The official Patriots vs Steelers game thread

[NEPatriot]

We're lucky to be down by 10. Need a TD here.

who cares if they get a fg...offense cant do anything

 

[juny]

this team will make the playoffs, but the defense has to improve lots to do anything in the playoffs

 

[Jangles]

Why are the Steelers bothering with field goals?

It's not like this defense could have two stops in a row

 

[Deus Irae]

Forced the 3... Now they need the offense to step it up.

 

[Sfpat]

Is this the worst NFL defense ever assembled?

I mean statistically it is I think, but that may not mean as much since the rules favor the offense so much.

Yes, I believe this may just be the worst defense statistically ever.

Sorry, you can only "stand pat" for so long without going out to get quality players or spend money, and that is the problem. This team has been consistently the same bad defense and a good offense. However, once the o-line goes against an aggressive D-line then the game is a struggle for Brady too.The receivers struggle to get consistent separation. There is no fear in the opposing team to drop players deep because there is no deep threat to burn a corner one-on-one. Schemes only work so far if you have the players to execute it.

Why does it feel like keeping the Steelers O to 3 points is a massive achievement for this D?

Here comes the patented Brady three and out

 

[juny]

is this drive a must score?

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Being down 2 scores against a Steeler defense is recipe for disaster. This is where they thrive, Brady is going to be running for his life soon.

Let's just hope we come out with no injuries

 

[PatsFan24]

It would be nice to see one pass go incomplete without players screaming for a flag.

One drive at a time. We've got to start some where.

 

[Triumph]

Forced the 3... Now they need the offense to step it up.

If the Pats dont score on this drive its over

 

[R_T26]

Teams lose games, teams play bad. Please go cheer for another team.

Typical response on this site. Let BB keep drafting and calling the d, see what changes

So is Butler

Freagin' meriweather has been awful as well.

 

[RxJock1120]

Here is where Tom Brady can show everyone who the best QB in the league is. Playing like crap so far, but the game is not over.

Let's go Pats!!!

 

[FCB02062]

All those who think the pats will score a td here say "aye!" > crickets<

 

[DOGWARZ]

Truthfully even if we made the superbowl Greenbay would destroy this defense and their defense would do just enough ton win it.
