Haha I got an eye roll so maybe I can further explain 😂 we’ve got a big physical qb with a cannon arm that can run the ball and I wouldn’t say he’s been excellent at airing the ball out and letting his receivers run under it anyway so you’re nearly always going to be hurting the other team more than yourself with an outdoor stadium in bad weather…not to mention you get to practice in that weather if you choose to do that leading up to the game and a ton of teams are used to playing half their games indoors

100 yard Field goals on first down every drive with the wind 🤣

If we could put a roof on the stadium right now to finish out this season id do it…but going forward long term we can plan around playing in the elements. A dome benefits the opposing team too I’m sure some teams wish they could take their roof off against us this season but they can’t 😂

Everyone has a better oline than what we’ve had to start this season haha doesn’t mean the pats will have success against our front 7 in a relatively unbalanced game playcalling wise though

Haha I’m gonna somewhat echo what he’s saying but I think they’re in a similar camp with the pats where they’re not really built to compete with the elite teams so Super Bowl run is definitely a stretch. I think we’re underrating our two wins against Miami a bit and they could give the pats trouble in the rematch We have also had much later picks than we’re used to because our team is actually good now haha a lot of the big time sure nfl starters are in the first half of the first round usually Davis is definitely losing targets to Knox and sanders this year…I think he is someone we like overall though. If we were still rolling with John brown and the Knox with the stone hands I think we’d be seeing a lot more of Davis

Any news on brown? One weak link on the oline you can gameplan around…two gets difficult to manage

He got absolutely victimized and was practically living in the wrong gaps. Colts were definitely picking on him with their play design. When they run 40 times your middle linebacker is eventually gonna luck into some tackles lol

The secret headset used to communicate with the qb after the nfl frequency gets cut off at 25 on the play clock is probably hiding in Steve belichicks mullet…I can’t think of any other reason bill would allow his son to embarrass him like that haha

We need a year where the cap isn’t significantly reduced and we can invest in a more balanced offensive line…no dome should benefit us in the long run with a strong armed qb. We really were forced to choose dline or oline to work on this offseason and the offensive line wasn’t THIS bad last year lol

Yep we got hosed by that in the afc championship as well…if that game is called like the superbowl was maybe we win a shootout…I don’t think there’s some grand conspiracy against us…I think there’s just an ebb and flow of nfl refs being instructed to let players play leading to a disastrous no call then nfl refs are instructed to keep a closer eye on something leading to a disastrous penalty call and it just keeps flipping back and forth 😂

Yea that reminded me of lebron James getting all the calls…or no calls in this case lol it’s good business for the nfl to let the offensive line play in titans games cuz you get a bunch of highlight reel runs haha

Not to mention Henry’s 70 yard run against us had about 4 uncalled holding penalties lol. They were hurting us with play action late in that game…I thought we did a decent job against Henry. It was pretty eye opening to see the titans moving the ball with absolute nobodies at all their skill positions against the pats…granted we can’t read too much into previous games and they won that game anyway.

Belichick knows they likely can’t…doesn’t matter what these fools that get paid to hype up the nfl think 😂 I’m curious what they’re gonna throw at us

I’ve been saying that all week…win or lose I don’t think they got this one right as far as analysis goes. If we’re gonna lose it’s gonna be on a costly turnover on our side of the field that the pats turn into 7 points with a short field. That’s what their defense has been feasting on

I don’t think it does…mac can’t pass at all in this…their receivers are not as good as ours either and they will likely have a harder time catching in this weather. I don’t think pats are at the level of Indy or Tennessee where they can just line up and run the ball 40 times and be successful

Lol it honestly makes everyone saying that look kind of silly in my opinion…they have played one extra game and are not in good division tiebreaker shape. If we were 7-5 I’d be ok with it

Yea I was just gonna ask if it’s cross wind. If not I’d pick a side…going with the wind early might be the way to go…if we get a couple quick scores it’ll put a lot of pressure on mac

I think the media hype machine has some people spooked lol I’ve never seen such a mismatch with how they are hyping up a team and the actual positional matchups on the field. It’s borderline illogical. Pats could certainly win the game but they are all kinds of overrated even while playing well...it’s no fault of their own they are just being talked about like they’re the 07 pats for some reason haha They’re getting the benefit of the doubt because of their history but they don’t have a statement win all season our team has won some huge games the last few years so if anyone gets the benefit of the doubt it should be us. The script has really flipped since Brady left and it’s weird to be in this position…we have definitely got hyped up as a possible team to dethrone NE numerous times throughout the years only to be torched by Brady when the game is actually played lol if NE wins tonight I’m all for talking about them as a potential super bowl team but let’s play the game first…the fact that they blew out teams like the falcons doesn’t mean diddly when they get to the playoffs

And those two games were against generational talent type rbs and with key pieces missing. I think we can pretty objectively say the pats offense is no Tennessee/Indy.

I think the pats secondary is very exploitable if we get even slightly below average pass blocking…problem is in our losses the pass blocking has been awful lol Yea even indirectly…rodgers being out when kc played gb definitely hurt us a bunch. They look like they’re in the drivers seat for the 1 seed now when they could’ve been still battling it out for the afc west division if they lost that game

Yea they seem to be running into teams at the right time lol this could’ve been way worse though. We have gotten lucky with injuries at times and unlucky a few times too. We’ve gotta be one of the only teams that saw a healthy Steelers defense and also one of the only teams that had to go against Henry/Julio jones/aj brown. But we got the practice squad saints offense and a few backup qbs along the way Edmunds was out vs colts and Klein started at mlb…he was absolutely dreadful and the main contributing factor why our defense looked so bad Yea not to get into vaccine opinions specifically but looking at the rules of how long you have to wait to come back from Covid vaccinated vs unvaccinated it’s pretty much a no brainer that an nfl player being vaccinated is a huge help to the team.

Are you frequently in the game day threads? Haha the pessimists always predict we’re going to blow the game the first time we punt/kick a fg no matter who the opponent is 😂 I’m sure there were ‘same old bills’ comments after Josh’s pick against the Texans lol

Good thing they don’t play football levitating 100 feet in the air haha not sure it will be as bad as the flags look at field level…I think short/medium high velocity throws won’t by altered too much. I love the idea of someone like mac jones trying to throw an out route in wind like that against us…I don’t think he has the arm strength for those types of throws tonight

If you flipped it and they had an elite secondary and a good front seven I’d be more worried about the match up…I don’t think they’re as good as that healthy Steelers defense we saw week one and we will probably see a similar game plan of short/intermediate passes and not many runs and we will complain we didn’t run the ball enough if we lose 😂

This feels like a semantics / optimist vs pessimist thing haha. You could also look at it as we’ve got a strong arm qb so we will be able to pass the ball still and they may struggle airing it out and be confined to running the ball. It certainly won’t be josh Allen in ideal conditions but he could still make big plays with his arm. This isn’t the first windy game he’s played in…he made a couple huge plays in that ravens playoff game
