Beef Jerky Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Btw, we beat the defending SB champs - Ravens - 2 years ago at home. With EJ. Not unheard of by any means. Many times the SB winner doesn't even make the playoffs the next year. Exactly! Thumbs Up/Like Button
bonechiller Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Yeah but they still have Chandler Jones, Ninkovich, that first rounder Malcolm Brown, and those linebackers Mayo, Hightower and Collins .. and McCourty and Chung at safties all very good .. need to tread lightly, their game plan last week was to allow the run game so that the passing game could be the focus Really, now that makes a lot of sense. " let's LET them run the ball, then we will just focus on their passing game" Let's see how that works out, got lucky last week.
Dont Stop Billeiving Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 I wrote up an All-22 piece on here last night on the Pats week 1 game...check it out if you're interested. Pats got a few great performances from Brady, Gronk, and Edelman, but the rest of the roster looked very mediocre. Provided detailed thoughts on several of their players.

" let's LET them run the ball, then we will just focus on their passing game" Let's see how that works out, got lucky last week. the Pats D gave up 464 yards to Pitt. They didn't stop anything. Pitt missed FGs and made stupid mistakes. They moved the ball on the ground and in the air without their starting RB, starting center, and #2 WR.
Doc Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 the Pats D gave up 464 yards to Pitt. They didn't stop anything. Pitt missed FGs and made stupid mistakes. They moved the ball on the ground and in the air without their starting RB, starting center, and #2 WR. And with headset issues for the first quarter.
ToGoGo Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 F---EM! Hope they brought a good supply of bodybags! We need to make sure the Pats sideline has plenty of stretchers and oxygen masks. And warm Gatorades. What douchebags.
Beef Jerky Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 (edited) H-Bay should have kept his foot inbounds on that one TD throw. Sammy, Woods, Clay, Harvin will know to do that. Edited September 20, 2015 by Beef Jerky
Freddie's Dead Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Cheats should feel disrespected, cheatin' bastids. How can you possibly respect that team? Bad enough they cheat, but they're so damn smug and arrogant about it. F^ck 'em.

D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Anyone here think New England will be playing pissed and siked up because of ESPN, trash talking and everyone picking against them? I know if I was like 23-3 vs a franchise and the defending SB champions I would definitely feel disrespected.. the only real players they lost is Brandon Browner and Darrelle Revis if Im not mistaken they have everyone else in tact.. its just eerie feeling for this game .. Bill is still the coach, Tom is still at the top of his game and Gronk is a monster .. thoughts anyone? Troll much!
The Wiz Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 I get the feeling, no matter what, the Pats will feel disrespected regardless of whether they win or lose. That's what comes with cheating to win.

MDH Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Not a believer in teams being "motivated" to play, particularly this early in a season. They're already as prepared as they're ever going to be, they need no more motivation. What I am concerned with is Rex turning this isn't a huge, emotional game. It's week 2 of the season, the team should be preparing like any other week and win or lose they move on to the following week. He's kind of set it up so if the Bills lose it will be a crushing loss and it shouldn't be that way for an early regular season game.

That's been the mentality of every coach this team has had for a decade. And time after time, the team comes out looking flat, disinterested and gets pushed around. I've seen enough of that lackadaisical football. This is a big game; its a statement type game. They need to to come out on fire and play like it.
TAinLack. Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 ...and after watching the Bills drive down on the first drive and score - they should feel disrespected!!! And there's plenty more where that came from!
MDH Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 I'm sorry, but screw that. That's been the mentality of every coach this team has had for a decade. It's also how almost every successful coach I've eve seen handles it. It's a long season and you can't have peaks and valleys emotionally. They need consistency and you can't put too much importance on each week. But I can see how fans want a guy who mirrors their emotions but it's not the way to successfully manage a team.

I can get behind that, but there has to be a balance. You need confidence and passion, but today it seems we're seeing the other end of the Jauron spectrum. Too much hype and undisciplined game. They all but conceded the game away in the 2nd quarter with the sloppy play and stupide penalties. Of course, assuming they were real penalties, I didn't see any of them and the TV cameras don't seem to have seen them either.
