is burning a hole in my back.Maybe I'll keep it under wraps for a couple years.
It's a playoff roster without a doubt. The only thing left to blame is coaching.
-
Our redzone offense is absolutely terrible. It's literally the only thing that's stopping us from being a playoff team imo.
The saddest part is that it's something they wanted to work on from last year and they've actually gotten worse.
it's now clear we should taken beckham and kept our 2015 1st ...

So a guy makes one spectacular catch and that means he's going to have the best career of the draft class?
