The Official Patriots vs Bengals Game Thread

[Ozymandias]

The defense is the reason this game is still within reach.

You can't blame them for anything. They've done an impressive job today.

Give Bengals D some credit, but the O is about as bad as I have seen in MANY years for this game. I know we have some injuries and new personnel, but still they are playing bad all around.

Let's hope they can pull it together on this last drive [fingers crossed... it can't hurt]

Ok I just wear my Pats luck hat

:rocker:

 

[Harrisoned!]

Of course Huber gets off a 60 yarder for the first time all day.

Gronkowski is not going to solve this team's problems.

He helps in the pass game, the run game, and red zone efficiency.

Would've been huge to have him in this game.

 

[DOGWARZ]

Of course now it downpours.

 

[SoCal Pmen]

That's funny...or rather weird...I just scanned back 20 pages and all I see is the "defense is getting gashed!!!", "they can't stop anybody!!!".."Kelly out,we're doomed!!!

13 points on Cincy's homer field with all the weapons at their disposal and the Pats D sucks?

I didn't say the Pats D sucks. I said they put the offense in position to win this and the offense has not come through.

ehhh, that 3rd and 16 from the 2 was a game changer.

Brady's done it with worse skill players. Let's see if he can do it again.

Gonna be tough in the rain.

Not sure about that one. Maybe less skill, but not less experience.

 

[Ivan]

Win or lose this was an exceptional performance by the D, and should give most patriot fans a great deal of optimism about the rest of the season.

Remember when you had a lot of confidence that Brady was going to pull it out for them? That was awesome.

No he hasn't

And if he has, then what's the excuse now

 

[PatriotSeven]

These guys just cannot catch.

 

[heavyde050]

Practically every caught ball today was wobbled.

Was that pass wobbled?

Don't defend the WRs. They have come up just as short as Brady

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

just get on the plane and go home...

 

[andrewgarrr]

No he hasn't

And if he has, then what's the excuse now

There is no excuse.

 

[vyrago]

Practically every caught ball today was wobbled.

And bobbled too.
