Post Game Thread Week 4 Bills @ Patriots

[Tony2046]

Well, currently it's Bennet and the corpse of Gronkowski. He isn't looking very spry out there.

Yeah he's not himself yet but I'm assuming he's still getting back up to speed.

Remember after the 2014 KC game? "I'll make Tom Brady look like Tom Brady" comment. That was after a slow start as well.

We'll see.

 

[long distance]

He is used almost exclusively as a blocker by design to minimise risk and give even more time for his hamstring to get back to 100%. We are not talking about defences shutting him down but the Pats deliberately phasing him slowly back and not exposing him to any dangerous routes or situations.

Bank on him having a monster game against the Bengals and considerably more redzone targets next week with Brady against the Browns.

Might as well bank on you ..

I'm not worried about any aspect of our team except for one: Gostkowski. I raised the topic a while back and lots of people here were dismissive of my concerns. I love Ghost, but he's missing kicks going back to the Denver game last January at a rate that's alarming for the highest paid kicker in the league.

When exactly where those missed kicks last year ? All I see are 3 missed kicks over the entire year with one being 50+ and the other 2 being 42+yd kicks. The year before was even better. Not sure where you see a pattern.

Got anything constructive to say ?

Denver looks incredible, better than last year. Dynasty in the making. Their defense is the best I've seen since Baltimore 2000...
Pats better not have to travel there Vs that D... If that D is healthy Vs the Pats in a January game in Denver it won't be pretty...

 

[PatsFanSince74]

Yeah, ceteris paribus, L v. ARI and W vs. BUF would be better, but it is what it is.

Ceteris paribus. Is this a deflategate appeal thread?

You missed my timeline. I'll restate it for you: not all of last year, but from his missed EP against Denver in January through today. Horrible. Even Zolak, the ultimate are homer, said before last week's game it's a legitimate concern

Curran: Good dose of how hard it is to win in NFL
Game Story: Pats shut out by Bills for first loss of season

good points by troy. Breer thinks something wrong with gronk.

It's October 2. Calm down... Reminds me of the guy here earlier who said the Bills improved their playoff chances today. We're talking about October 2, folks, October 2...

That's the team they chasing.

Way too early to say what things will look like in December.

Misread that.. sorry..

Zolak might be one of the most emotional people out there saying things that are on his mind without a filter. I am honestly not too worried about Ghost his hit rate should still be at at least 85%.. despite a dreadful start into the season.. lets revisit this in a few weeks

Well they have to keep pace. I am not in love with the donkeys's schedule. Doesn't look too difficult.

You mean the team that had no business even being in the playoffs last year if the Browns, Chiefs, Bears & many more didn't constantly **** the bed and gave away game after game with stupid turnovers/missed field goals/incredible ref calls (hello ghost PI on chung in the endzone) ?

The team that almost couldn't handle an average Panthers team at home and again had to rely on a missed field goal ?

The only history they are making is their improbable series of getting turnovers handed to them.

 

[PatsFanSince74]

Nobody's panicking but it put's more pressure to win because they chasing the donkeys. The donkeys right now can't do anything wrong.

Siemian just got carted off. It's a long season. For now, the Pats are on to Cleveland.

Hey, I'm with you. As I stated earlier, I love the guy, but Im concerned. And you're right about Zolak (I love his emotion but think he's light in the IQ department), but his comment wasn't made in the emotion of a game. It was on his show the week after the Miami game. And it was unsolicited.

They're nothing special at all. I'm telling you, this Patriots team will obliterate them and their refs in Mile High, as long as there's no major injuries like there usually is.

I despise Breer, but I agree with him on this one.

Holy ****. One game loss vs bills with a 3rd string QB and this is the level of overreaction to denver ?In week 4 ? Thats all it takes ?

They haven't beaten a single team above 0.500. Relax, kiddo.
