OFFICIAL: Patriots at Jets Game Day thread

[luuked]

I have no idea why those morons on the broadcast and also people here are too stupid to realize that there was no confusion and we wanted to kick off. The issue was that Slater wanted to choose in which direction to kick.

 

[Big-T]

If that helps eliminate the Steelers, then it's all good.

 

[Brady_2_Moss]

Oh well, not the end of the world. They barely beat us with most of our starters out. We should be much healthier if we face them again.
On a positive note, Carolina lost.

The exchange that could help send the Jets to the playoffs...

I don't think it was a mistake on Slater's part.

Not always wrong, either. Pats kicked to Denver 2 years ago and it worked.

 

[ANGR89]

Did anyone reward the coin toss? Did the ref really say you want to kick before slater said it?

 

[Off The Grid]

LMAO!! It's almost worth losing to watch the Wailing & Gnashing of Teeth hereabouts!!

It's not The End Of The World, *****es.

We live to fight another Day.

 

[PatsfanTN]

A couple of things from today's game:
Time outs needed as defense looked confused and out of place at times- coaching
OT coin flip, wrong call - coaching
End of first half - coaching

Both offense and defense looked sloppy and it doesn't look like the coaches had them prepared well. Maybe next week

Looks to be all on Slater:

 

[SammyBlueCat]

Does Matthew Slater need to undergo the concussion protocol???

 

[Fore2213]

Seriously, the ability to call plays NEEDS to be taken away from JMcD.... He's lost his edge. Calls runs and draws at the worst possible times in a game. Let Brady run the game!!!

Yeah in the rain....

 

[Mustangs84]

I think Slater was referring to he thought they got to choose direction as well, not that they wanted to receive.

 

[ViperGTS]

A bit too easy but it is what it is. Our starting safeties being out made a visibly dramatic change to our ability on D. But credit the Jets. They needed this win or they were all but out of it. They came out and played well....

They get into the playoffs if you meet them they will have the same mindset.

This game was lost 1:45 to go in the half. Sends a bad message that we don't trust you. That should never, ever happen with 12 back there. A FG there wins the game in regulation.

 

[Froob]

Long as Bengals lose tomorrow it's no bigey. I'd rather Jets in than the Steelers.

You can also hear them say, "we want to kick off" if you listen closely. #NEvsNYJ

 

[A Defiant Goose]

It doesn't sound so much like Slater's fault as much as ****ty wording by the ref

 

[Deus Irae]

BB played it as close to the edge all game and he got burned by it. He knew he was doing it going in by sitting everyone and then walking in at the close of the first half.

Again, Slater is a beast for this team. He is a newlywed (11 months ago) and a new dad This past week. It was a mistake but cut him some slack.

?????

His All Pro special teams maven screwed up a coin toss and his CB1 played like a stiff today. How does either of those things have anything to do with BB playing it "as close to the edge all game"?

 

[A Defiant Goose]

The end of the first half makes this game that much ****tier. ****ing sappy play calling

The only moron is whoever made the call to kick.
