ESPN with another Insider article on how to beat the Patriots

Ice_Ice_Brady · Jan 14, 2016

I beg you not to click on the link and regret giving into temptation and visiting that tabloid site. Every week the Pats have a big game, especially in the playoffs, the gleefully idiotic ESPN crew gets all their little minds together and sometimes even recruits semi-intelligent people to come up with a superficial, pathetic little gameplan which they pray will work against the galactic evil empire in New England. It's really amazing how the company just outright roots against the Patriots and even tries to collaborate with ways to beat them. What's really funny, though, is if you hear how teams really construct gameplans, these cute little writeups are the equivalent playing chess with pawns only. I fully acknowledge that my "strategy" is just an amateur attempt to understand 22 moving parts at once by lumping things together like "the passing game" or the "the running game" whereas coordinators look at gaps, blocking schemes, split-second precision, and other nuances found with a huge scouting/film breakdown department.

I believe over 50% of all male ESPN employees have been charged with sexual crimes a reliable source told me.

I read that somewhere, perhaps this very post

VrabelJr · Jan 14, 2016

All it takes is a 99 yard pick six, a blocked punt for a TD, and a punt return for a TD. Duh!

RayClay · Jan 14, 2016

I believe they write one of those for each team, they did in the free blog anyway. Maybe the Patriots hate is what you pay extra for.

1960Pats · Jan 14, 2016

I haven't read or listened to ESPN or the NFLN much at all. The only time I do watch is when I have to because the Pats or some game I might care about is on. And that will be over when Brady retires.

Oh it's funny ... They say with Maclin out the Patriots will expect the Chiefs to be hyperconservative ... so the Chiefs should throw deep more than usual ...

If they stress throws over 15 yards that will open up the short stuff ... OMG ... LMAO.

Also send Kelce long because the Patriots are expecting him to go short ... this is bar room junk.
Once we double Kelce then the Chiefs can throw a ton to Conley .... ROTFL ... buy the bar another round.

I guess ESPN writer Andrew Healy fancies himself an OC ... you da' man Andrew ... spark another.

I hope Matt Patricia gets to read this ... or we are in DEEP TROUBLE ... no pun intended.

I see a fatal flaw to that plan. Alex Smith, efficient though he is, can throw the ball about as far as I can. And I can't throw the ball very far.

I left that part out ... didn't want to get Ian in trouble paraphrasing too much.

He says Smith does not throw downfield too often ... but when he does he's much better than his reputation.

Maybe Smith has some deer antler spray this week?

If you don't want people clicking the link, why post it? Are you smoking what Chandler's smoking.

FCB02062 · Jan 14, 2016

Funny how many "blueprint" articles there are related to the Pats. Were there any "blueprint" articles on Carolina when they were chasing 16-0? How 'bout on Seattle 2 years ago? Perhaps on Green Bay last year when Rogers was hotter than a firecracker? Remember 2007? Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Indianapolis all supposedly had the blueprint...Blueprint talk was a huge part of espn programming, and it still is...
Wonder if there was any "blueprint" talk when Dallas won 3/4 Super Bowls or when Denver went back to back??????

patriot1136 · Jan 14, 2016

The only way to beat us is to play us towards the end of the season when it doesn't matter and the entire team is injured. The Chiefs don't understand the hell that is going to be unleashed on them.

BadMoFo · Jan 14, 2016

It'll help if they return the opening kickoff for a TD and get five turnovers.

Jangles · Jan 14, 2016

The lengths some of you go to to find reasons to be butthurt are amazing.

They publish these about every team, and it's a talking point because most teams are an underdog to the Pats.

RelocatedPatFan · Jan 14, 2016

Funny thing about ESPN with all their experts and some of the ex-coaches they have makes them believe they know alot about football. and I agree they do. The big difference is, as a Patriot fan, that we have a guy in the drivers seat who knows more than any of them.

No other team can lay claim to that (though a couple may get close).

Consume article at your own peril, I say.

/oops must have temporarily lost my inferiority complex
