I see #55 out there but VERY rarely here his name called. Stsrting to think hes a wast of a third rnd pick.
It wasn't until I watched the Eagles' defense last year that I realized how bad our defensive play calling was. Jim Johnson (along with LaBeau, Spagnuolo, and Ryan) could line anyone up out there and do well. Johnson put Trent Cole, Sheldon Brown, and Dawkins out there, and it didn't matter who else was on the field; you were going to struggle against them. We have a far more talented team than the Iggles, and we still get torched by the Kyle Ortons and Trent Edwards of the world.
This is what pissed me off. They should have played Orton the way they played noodle-arm Pennington in December '04...clog the middle, dare him to throw outs consistently. Springs and Bodden should have been playing man-coverage, cheating inside. Instead, they played outside and got burned repeatedly with the skinny posts. There's no way Orton has the arm to throw outs against man coverage all game.I dont think Pees has ever seen a quick in ever in his life till today. im pretty sure 90% of ortons passes were quick ins... their offense was so predictable i called most of the passes thrown by orton...Pees is a bum and i do wish harm upon him and his soul...yes im mad
i have to agree he looks very slow
I remember a quarterback this team once had who constantly keyed in on one receiver, regardless of how he was covered. That quarterback was Drew Bledsoe, and that receiver(tight end) was Ben Coates. I am beginning to see a Bledsoe/Coates-like relationship with Brady and Welker, and it is starting to become detrimental to this offense. On the play where Brady got stripped (while using the Byron Leftwich wind-up), the replay showed Ben Watson clearly wide open on the left hashmark, but Brady was staring down Welker and waiting for him to get open. The Jets game is when I first started noticing this, because when Welker wasn't in there Brady looked lost and out of sync. If they took as much as time to get Moss involved in the offense as they did Welker this offense wouldn't be bogging down as much, IMO. I believe (and I could be wrong) Brady only has one completion of over 30 yards this year. He isn't hitting the deep ball at all (missed a wide-open Moss AGAIN today), and on the drive where Denver gave the Pats two 4th down conversions on punt penalties, he was horrendous. I know the numbers say he isn't playing awful, but it seems like for stretches he gets into a funk, and seems like it happens at very inopportune times. (does it remind anyone else of 2002?)
I am becoming concerned with the offensive gameplan. No play-action ever, now Vollmer could be getting alot of time. Where the hell is Green-Ellis? All the kid does is produce when he actually gets to play. Get Florence Maroney off the damn field, he has had ample opportunity to come through, and he hasn't.
The Dean Pees experiment is becoming a huge issue with me. Romeo Crennel is out there, right? He doesn't have an exclusivity agreement with Coors or something? The defensive play-calling in overtime was godawful, I thought Myron Guyton and Maurice Hurst were part of the DB crew the way they were playing the Bronco receivers.
God I hate it when this team plays in Denver. HATE IT!

I can't wait to pull this thread up when the Patriots are 12-4 at the end of the season and TB12 is enjoying the buy week waiting for the winner of the Ravens Jets game.
Yeah, because rubbing our faces in a "Vent Your Frustration" thread should be the highlight of anyones day!
