Ridley time?

 

[Fansince77]

Talib is pretty much useless when it matters, must be made of China. Pats need to up their intensity.

 

[cavtroop]

at this point, its clear DEN is working hard to take the run away. I say go with vereen, drop him out wide, and pick them apart until they loosen up.

Swing vereen back into the backfield for a few quick runs, easy peasy

Run blocking has to be better than this if these running plays are gonna work.

Jeff Howe ?@jeffphowe 2m
Talib is back out of the locker room.

 

[4thDown&GoingForIt]

Is it time to abandon the run yet?

 

[Dutchmaster617]

Are we passing with Blount in the backfield? They are focused on him so I wonder if Brady is passing when he is out there.

 

[Patsfan_22]

Terrence Knighton doing his best Wilfork impression

 

[Gronk]

No, it was a pick and should have been called Offensive Pass Interference.

I agree, but it hasn't been called all season (on Denver) so they need to look out for it.

 

[TonyTucker]

Denver's pass D stinks

 

[JMarr]

Talib says **** it and takes the needle. Stud. No way he's not playing.

This. A thousand times.

 

[DefenseRules]

Talib is back. I hope Collins takes Welker's head off the next time he tries that BS play.

 

[Fencer]

I know it's routine, but I really like that Hooman play anyway. It was a pretty high throw, but of course he's a tall guy who can catch balls over his head.

 

[TomPatriot]

Crieky, Blount falls and Nantz raves on the Denver run D.

Of course Denver has zero pass rush. Zero. They can't stuff the run and rush the passer.

Doesn't matter when you intentionally try to injure a player

 

[Brady6]

I think they should ride Ridley for a while, he is a little more explosive and dynamic getting to the outside than Blount, and the Broncos are really plugging the middle right now.

 

[Brady2Gronk]

Need a classic peyton int to finish the half after we score

Pretty much the Gronk of the D?

 

[cardiak]

No welker threw a pick at Talib which is offensive interference and the patriots really need to abandon the run with Blount he isn't getting gaping holes. We have two other running backs that are better suited to this game

 

[Deus Irae]

Stop blaming the refs! I'm SICK of it. Every single fanbase of every single team does this when they're losing. LOOK at the Pats out there... they're not tackling worth a damn

No excuse for not calling the Welker hit on Talib after the penalty they called on the Hooman.
