NFL Week 8 Games

[luuked]

"The same crap team" as in literally best team in the NFL lol.

Let's give them props man, they are a great team

If you wanna see it like that sure.

I prefer to see a statistically improbable amount of teams ****ing up without any big Denver influence (@Browns missed field goal, our dropped punt @Denver, the Chiefs totally melting down in the last 40 seconds of their home game, the Bengals game at mile high & many more) and then getting carried in the playoffs by a pass rush against decimated or soft teams.

They were definitely not the best team in the league last year but simply the final one left standing. It's essentially the Ravens 2012 all over again, except people like to jerk off to their defensive stats without any context.

Meh, suit yourself. I'll just leave a great phrase by Andre Agassi, when asked if he considered himself lucky:

"I started to get lucky when I started to get good".

There's no problem in complimenting the adversary man, makes it better when we beat them. They were in the Super Bowl twice in the last 3 years now. Stop with blinded hatred lol

I seen more stops in this donkey's game then ours. Too many empty trips by the chargers. Donkeys will find a way to win this game.

 

[TBR]

BS call. He downed the punt before stepping in the endzone. That should NOT be a Broncos touchback.

 

[ViperGTS]

Derek Carr is a ****ing man. Holy **** I get a feeling we will be meeting this guy late in the season on a regular basis in upcoming years.

People here poo poo'd my saying watch out for Oakland this year.

I have no want to see the Pats play in Okland in the playoffs. Zero.

So now you've resorted to just making **** up?

 

[DanishPatFan]

These Refs are loving them some Packer!! FFS its every ****ing game!

Sorry mr. I did make a mistake. I corrected. Don't need to be so aggressive

Against the run i dont agree.

They have struggled at times against the run this year. 21st in yardage against the run and 17th in yards per rush. Carolina, Cincinnati and Atlanta all gashed them on the ground.

Really? wow, that surprises me. Good for us then.

I don't have an issue with complimenting the opponents and some of their turnovers are not lucky but simply due to great pass rush or brilliant coverage by their secondary. And those are well deserved.

But that won't change the fact that their presence in the playoffs is a statistical anomaly if you look at how much needed to go their way to win 5-6 of their regular season games.

I know that the farther we get away from last year the more people want to just rewrite the history of what happened in the regular season but they were a pretty average team that rode their one strength to the SB. Good for them.

 

[luuked]

That better be an incomplete pass dear refs..

That defense of theirs is still far too suspect for this year. I feel good about playing them as far as this year goes anyways.

We don't have the O-line and RB to attack them this way though. But if Dion Lewis gets reasonably healthy by the time we travel to Denver the presence of White and Lewis will offset that. Denver's LBs will have their hands full with them. And that's before considering Bennett and Gronk. Key as always will be the O-line's ability to handle their pass rush.

Agree to disagree. I see your point, i felt the same way. But they have continuous success for years now. That continuity proves that last year wasn't a fluke or a "Statistical anomaly". But hey, that's just me

 

[FourierSeries]

Not a fumble, but it will stand.

Edit: surprisingly, they made the right call.

 

[PatriotsPimp136]

Philip Rivers's just look's like a loser. Hang on to the damn football.

We've never been a running team anyway (at least with Brady). I agree with you though, i think we have the needed tools to beat them.

EDIT - Edited just to compliment Blount though lol. He is my newest favorite Patriot, i'm still amazed by how good he has been

 

[BobDigital]

They were right to over turn it but right to let it play out. Super close.

 

[AtomicDawg]

Whew, SD dodged a bullet there
