The Official Patriots vs Texans Divisional playoff game thread

Ugly start. I hope that they clean it up as the game goes on.

Just saw Gronk block with both arms- a good sign

I STILL don't understand why so many coaches on 3rd and short REFUSE to show a run option to the defense.

 

[DOGWARZ]

Feel it's gonna be one of those sloppy games again.

RB Danny Woodhead, who started, came off the field after 1st play (left hand). Headed to locker room.


Hate this start already.Not a good omen.

Geez I hate these shaky starts. It is not like we usually start shaky and end strong. We usually start like a house-a-fire and end up holding on. Starting shaky does not work out for us that often.

 

[Observer]

Is it just me or does it seem like they always come out looking very tentative on offense in playoff games?

 

[SeanBruschi54]

****ty three and out to begin the game

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

We'd be in a world of trouble now if not for Mesko/McCourty. Definitely not looking sharp but if we come out of this down just 3 or 6 it won't be so bad.

That 3rd down pass play was as low percentage as it can get.

FFS. . . . :bricks:

 

[Thunderkyss]

bad playcall on 3rd and 2. Please dont try too much. Give ridley a chance.

Uh.... Belichick doesn't do bad play-calls. Next time you coach a super bowl winning team maybe you can criticize his play calling, until then, put the ball in the GOATs hands.

Great just great.

Going back to the opening KO, our special teams coach needs to be fired. Arguably, the coverage unit has already lost us a couple of games. I don't care where they rate statistically, they ome up woefully short in huge moments.

 

[PatsFaninAZ]

I hate this game so far. A turnover please?

 

[heavyde050]

Good tackling by the defense so far.

 

[Foxypats]

omg....10 yards a play???? come on d , make a damn play

 

[PP2]

DL in contain, backfield on top.. looks like we are going to make Schaub try to beat us with the intermediate pass. We'll see a lot of incremental gains up the field by them.

 

[SVN]

no pressure. easy completions...

 

[randomk1]

Can we start playing now?

 

[juny]

horrible horrible start so far
