The OFFICIAL Patriots vs. Dolphins POST-Game Thread

[Deus Irae]

There are several things that are impressive with this pic:
- Yvonne DeCarlo's Lily Munster in pure eye candy state
- The model's body that has been photo-shopped into the pic/onto Lilly Munster's face.
- The photo-shop editor's ability to blend two graphics together to make it look very real/natural.

Though likely fake it's still Lily Munster in a very impressive eye candy state. Nothing wrong with that.....

Good points. I hadn't remembered her with that more modern, sculpted, physique, which is why it threw me.

 

[AzPatsFan]

He threw multiple tantrums during the game. You'll see it all over ESPN tonight, I'm sure.

Dez is an illiterate moron and a total DIVA. I'm glad that BB didn't draft him but their was No chance of that happening, anymore than BB drafting Corderelle Patterson hwo the Vikings traded to get.

*ROFLMAO* Your biggest problem is your clear lack of self-confidence. I am fairly certain that you have accused every single person who has ever disagreed with you on this forum of making "personal attacks" against you or that they have "insulted" you. You clearly don't understand that there is a difference between saying your opinion is asinine and that YOU are asinine.

I suggest that you close up shop and stop posting if you don't want people to reply to your comments...

*ROFLMAO* Gotta love how you make such asinine assumptions about a situation you are absolutely clueless about. Sounds exactly like something NEM would do..

No one is bullying you. The fact you have such a victim mentality is laughable..

I am not insecure at all I just think people should treat each other with a certain level of respect even if they disagree with one another, it is not being sensitive for me it is about being accountable for your actions, this is your opening post to me on the Amendola subject back on 10/14:

No, it isn't an utter failure. You are the utter failure. You seem to have missed where they changed the rules prior to the start of this year that makes it illegal for a defender to lead with the crown of his helmet OR to hit a player in the head, be it with a helmet or not.

To say “you are the utter failure” that is personal DaBruinz, that type of comment is what I take issue with, if you want to disagree with an opinion or position that is fine, you can say things like “your opinion on this is stupid” but when you say the word YOU and then follow that up with the word failure it is a personal attack.

The fact is every single person in this forum should be corresponding with each other with some level of respect, when is the last time you walked up to a perfect stranger and looked them in the face and said “you are the utter failure”? Why would you treat an interaction with a person on the internet any different? There is nothing serious enough in this forum that ever merits insulting someone.

The statement that I accuse everyone of personal attacks is completely untrue, I have exchanged posts with most members without issue, there are about 5-7 posters who’s posting reflect an inability to disagree with others without becoming offensive, I take issue with those posts and not because I am insecure I take issue with them because that is wrong and should not be taking place to me or any other posters in here people should be able to express their opinions without being degraded, posters who respond should ask the question if I was in person or on facebook using my real profile how would I react to this persons opinion and that reaction should be the way they respond in here too. I do not think that is a huge ask, it simply my requesting that you show some level of basic human courtesy.

And

I also wanted to post the "Fighting on the internet is like running in the Special Olympics" image but I figure that will lead to a ban... :bricks:

Anyhoo, just let it go or take it to PMs, no need to clog the game thread with this. I'd rather talk about how we totally devastated the Fish and their fans.

Good stuff, I just put together an ignore list and moving forward I'm going to just take that approach, no point in trying to change posters.

 

[Patriot Missile]

It was a great win and a historical 2nd half for this team.

My blood was boiling in the first half. Ridley finally comes in in the 1st half, runs two carries 6 and 5 yards and then BAMM! Her comes Bolden and Blount. I like the prior two players but it really was a kick to the gut for a fan watching his team losing to a team 17-3. It was pretty clear who gave us the better chance to mount a comeback. What was his final carry tally? 14?
Give us 20-25 and the passing game should approve as well as flow of the offense.

Jeezus, let it go bro. You just have to have the last word on every thread don't you (oh, and the first word)? You've said your piece. Now let the thread get back on topic.

 

[condon84]

I missed the first quarter but here are my thoughts on the rest of the game that I saw.

- Ridley looked good. He's the best RB that we have. I don't know why he doesn't get more carries or be a featured back especially since our passing offense is struggling.

- Blount is a great finishing back when the defense is tired. Especially if our OL can get a push and he can get a head of steam.

- Brady's hand has to be bothering him. I don't care what he says. He's passes at the moment are almost always behind receivers.

- Sucks to lose SeaBass, but Cannon has the physical talent to fill that gap more than adequately. Scar needs to get in his @$$ to make sure he's ready mentally.

- We need DLs. Before the season started, a lot of questions were asked whether it was a good idea to have the lack of depth we had at DL. Nightmare scenario is playing out. We need some beef up front. Hindsight is 20/20, but Belichick screwed this one up.

- Great adjustment by Patricia. Bringing the house relentlessly was great to see. Even when the Phins made their adjustment to the blitz Patricia made another adjustment and brought it from somewhere else. Best f@kk!ng game I've seen him called.

- Logan Ryan looks good. Even if you take away the sacks, his coverage was a lot better than Arrington or Marquice.

- We're 6-2 and it's not looking pretty, but these are the type of games we'll be playing if we do make it into the playoffs.

 

[Kontradiction]

I think my biggest takeaway about the Dolphins from this game (outside of their second-half collapse) is that I really question if Tannehill is going to make it as an NFL QB. He's got so much talent, but I think the Patriots exploited a pretty major mental flaw with his inability to diagnose DB blitzes. He's going to have to greatly improve in that regard or teams are just going to do that to him multiple times every game.

He also has a lot of trouble going through his progressions. I guess McDaniels is calling the plays for the Dolphins too. :bricks:

 

[Kontradiction]

Christ. In reading the rest of the thread, I'm finding out now that NEM had a son.

 

[50-yard-line]

Anyone know if this game will be re-broadcast this week? I started watching it, hit record, added the extension...and for some reason, Direct TV decided to record the pregame show instead! I swear, I was watching the game when I hit record!

My son missed it and I missed a good part of it. Will it be on this week? I can't seem to find it.

Thanks in advance.

use NFL gamecast, you have to trick it into thinking you are outside the US though. I use VPN

 

[I am party]

Watching Tannehill's postgame presscon, and man those Miami reporters ask some braindead, grade school questions, blatant baiting questions, questions where they vent their own frustrations onto Tannehill by asking him about things that have nothing to do with him. What an immature bunch of blowhards.

They're worse than New England reporters, as a whole. These were the people that, in 2010 after eight games, openly suggested that Spoelstra fired and ownership to break the Heat up.

 

[Harrisoned!]

It's just tunnel vision at its best, Deus. Harrisoned is insatiable. He likely became a fan in 2007. He wasn't around to see the championship teams, I presume. They won ugly quite often. Brady wasn't putting up gaudy numbers and the team wasn't scoring 30 ppg. I'm not suggesting the team doesn't have issues, but what team doesn't. The Broncos looked unstoppable for the first few weeks and came crashing back down fast, even though they managed to win today. Some posters, I've resigned, just don't know anything about the nuances of football.

I've been going to games since '93. Vincent Brisby and Chris Slade were my boys back when I was younger. I remember luminaries like Big Play Willie Clay and Derrick Cullors (with a U!).

I watched 2001; this year has a very similar feel to 2001 for sure. Mediocre but timely play on offense, good defense that has a knack for making big plays in big spots. Great special teams on both teams as well.

That said, I think we can all agree that the 2001 Patriots likely only win a Super Bowl about 10% of the time if you ran 1,000 iterations of that season over. A lot of things went their way.

I feel good because we are 6-2 and the only way you win a Super Bowl is by making the playoffs, and we're well on our way to doing that. Heck of a lot better than the Pete Carroll days when we had great talent but crumpled when it mattered, or the early 90s when we just plain sucked. I just don't think they're good enough yet to beat elite teams; then again, they did beat the Saints so maybe I am not giving this defense enough credit where it is due.

Our open-ended stadium's poor acoustics seemed to hold in the boos pretty well. :spygate:

Our open ended stadium holds the boos just as well as Seattle's open ended stadium holds in the cheers and general crowd noise.

 

[Uncle Rico]

Mentioned this in another thread, but since it seems more relevant here (and the text is still on my clipboard), here's Pereira on the Solder holding call that negated Gronk's TD:

Mike Pereira ‏@MikePereira 22h
I don't like the holding call in NE either quite frankly.

Why did I not like the holding? The tackle was in good position. Defender left his feet and to me that's what caused him to go to ground.

The holding penalty I was talking about is the one that called back the touchdown.

Bedard also saw it as a wrong call.
