Drop the balanced offense BS, start the game shotgun, and destroy these teams, going up 21-0 before they know it.

No more reaching the redzone and giving the opposing D a free 3rd and 8, throw the damn ball.

It's a disgrace this team is 1-2.

Our pass defense flat-out sucks (again)... can we just admit it please?

I'm sure this will just get locked... but god... McCourty has regressed so bad it isn't even funny. What a POS. Arrington is awful too.

At least we can accept that our defense is the same old terrible defense we've come to expect over the last few years... particularly in the pass game. Our corners are TERRIBLE.

I would pay the 15/mil a year Revis gets, he's worth it. I really wish we could just find a decent CB, honestly. Ty Law is a total a-hole lol, but he could PLAY, and I want that back.

oline played great until it mattered most
mccourty had great plays..but could have cost us the game.
Arrington took a step back. Stayed upright and catch that INT we win

you are basing this opinion after one of the worst officated games in history? until the real refs come back, everything needs to be taken with a huge grain of salt.

i can't count the number of times the announcers sighed in disgust after another crappy flag (usually in the passing game)

Refs aside, The Patriots has become Artists of losing in the most soulcrushing and agonizing ways.

hard to imagine a scenario more painful than both Superbowl losses, the loss to the cards and now the loss to the ravens.

I know its just two losses, but these games are becoming excruciating to watch what with the ABYSMAL officiating and the Patriots snatching defeat from the claws of victory.

Id perfer the Patriots being beaten soundly and fairly at the hands of the ravens than to endure the blasphemous ****show that has become an NFL game.

I'm afraid that until the DB's start 1. turning around and looking for the ball and 2. catching interceptions that are thrown to them, the defense will be lit up by good quarterbacks.

 

[juny]

what is there to say other than this game was a joke thnaks to the refs.

kudos to the ravens for pulling one out of their arse.

 

[ensoul]

Bad call on both sides of the ball. Pats could have ended the game with a first down. Horrible play calling at the end. They passed the ball twice and missed both times stopping the clock. They should have ran and forced the ravens to use their time outs.

Anyay this is how the pats gave been losing for years. They are not able to convert on the offensive to put the game away, they punt with a small lead and it is game over because the defense cannot hold. Why should this game be any different.

Anyway this team has a bunch of question marks. Offense could not end the game on a first down, Defense, as usual did could not make a stop when this needed.

They play the bills and will likely win. Even if they do what does the really mean beside the can beat up lesser teams and lose to the good ones.

the shut down the best WR last week to night..let's wait 3 or 4 more weeks before we say our pass D sucks

 

[Haley]

refs vs refs ... and refs won!

What else is there to discuss?

 

[condon84]

Can't blame the refs. Both sides got bad calls.

We had a chance to ice this game twice when the offense got the ball with a lead in the 4th quarter. Both times they ***** the bed and were not aggressive as they have been all game.

Then it was just inevitable after the Ravens got the ball. Our D is not reliable against the pass. Even if there's pressure, our CBs just can't cover to save their lives. Two INT drops by McCourty tonight. Arrington had a fair catch that he should have caught. Our CBs are just not good.

 

[n1e]

Devin McCourty absolutely sucks, his rookie year was a fluke

the entire secondary sucks, chung included

Playcalling sucks, brb lets hand the ball off to woodhead on a draw for 1 yard a carry 20x a fcking game

 

[Hael]

People will complain about a number of things like the blown calls, and a few sloppy plays, as well as the defense.

But overall I felt we were going up against a very good team, and their overall strategy played dividends. In short, I feld that their run game totally gassed our D, which is a credit to their great run protection and Rice who is a beast.

At the end of the day, we didn't get enough of a pass rush and desperately missed the quick edge rush of a Carter and Anderson.

Flacco had way too much time, and ultimately our secondary just ran out of steam.

Game could have gone either way. We played a pretty good one.

I will say it again.... Ninkovich gets ZERO pressure at LE.

 

[PATSNUTme]

The game reminded me the old Colts games, only without the BS calls.

Why isn't a FG reviewable?

 

[Bobs My Uncle]

I'm peeved @ the refs like everyone else but, honestly, I'm becoming sick and tired of BB not being able to field even a decent defense after all this time, and effort, rebuilding. Worse, I'm starting to question Brady at crunch time in big games.

 

[RI Patriots fan]

McCourty and Arrington were awful. Three sure interceptions missed between them.

McCourty missed tackles for TDs......got burnt for TDs........blew the game with a big penalty at the end.

Just awful.

me after the brady 3 and out .

Re: Our pass defense flat-out sucks (again)... can we just admit it please?

Again, I don't know how people think McCourty regressed. He was solid for most of the night. He still needs to be more consistent, but he did more good than bad. Unfortunately, his last bad play was the worst possible bad play at the time.

As for the defense, the defense was solid at times and horrible at others. This is typical of a young defense. It is still week three with two rookie starters and several other starters who are either new to the team or only two or three years of experience. Give it time.
