Official Game Day Thread- Week 12...... Pats @ Jets

[StockingAnarchyNumber12]

Well BB just got out coached on that one...

I assume he didn't want to risk them getting more yardage since he knows the D has some issues?

 

[TbSB5]

Why the hell decline the penalty?

What an awful start.

Because the vailla defense wouldve still ****ed up a 3rd and 18

 

[Mack Herron]

Bad call Bill.

 

[ScottishPatriots]

Our defense is so bad we don't push them out of FG range cause we don't trust them to stop them from getting 18 yards in 1 play.

I don't care what people say about this defense, the tell tale sign is Bill thinks it's terrible is he's coaching around it.

 

[ashley]

Take the penalty out of FG range?

not with our 3rd down defense, even though it would have been 3rd and 18....I've seen too many 3rd and longs converted this year.

[festy1986]

Literally tells you what belechick thinks of his defense when he won't accept a 10 yard penalty for 3rd down and 18 to push them out of field goal range because he doesn't believe his team can prevent them from a 18 yard gain

 

[bubbaInSC]

nice kick.

 

[SVN]

yay..we gave only 3 pts. Thats all it matters, no TDs, best scoring defense in the league

 

[PatriotsPimp136]

This offense need's a drive.

 

[ViperGTS]

9 in coverage

He was wiiide open

You can put 20 in coverage. If it's zone and you have no rush, someone will get open.

Zone looks only work when you get a pass rush from the front. If Seattle didn't have Bennett, Avril et al they would be playing zone. Or they'd look usually like us.

ccol pic...

 

[Gronkowski123]

BB, why wouldn't you accept that penalty to make it 3rd and 18.? Knowing Novak has a big leg...

some BS holding call could **** us over..

jets lead 3-0

 

[aluminum seats]

I don't mind not taking the penalty. No sure thing they don't get a first and that is no sure FG anyway.

Pretty sad commentary on this defense.

 

[Foxypats]

Penalty should have been accepted...this feels like BB has no faith in the D

 

[DefenseRules]

This defense makes me

 

[Kontradiction]

3rd and 8......

good job, give them 3 points.

Belichick didn't trust the defense to not give up the first down if they accepted.

 

[LightSkinSmurf]

Thank God the Jets got points there. These fools may make it a good game after all.

Are you drunk or trolling?

no way...would have been 3rd and 18..push them back
