The official Patriots vs Raiders game thread

[pwes]

so our only WR routes are verticals now???

why pass 3 straight times when your running game is working very well?

my guess is the time

Guys, for those not watching, can you let us know what Mayo hurt, and whether it is a cart situation, limp situation, etc?

He was limping badly, but they did get him up very quickly. So it is pretty obviously a leg injury.

My best guess, it's either really serious or not at all. Doubt it's a 4-6 week injury. Either 1-2 games or out for the year. (I sure hope not!)

brady's not playing so well this time around

 

[Patriot_in_NY]

Brady not throwing well at all.

 

[PatriotsInGA]

Nice 3 points.

What's going on with Branch? He looks like he is regressing after a big start.

 

[Simkin]

chokekowski breaking the momentum?

How does the announcer know where Brady meant to go with the ball? He know for a fact it was supposed to be back shoulder and Branch turned the wrong way?

That seam route to Gronk is not really open any more. It seems to lead to more tips than catches now. I am sure Rexy is going to have something prepared.

That is their game plan. Gronk is being ganged upon. They are concentrating on closing down the seam.

 

[Rob0729]

I think that was on Branch. They Pats would be throwing for the sidelines on that play and he cut in.

It'll open up again when the Patriots start making plays off of it by having Gronk turn it into a post and things like that.

Brady has lost his mojo since he cut his hair. He shouldn't have cut it!

Woodhead just gimped off the field. Mayo's return deemed questionable. That seems optimistic after watching him on bench for last few

Because it's Tom Brady, it's never his fault lol

 

[NEPatriot]

I'll take it. Let's make some adjustments and come out strong.

It seems logical considering you want your receiver to go out of bounds with only 15 seconds on the clock. Even with two time outs.
