"Flashback to last time Pats played in New Orleans" & Strangely Similar Concerns

[BradyFTW!]

I think we're running out of ways to observe that the Pats played a really, really ****ty game. If anyone's still disputing that claim, they really should stop. But it is just one game, and it's one game that we escaped without major, long-term injuries. I'd much rather be on the losing side of this game and relatively healthy than on the winning side but losing one of our best players in the process like KC did.

Where does it say it was from 8 seasons ago?

Unintended humor. Always the best!

You are getting throttled for this.

Welcome to 2017

So much effort wasted on such a stupid premise. Sad..

Lol Just saying.... the tone of Brady's comments and concerns about players' attitude is eerily remisicent of the 2009 Saints game, when we last played in New Orleans, and Belichick was filmed making disapproving remarks about lousy play, lack of focus, etc

Obviously, there isn't much resemblance other than that. It's a superficial - and perhaps misleading - comparison. But it does address concerns that are seldom ever made about Bill Belichick's teams (the exception being 2009 and perhaps 2002)

Patriots fans now are like parents who's child is rushed to the ER for a runny nose.

Because that's when the game happened. Or did you think they had a time machine?

Yes but that was in like Week 10 or 11 if I remember correctly. If a team keeps having those issues more than 2 months in then it is definitely time to be concerned. We are only one game in.

Eight years ago...
I had more hair.
BB had more hair.
TB12 had less hair.

Mrs RW thinks TB12 had a facelift

She says he had more lines around his eyes last year. I don't see it but she's pretty good about that stuff

Although the "tweet" post was from a long time ago, this is a discussion worth having.

If anything, a pleasant stroll down memory lane, revisiting likely the worst Patriots team since 2000 (2002 was not as talented). Adalius Thomas, and snowy drives to practice. Tons of fun.

BB had a quote in "A Football Life that makes sense to say in this thread.

‘I don’t know. But it’s screwed up, and you need to get it fixed.’ ”

Here is the special just to refresh your memory.

Someone clicked "Disagree" which he/she has a right to do. The question is why are you reading this thread?

Because I like seeing people overreact to a game that happened over 8 years ago on Week 12 of that season to a sloppy Week 1 loss in 2017.

Other than the coach and QB, where they're playing and the two teams playing there's literally nothing else similar about these two games.

OMG!!!! It seems as though some of you are NOT MENTALLY TOUGH!!!

Relax! It was ONE GAME!

It does seem like the last time NE was in NO.

NO won the Super Bowl that season.

Deuce McCallister and Joe horn are going to score like a million points against this Pats D.

Better hope Horn doesn't still have that Flip Phone hidden in the goal post.
