The Official Patriots vs Texans game thread

[Nordberg]

I'll say it again

D. Hightower absolutely blows

 

[TomPatriot]

Holding on that TD. Pretty bad stack.

 

[Ozymandias]

Sloppy .

 

[TonyTucker]

We're seeing how valuable Wilfork is

 

[PP2]

Or the porous o-line

No. It was a numbers game. Texans had one more rushers than we could block. Brady should have slid protection to the left and had Vereen chip or roll out for the screen.

this is why they pats need the #1 seed to reach SB

Definitely seeing the effect of the Wilfork/Kelly injuries on those runs up the middle against the Pats, once again. #FOAud

only way to make teams out of their running game is to score a lot of pts early. But we are hurting there too.

 

[PATRlOT]

This is so embarrassing.

When's the last time we played 4 quarters???????

 

[PatsBoy12]

Where you at, Rob? Care to revise your opinion of just how bad the run D is now? I'd say that you should see that it's every bit the problem that people are making it out to be.

 

[dannydyn]

Schaub is probably cursing the Pats D for letting Case looking an HOFer....

 

[Calciumee]

I miss Big Vince

And Hightower isn't playing well enough!

 

[Brewskies]

IMO we aren't playing well enough to have tried that field goal. They get position and put up 6.

 

[woolster22]

How Hightower wasn't held by the center is beyond me. Got wrapped up at the point of attack...

Didn't someone on here surmise they were only calling holding on plays where the hold has an impact?

That's fourteen points on non calls...

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

I miss Big Vince

And Hightower isn't playing well enough!

hightower is a joke

 

[wolverinejoe80]

gotta score this drive. 3 or 7. gotta score.

Wondering if the heavy use of zone coverage by the #Patriots is related to a concern about secondary health...

Tom E. Curran ?@tomecurran 1m
Hightower needs to get off that block better but safety support non-existent before Tate got rolling downhill with no brakes. #PatriotsTalk

It is after Thanksgiving. Identities are established after Thanksgiving. We absolutely suck in the first halves of games. That is our Identity.

 

[patsinthesnow]

Who was the poster that said David could only play safety here?

 

[TruthSeeker]

What the hell is going on over there. ? WTF. Do they WANT to play a road playoff game ? They are playing like they don't give a ****. I can't see the game, stuck with the Jet's game, but WTF. I guess no home playoff games for us.

 

[stcjones]

Wow. This defense sucks. Nice tackle McCourty.

Once again so many fcking HOLES on this team....might as well be a busload of cheerleaders(u see what I did there?) )
