Royale with Cheese

They’re going to have to replicate Tampa’s Super Bowl defense because they’re not going to score.

How about "Will our WR's be able to catch in the cold weather?"

Yep. Taylor gashed us all game. Henry had 2 big runs...that impacted us a lot but most of the game, Henry was held in check.

I have concerns about our run defense but we are not anywhere near the worst. Watch other games. Most of the year, we were pretty decent against the run with a few games where we got gashed. The games where we gave up a lot were against 3 very good running teams too that did this to a lot of teams.

LOL, now you're rewording it "given the conditions". The result was we didn't score, except on the muffed punt and that was in the 1st. Josh averaged 4.1 yards per pass. We were 4-13 on 3rd downs. We had 230 yards total offense. NE only threw it 3 times and had more total yards than us. Our inability to run made us have to throw in a game where we didn't want to throw because of the conditions. But if you're not going anywhere on the ground, you have to make a change. If we could have run the ball like we did against the Falcons, we would have continued. We scored 10 points. Yes, outstanding lol. You mean they tried to run the ball when conditions made it very difficult to throw? Scottlaw will find anything, and I mean anything to criticize McDermott. "He tried to run the ball with 50 mph winds...what an idiot!"

Oh god, woe is me. "weather ruined my enjoyment so I'm going to create more threads about it. I don't want to put it in the existing thread because posts can get buried after a little while so I'll create a new one so everyone can see."

How many weather threads are you going to create? Especially on the main page, there's already one dedicated to weather.

He was throwing the ball outstanding? He was 15 of 30 for 145. Our only TD was in the first quarter after a muffed punt . We went to the pass because we couldn't run at all. Outstanding lol.

It's okay Josh, it happens to every guy....especially with too much whiskey.

We were 1-4 in the redzone. He couldn’t throw just fine it it. It was an anomaly. You don’t remember Allen’s 5 yard out that was pushed sideways? Or the deep ball to Diggs where he couldn’t judge it because it was moving like crazy? If we were built like the Jets with that scary WR core, we would be okay. Davis and Mims just can’t be stopped.

Why didn’t they have him retire like Gettleman?

I think we should do it every quarter we are up.

Yeah it has sucked. I’m not as worried about this one. Windy and/or precipitation makes it difficult for me to watch.

Anyone going shirtless?

Put a layer of Hot Hands inside the boots.

What in the world happened to him? He was a leading MVP candidate in 2017 before getting hurt and has just fallen off a cliff since.

I played WR and our QB was an All American and signed with Tennessee when they were a powerhouse. His scouting report was "accurate but average arm strength". I remember the ball hurting my hands even in the summer. I can't imagine catching a ball from Allen at zero degrees. I wouldn't be shocked if it took a finger off. I'm sure Beasley would figure how to play with 9 fingers.

I would throw deep a lot. Play action and take shots. The mid range balls might be difficult to complete....I would imagine zip would be a little down. Which means Mac Jones probably doesn't throw more than 18-20 times.

sissy

I think he would pick it up in a day.

Normally you would be right...you still might be right but he is familiar with this defense. Obada might not be ready to go.

High percentage is subjective. So in this case, I put between 5%-60% of snaps. I don't so I can't be wrong because I'm a cheater.

He’s good at stopping the run and NE will run. I bet he plays a high percentage of snaps…well if he dresses.

This guy.

I had a blanket in the Atlanta game....nothing said to me.
