The Official Patriots vs Bronco's game thread

Talib is on the sideline with a huge jacket on.

wes took a contract for less total money to leave. He didn't want to stay in NE.

If the pats wanted him, he'd be here

 

[Deus Irae]

So, to sum up the game to this point:

Ridley/Blount can't hold onto the ball
Neither can Edelman
Amendola can't get separation, and can't stay upright when he does
Gronk is still not 100%
Solder is committed to being a turnstile this year
Connolly-Wendell continues to be a disastrous interior pair
DTs suck against the run and have been solved against the pass




I think that about covers it, but feel free to add anything I've missed.

I'm watching the DEN O-line pushing the NE D-Line like a marching band just moving along. We just have no beef on the inside.

 

[ParisSun]

Just one of those games, just throw away the film.

We've been over this. I won't comment again.

Meanwhile, Jones continues to be a beast.

 

[cavtroop]

Jones is in beast mode.

Goood....good

 

[English Patriot]

Chandler Jones is my favourite player. Anyone else agree?

grounding perfavore

 

[YearbookCurfew]

No intentional grounding?

 

[SVN]

manning is going to go for the kill right now

 

[Ozymandias]

Chandler has the closing speed of a corner. Unreal.

Forced that intentional grounding all the way.

 

[fumbrunner]

Anyone that just assumed Amendola would step in and be a 1 for 1 replacement has been wrong to this point. Brady is missing his security blanket on 3rd down. It would have been great to have Vereen and Welker out there together. Amendola isnt the same player.

 

[YearbookCurfew]

Oops, disregard last post.

 

[Brady6]

See the coverage by Justin Green on Thomas? That was the highlight of the night right there for us.

 

[PatsBoy12]

Chandler Jones has made one of the biggest jumps I've seen in a player in recent memory. He's been all along the D-Line. He's played OLB in the 3-4. He's literally been everywhere this season.

And how about our coverage. Our DB's came to play.

 

[PP2]

Wow.. we just saw Manning get completely fooled by the coverage on that snap. Initially appeared to a cover 2, not sure what that morphed into but it caught Manning flatfooted.

 

[PatsWSB47]

see Manning is doing nothing.

Vereen can't catch that ball down the sideline ...

Edit: ANd the dreaded third and long ...

 

[English Patriot]

Sick of this lucky Denver, a bounce never goes against them. Why couldn't that tip get picked off by us?
