The official Patriots vs Raiders game thread

[PATSNUTme]

Please post your insightful comments, information, rants, and knee jerk reactions pre-game and during the Patriots-Raiders game.

I'm very anxious for this game. I don't like the Raiders very much and want to see how the Patriots bounce back from last week.

Let's hope for a good game ( huge Patriots victory) and NO INJURIES.:rocker:

Kinda early

Ridley with a MONSTER game.



Go Pats!

Shootout.

Pats win.

I expect McFadden to be contained by the defense.

It will come at a price though, Campbell will probably have a huge day through the air and people will grow frustrated. But in the end we will not let McFadden beat us, and will pull out a win.

We don't lose two in a row...

We also don't lose to the Bills

I don't want to see another Welker/Gronkowski show. Reminded too much of 2009.

Want the flankers to contribute and that we return to running the goddamn ball.

I have no expectations for the defense considering the injury situation and it being our defense.

Not losing two in a row has to do with preparation and mental toughness. Not losing to the Bills was about the Bills being weak, which they are not anymore.

Was this great mental toughness part of blowing a 21 point lead?

Since 2003 the Patriots are 25 - 2 after a loss. I say we win.

I think they will win also. However I think it will be because they are a better team, and not because of some record that goes back to 2003. That has no factor on this game.

Hoping Brady has a big day these experts prefer Rodgers and Brees over him and I don't know why lol Overall though let's see a pats win

Yeah, pick your poison. Load the box and stop DMC or make sure not give up the long pass play. I vote for stoping DMC. I'm willing to give up some of the long passes with the hopes of a pick or two.

If Run DMC does have a big run, take him down by the legs, he has way too much upper body strength to break tackles. I saw that with Sergio Brown and Fred Jackson last week.

Reiss tweets that Price is warming up on the field.

 

[everlong]

I hope Andre Johnson is ok but he went down in a heap like Welker with no contact. They need to fix that crap turf at Reliant.

Price plays WR, somebody else doesn't. Hmmmmm.

I don't know if I have the stomach to read today's gameday thread.

I'm wondering if he'll return kick offs.

And we a 15 game winning streak against BUF. I personally don't put very much stock into streaks.
