Week 5 New England Patriots at Dallas Cowboys Game Thread

[VrabelJr]

Ya but then the 3 wins were

browns (aided by 5 turnovers)
dolts (aided by 5 turnovers)
lolphins


and Fitzpatrick is their QB

Jets defense is better under Bowles than Rec

This thought will bother the armchair GMs, local media, etc, but the defense is better than last year.

An upgraded front seven, and we replaced a 99 ovr cornerback with a 92-93 kid.

Currently sit top 10 in the NFL in PPG defense at 18.9 PPG. Opposing QBR is in the top 10 and total yards should be around 16th.

Take away the Steelers last drive, Jags last drive and this last drive and yardage wise it is pretty good for Malcolm Butler, Tarrell Brown, Logan Ryan and Justin Coleman (although Coleman has only been here for 2 games)

Damn shame they fell asleep in that bills game.

30-6. The Patriots defense won this game. 19 ppg that will improve over the next 6 weeks.

Pats D really impressing. It's only their fourth game and they really beat up on Dallas' O-line which is one of the best in the league.

There's no way Ninkovich should be playing more that Sheard.

Why do you say that? I'm not disagreeing. What did you see?

I think they work on deception schemes at the end of blowout games and treat the last few minutes as pre season time. IMO

That interception off of Weeden looked like similar to the right side coverage they tried and blew at the end of the Jags game which gifted the Jags a TD.

Sheard has outplayed him by far. Much better pass rusher and has been stouter against the run. At this point Ninkovich only gets the start and snaps because he's a "captain".

Going through the comments after the game is over is hilarious.

Those are conclusions, not observations.

Do a fake kneel down and throw a touchdown just for Jerry.

saving that for next week, just for Irsay

We've replaced Revis (the best possible way) and Browner was never that good.

Don't let the Revis ****suckers read this. They'll have a stroke.

It was good to see Patsboy on the football threads today.

Yeah, that's typically how BB determines playing time.
