Pats 34, Colts 27 - 5-0 Week 6 Post-Game Thread

[E1Downey]

Yeah, Colinsworth is the worst. Like that one Gronk catch...he said "Oh, that's really close to a fumble" and it was nowhere close to one.

Or how about on the colts opening drive and theybrun a pick play...."well they give the pats a taste of their own medicine"

****in douche, gimme a break, thats the pats medicine now? Theyre the knly ones running picks? God, he was getting annoying tonight

4th and two "fake punt": 2015 Buttfumble Finalist.

Said this play will go down in history alongside the bumble as soon as it happened.

That 4th down play needs a name. It has overtaken the buttfumble as my favorite bonehead play against the pats. It's definitely gonna be #1 on the shek report.

Nothing beats the butt fumble. It is in its own sphere.

Need to get our OL straight. The Jets front 7 is no joke.

 

[Bella*chick]

Except its impossible to put a name to it. The WTF? play. People might actually know what you're talking about.

I dont think the Pats org was nearly as angry at the colts as we fans were. I think there were intentional reasons for the ultra conservative fourth quarter. Now if it were the ravens....i think theyd have been chucking it a bit.

I didn't care about a blowout or not. I was pissed at the ultra-conservativeness because it hurt their chances of winning.

I wish Patricia would call the D aggressive the all game and not for just 3 qtrs

Pagano says that on the onside kick review they thought they had the ball..

Let's blame it on the refs favoring the Pats.

This is worse than buttfumble. At least Sanchise was trying to get yards or do something (with his eyes closed.) This dumb fake play tonight was not only a mystery, it was executed completely wrong, was a makeable conversion and was a big momentum swinging play. And even if it did work it would have come back.

And there he goes into the locker room. TB not doing the front and center stuff on marquee NFL event.

This is worse than buttfumble. At least Sanchise was trying to get yards or so something (with his eyes closed.) This was not only a mystery, it was executed completely wrong, was a makeable conversion and was a big momentum swinging play.

And was also utterly illegal from the word go.

DE Jabaal Sheard, who didn't play in the second half with an ankle injury, tells me he thinks he is fine. Just got rolled up on. Precaution.

Christopher Price ‏@cpriceNFL 4m4 minutes ago
Julian Edelman asked about the finger: We're not allowed to talk about injuries.

That would be great news if sheard is fine

 

[Deflatemyballs]

Anyone else think Freeny and Mayo both looked horrible out there? Need Hightower back and Bostic to pick up the scheme fast.

 

[jmt57]

In his post-game Q&A, Brady sounds identical to Belichick with his answers.

If you didn't recognize the voice and were not looking at the face, you would think this guy speaking has to be Belichick's successor as New England's head coach.

 

[Angelpats]

Good game. If the colts didn't hold so much we would have even more sacks, plus it hard to sack or pressure when you rush only 3. D shut them down the second half and don't know what anyone says but that was a garbage td at the end. Hate the injuries. Offense was ok, conservative towards the end, but we won, and if we face them in the playoffs it's better they save something then just show our full hand.

 

[Bruins29]

Yeah, it was really Top 10 NFL hall of shame worthy.

I am glad we are done with this game and moving on. Glad to get the win. In the run up to this game, it's been deflategate rehashed non-stop and idiots were proclaiming 73-0 wins. I thought it was silly that an a"angry Tom Brady" was going to be scoring ten TDs.

First, Tom is a cerebral QB who does his best work being focused and alert. His awareness and touch is not improved by him being angry. Emotions, if anything, would hurt QB play.

I think all of the blowout talk hurt the Pats really. The noise surely got to Indy and their players can't be happy with everyone thinking they were going to lose. Probably made their D play better (though not their O).

The score would not have been so close if...

JE11 had not been injured. I am not just talking about the INT, which sucked. But with Gronk triple covered all day, he would have feasted. The injury made that much harder and Amendola had to step up. I think with some time to heal and adjust AND with the return of Jojo imminent, this will not be a problem in the future.

We did not lose Cannon and thus got more QB pressure than expected.

Some of the more atrocious holding by the Colts had been called.

 

[aluminum seats]

The superstitious part of me is glad Brady got that first pick out of the way...
