Doc Brown Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 23 minutes ago, GunnerBill said: My thoughts having just watched: Giants: - Daniel Jones has had his struggles the last two games but there are still moments of encouragement. The question I had coming out though still exists.... how much of a playmaker can he be when he is behind the sticks? 2nd and long and 3rd and long when you have to make some of those big boy NFL throws into tight windows. That is what I am still not seeing. - Where are the running backs are a dime a dozen crowd? Those two fellas running the rock for the Giants last night had as much explosion as a defunct cabbage patch. - Pat Shrumur's use of challenges - LOL Patriots: - The defense and special teams are responsible for them winning right now. The defense is sustainable because it is for real. The special teams are not going to score a touchdown every week though. - The offense has problems and it starts up front. They have lost too many pieces on that line and it shows. First half we saw the same as we saw in the Bills game - Brady letting the ball go even quicker than normal out of rhythm, throwing the timing off with his receivers because he was worried about being hit. The two occasions he held it he had a strip fumble and a viscous sack. The Giants were not able to keep that up for the whole game because they don't have the Dline depth the Bills have to rotate through and so Brady got a little more comfortable in the 2nd half but there is no doubt in my mind that this offense is struggling, Brady is struggling, the only reliable guys he has are Edelman and White and the line is a mess. - I know New England are 6-0 but they do not look like a 6-0 team. They, like the Bills, are benefitting from an easy AFCE schedule this year but this is not a team that is going to finish 16-0 or even 14-2. There are multiple defeats to come. The road to the Superbowl in the AFC will once again run through Arrowhead. I agree with most of this but the Patriots usually get stronger as the season progresses. They'll address the o-line and WR position one way or another. They'll get some starters back and pry trade for some upgrades. 1
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 (edited) Tom Brady, Patriots bailed out by D on way to 6-0 start A blocked punt returned for a touchdown and a fumble recovery brought back for a score helped the Pats beat... I didn't watch much. I kept checking only to the score rise and rise for the bad guys. Tom Brady was 31/41 for 334 yds, ZERO TD's, 1 INT, QBR 42.7, RTG 88.9 and 2 Fumbles losing 1 Is the end neigh?

It was a very close game despite the blocked punt and all Jone's INTs until the Giants D wore down from overuse and the refs seemed to take their usual stand for NE. I swear those guys all must have bets on the Patsies. 1

GG Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 If only there was another NFL team that was willing to pay Jamie Collins an additional $250K this offseason, Pats* would be 3-3 He's been the difference maker.

Pretty sure we celebrated Josh's rushing tds. If Josh had those #'s and people complain, defenders would quickly point out the rushing tds. I would be happy with those #s, as long as the rushing tds were included. "Just win , baby". Edited October 11, 2019 by Dopey

Nah, Belichick will shut down QB’s like Prescott, Wentz, and Jackson. We also play those three QB’s this season, and I’m not afraid of any of them. Dallas scares me the most being a Thanksgiving Day game. All of those games are very winnable for a team with an elite defense. I’m not saying the Pats will win all those games, but the Texans, Ravens, Eagles, and Cowboys are all very winnable games. The Chiefs game will be the most interesting imo Edited October 11, 2019 by SirAndrew

Even with the 2 rushing TD's his Ratings are bad Tom Brady QBR 42.7 and a RTG of 88.9 That's like Josh's bad numbers and its been at least twice Tom has been that bad this season. For the season ..... QBR of 57.3 ans a RAT of 97.5 Mahomie has ratings of 82.9 and 114.7 Edited October 11, 2019 by SlimShady'sGhost

This is the truth. They got to Brady* a lot last night and like the Bills, the QB was the reason for the loss. Better QB play by just a little and Giants would definitely have been in it at the end.

Also teams with strong d lines and can put up points.
May Day 10 Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 Brady is missing bad with medium passes, and even short passes to the sideline. That is a first and seems to be systemic. He did complete a lot, but many seemed to be within a couple yards of the line of scrimmage. The Giants were blitzing and they were throwing a lot of little screens. What was the average in-the-air distance of the completed passes?
