Post Game Thread Pats @ Saints

[maineman209]

Did Harris even see the field today?

Nice to see Brady and Gronk are themselves again. I wasn't horribly worried after week 1, but with Brady being 40 you just never know when the dropoff can occur. He's certainly still quarterbacking at a grand level.

2 most encouraging things afterwards to me was Dorsett and Wise. Chances are we will need them in order to withstand the losses at WR and DE. Both had good games - actually Wise had a great game.

White continues to impress - his new deal is a steal for us IMO for what he brings to the table.

A little bit disappointed in the ground game, though it was effective enough overall. Thought we could really run on this defense. Hopefully it gets better as the year winds on.

Defense was fine considering no HIghtower. It wasnt pretty at all but if we're facing an exploitable defense this kind of performance is plenty. Gave up the yards but made key stops.

Not a good special teams outing. Saints had some good starting field positions. I think there was a 28 yard punt in there too along with a 5 yard penalty. Another missed XP.

He was a starter on defense, was he not?

Hopefully the Pats announce when they're holding tryouts for receivers soon.

I'm ready for my shot

...and he fumbles the ball through the end zone for a touchback."

Apparently BB has a beef with the technology again LOL!





Bill Belichick brings the Patriots' physical style of play to the post-game podium. That microphone is questionable to return

@ViperGTS how you handling the victory, bud?

Fine loser boy.

They didn't look like an 8-8 team on offense today at least. Brady wasn't the thowing bad passes. It's a week to week thing but they were still suspect defensively.

Hey I'm 6'4" 250

I could at least look the part in pads

I loved that they went with Burkhead in the slot, and it was looking good.

Naturally, given the theme of the season, he got dinged up.

I'm not going to pretend they were world beaters today but they held Drew Brees to 20 points in their building. Let's not forget Brees is an elite quarterback and still top 5.

 

[Oswlek]

but with Brady being 40 you just never know when the dropoff can occur.

Can anyone think of a precedent for a QB's wheels flying off without some air coming out of the tires first?

Yup. Without their top 2 receivers from lost season. Cooks and Snead. In a vertical offense. So yeah. Chung was also exposed big time today. Not enough press man. Too may completions to receivers with 15 yard cushions.

And stupid NFL teams. Anytime Chung was on Kumara one on one in man ball needs to go his way. It didn't, thus the Saints only put up 20.
