I understand that, and even then, I don't think it's all on the players. the scheme, the playcalling, opponents are getting open just as much because they are being put in position to fail....who the hell cooked up the idea to do the zone back there with guys like wallace? it's the one thing that allows the offense to succeed without earning it. I think they need to be put into position to force the offense to put some effort or accuracy into their plays...I can accept the TD play made against hightower......it was an outstanding throw and a good catch....hightower does not deserve to be criticized for that one......thigpen is a nobody who made a play, like develin did last week and hooman did this week
all I am hoping for now is that if the pats go down, they go down swinging...all I dread is to have a playoff game similar to the last 2 of 3 against the ravens......basically tail down the entire 2nd half
I think part of the problem was that the pats were in an unfamiliar territory of playing with a lead and then having the clock work against them.
The one thing that bothered me on the last drive was the defensive offside by wake...the time was more important than the yards which gave me the idea that in the last 2 minutes, defensive penalties need to all be treated as 'dead ball' and have the time put back on the clock.....this would even make it easier to dispense with the spot of foul PI
That was always the worry. If the Patriots defense doesn't take away the ball, the yards they give up begin to matter because it eats up clock and would eventually lead to points for the opposition. With the terrific offenses of years past, they could make up for those games when that did happen. Now with all the changes on offense and the lack of turnovers from the defense (and the yardage allowed still piling up), it means close games most weeks.Yep, this was a topic that was brought up while watching the game with a group of friends. Early on, the D was getting the ball back for the O, which not only killed opposing drives but gave a struggling/learning O extra chances to put something together.
Lately, if the O isn't putting up points, the lack of TO's is really having an impact.
Also, wtf
At one point I swear the Patriots fans were louder than the Miami fans.
Dude, really, get a perspective. These guys are pressed right up against a deadline - occasionally, despite writing thousands and thousands of words and lines, they let something slip. King has fact checkers on the staff to confirm the latest news. One of them likely let this slip through as King surely had two versions written previous to the Pitt/Cincy and the editor/checker was supposed to use the one that fit the outcome of the late game. And had Cincy won his original summation would hardly have been "sensationalist."
Then there was an egg-laying of the highest degree in Pittsburgh
Peter King has a deadline like Florio or Bill Simmons have a deadline, none. The fact that he had written this for the Bengals
Clearly shows he did these after the Sunday Night game which means the hack should have known the Bengals stayed the #3 seed. Which meant the Patriots stayed the #2 seed.
lol trying to act like he has fact checkers and had two versions. The guy was at NBC watching the Sunday night game writing his monday morning piece and the damn thing was posted at 9am today. More than enough time to catch his own mistake.
He's a sensationalist hack
Stop being a Peter King honk homer. Maybe you should PM a mod to have them change your name to King'sButtBoy
Dropped 2 Ints yesterday. Collins and Ryan.Dennard and Talib are both still obviously hurting and are simply gutting it out. I think the bigger concern is the fact that they are no longer generating turnovers.
I believe he grew up in CT, raised his family in NJ, moved to and lived in Boston recently and then moved a while ago to Manhattan where he now resides. I'm actually embarrassed that I know this. He's a pretentious, phony dink.He lives in Joisey. But he was born in Springfield, MA.
just following the national media "I'm so sick of the Patriots already" storyline.
If that was manning it would be considered a clutch win.
I dont give him much credence or his opinions. He is all over the place. Having said that he did mention in one place that cincy let the #2 seed and than missed about the pats waking up to #3 seed. Its a mistake , he acknowledged on twitter and corrected . Happens.
6. New England (10-4). Five games in a row, every one on the edge of a cliff. Loss at Carolina. Twin 34-31 wins over Denver, Houston. Gift 27-26 win over Cleveland. And Sunday’s game, ending with three failed shots at the end zone, down 24-20 at very loud Miami in the final seconds. So 3-2 in those five, and all it means is the Patriots are in every game, dominating no one.
