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

[luuked]

I don't feel like bumping that thread again but... wow

Yeah by now it's pretty worrisome. But unless he starts to completely meltdown he will stay the kicker until at least the end of the season.

An optimist would say his issues also set up one of those classic narratives for next years America's Game after his game winning FG in the SB

It was like we were trying to run out the clock

Ridiculous!

Look, I've been a fan since the 70's. I appreciate everything this team has done, and especially this coaching staff.

But WTF is up with the downright STUPID coaching today?

I mean think about it. There was 33 seconds on the clock when hogan went down at the 20.

There was 12 left on the clock when they snapped it for the next play.

You had to "attempt" a field goal on 2nd down because there was not enough time left on the clock.

And you have an unused timeout.

Did they legalize weed in NY? Cause this coaching staff simply is not paying attention today.

The mistakes they are making are laughable.

Vinatieri had a pretty bad slump in 2003, but never as bad as Gostkowski has been having this year. But Vinatieri showed you can bounce back from something like this.

Defense has kept the team in this game while the offense has played like ass. If the defense was actually bad (no one with a brain could actually believe that) this game would have been over.

Absolutely correct today. Defense has played above EV

 

[Foxypats]

let's see what half time adjustment they make

 

[ScottishPatriots]

If you take a timeout with 30+ secs left you get 3/4 plays, instead they don't take a timeout and get cute and get 1 play and miss a FG

 

[Halifax_Pats_Fan]

Gonna be a tough win if we pull it out

yup, it always is....

 

[Jlaff]

I guess it could be worse, we could be Carolina Panthers fans, wondering each game day whether you get pouty Cam or not. Newton has 18 yards passing in the half, on approximately 80 yards of offense, over half of which came from one Jonathan Stewart run.

 

[sambam94]

Bill has to not only coach around his defense now he has to coach around his kicker who can't be trusted from inside 40 anymore.

well maybe he should have called the time out and get a little closer.
Belichick choked...and what is Brady doing..he should know better as well.

 

[Dorito Dink]

Kicker just became a priority this off season.

Offseason? They better bring in somebody ASAP if we want to win the SB. Can't be having the ******** we experienced in Denver last year. Gost clearly has the yips and has lost all confidence. Buh-bye, Stephen.

 

[DreamWino]

the longer extra point, while making the games more exciting, has ruined many kickers including Ghost.

 

[TennisBallHead]

It's a miracle that that moron hasn't cost us a game....yet.

 

[Dorito Dink]

Who you going to get?

Is Shayne Graham available?

 

[Froob]

God please stop with this nfl shop commercial.

 

[FourierSeries]

It's a miracle that that moron hasn't cost us a game....yet.

He already has. A pretty big one, too. Last season's AFCCG.

 

[TinhWoodhead]

why not use the timeout??????? seriously, everything was rushed.

so stupid by the coaching. two dumb errors...one to start the game by allowing the jets to challenge lewis's 1st down, now failing to use a time out

another dumb one is throwing bombs to gronk.

 

[ThatllMoveTheChains!!!]

My guess is Brady controls the two minute drill. I'm not sure why the pitch forks are for the coaching staff there.

 

[luuked]

I am assuming the timeout calling in a 2 min drive is on the QB.

I am really, really looking forward to see coaches tape on that sequence because damn CBS decided to show another damn replay of the Mitchell incompletion instead of showing us the team scramble to the snap. It was a pretty weird sequence.

 

[bormio]

Absolutely correct today. Defense has played above EV

We have controlled the run game. We are having trouble on 3rd down. The fumble saved us so far.

 

[Saint Pat]

Vinatieri had a pretty bad slump in 2003, but never as bad as Gostkowski has been having this year. But Vinatieri showed you can bounce back from something like this.

Maybe a change of scenery is good for both Gost and the Pats.
