Post Game Thread..... Chargers @ Pats

[RobertWeathers]

He got hit directly on the shoulder. Speculation I saw was AC joint sprain.

What are those Twitter doctors saying?

How may years does TFB have left to try to hit Slater?

 

[WhoaDirty]

They had two TDs called back on penalties.

Both penalties were due to the actions of the person who scored the TD.

I think two more years. Unless Slater wants to play longer.

The Pats were lucky enough to win another ugly game. Lots of room for improvement on both sides of the ball. By the way, seeing how they handled the Raiders, the Bills are legit.

It shouldn't have been that close. If Ghost makes those two FG's they win easily.

DOA...

 

[Mack Herron]

Good news for Patriots' Hogan is he should have time to heal

 

[Pats1989]

Are you sending them to a timeout or something? Stand in in the corner? No dessert?

They don't look like a SB team thus far. Fortunately, neither does any other team.

I assume they'll be staying in Denver for a week before going to Mexico. Anyone hear anything about that?

 

[captain insano]

another win without gilmore. i hope they find a way to keep him on the bench.

 

[Froob]

Anyone gone back and looked at that Chargers OPI play? I'd like to see a replay of that and see if that was a good call.

I dont see the "luck" part of it. Pats made plays and made more of them and as mentioned if Ghost makes one of the misses its a 2 score win.

Also, you say "lots of room for improvement on both sides of the ball." The D has given up; 14, 17, 7, 13, points the last 4 games. While any unit can improve and the Pats always improve in the 2nd half of the season, right now the D is playing extremely well.

I'm not a doctor, but I have two ****ed up shoulders, and just went through a battery of **** on my right shoulder last week.

X-Ray right away is routine to rule out fractures, which would be unusual. What's still on the table are torn rotator cuffs, torn labrums, and AC joint injuries. In my case, I've been able to move my arm the way Hogan did on the bench, but I have a torn rotator cuff and torn labrum. I can throw a football (sometimes very weakly) and can lift my arms to make catches (not above my head though), but about 70% of the time, it's going to hurt like hell.

It may have nothing to do with Hogan's injury, but it's all a wait-and-see process if my experience is anything to go off of. Mine is not bad enough that it absolutely requires surgery, but I've got a six week battery of physical therapy to do and if it doesn't improve, then it's surgery for me.

For what it's worth, I'm being treated at Walter Reed, so I'd call it a major league facility.

Winning ugly isn’t “luck’” it’s knowing how to win.

 

[moejr]

I wonder if our red zone problems are more play calling than execution

 

[mosi]

Agree. Winning close games builds character. The D held up. Again. For all their problems, the held up when they had to. That is a positive thing in my mind.

 

[JMC00]

The Pats were lucky enough

Lucky?

Chargers were lucky with that 87 yard TD run. Other than that they only crossed the Pats 35 yard line 2 times and one of those was on the last drive when the Pats were trading yards for time.

On the flipside Pats crossed the Chargers 35 yard line 7 times in the game.

 

[PatriotsNumero1Fan]

He's not sitting on the bench. If he doesn't play against Denver than it's more than just a concussion. I like bademosi but I find it hard to believe that our secondary's better with bademosi and not Gilmore.

 

[Bruins29]

Chargers were lucky with that 87 yard TD run. .

And that was Gilmore's fault. Diddnt you hear?

 

[DaBronxPats14]

I'm not sure they would know that this quickly.

And BB confirming, releasing so quickly.
