The Official Patriots vs Rams POST game thread

[PATSNUTme]

Please post your comments, knee jerk reactions, and insightful observations regarding today's nice win in London against the St.Louis Rams.

Not a lot of things to be critical about but I'm sure the usual suspects will find some. Yup, just moved one to the Practice Squad.

They announced the attendance to be 84,004 just 3 shy of 84,007 in London.

On a personal note it's time to give they little guy a break so he can hydrate for the rest of the season and post season.

Pats are 5-3 and firmly in control of the AFC East going into the bye! Perfect position to be in, and let some guys heal up some more! Gronk looking like his usual Beastly self! I think he's finally healthy!

What do they put in the food in the UK? Cos our defense can use more of that cooking! Really a lockdown, dominant performance excepting the first drive by the Rams.

Awesome victory for the Pats! They really put up an exhibition of American football to be proud of! The Rams... not so much. LOL almost feel bad for them. They really got embarrassed on the World stage.

I believe the offense didn't score on 1 or 2 drives wtf?????

 

[robbomango]

great game, pats win, jets lose at home. It's the perfect day.

There was one play that people can legitimately complain about without nitpicking. Should shut up a bunch of people on here for a while.

Oh wait, they'll all just complain about Ron Brace getting hurt...

[Keyser Söze]

only thing that bugged me is still seeing Woodhead on the field in the red zone...especially when we hand it off to him.

I could watch the Gronk Buckingham Palace TD dance all day long - best TD dance by far.

Good win, something to build on for sure.

 

[Betterthanmost]

I am glad we signed up Gronk early, I doubt we could have afforded the after this season. His numbers are off the chart.

I just saw video of the Gronk spike after his 2nd TD....


What was that?


He doesn't usually move his hips like that while still wearing a shirt.

Very happy today!

I'd also like to thank the mods - Im assuming they did something to ban the usual suspects from the game-day thread, which was much more sane today than usual. Winning helps, but not having the same bozos in the thread makes a big diference!

Just saw it again; awesome that he had the presence of mind to do that. ANd kudos to Simms for recognizing what it was (I didn't!). Was there a penalty on that? Watching the replay, he actually came back toward a Rams player on his return "march" and spiked it right in front of him. I seem to remember he was flagged fr that against the Jets once — although in both cases it's clear Gronk wasn't being an "unsportsmanlike" jerk.

LOL at Gronk's TD celebrations today. I love that guy.

That's how you work a crowd in a foreign country..:rocker:

Proud of the team and proud of the Pats fans, particularly UK Patriots, for representing us admirably at Wembley!

No there was no flag for that. It would have been a shame if there was. That dude could have moved anyway. He chose to stand there and watch just like everyone else. LOL.

Hey, at least Jeff Fisher's team managed to get some points on the board this time. :singing:

 

[buile]

Feast or Famine. As long as folks don't expect NE to do this every week.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

About as perfect a game as you can play.

Did Welker come back into the game after the injury? Any other key injuries of note? I admittedly did some DirectTV exploration over the 2nd half
