Official Game Day Thread - Week 12 Dolphins @ Pats

[mosi]

What did gilleslie do to get benched so? The other guys are better pass catchers i guess.

That would simply be not play as well as the others. And play special teams. Lewis and Burk do special teams.

Also, White is James "I score and will be there when needed" White. Can't keep him off the list. Just can't.

Is Gill a big cap hit? Just wondering. Not to derail.

It's $3.969M for 2017, $3.5M of that guaranteed.

His 2018 cap hit is $2.4M, NONE of it guaranteed.

Gillislee is unlucky that the other three RBs are playing well and are multidimensional. It might be expected that one or another RB would be dinged up or slumping at this point. I hope he's taking it well. For all we know we'll need him in a critical spot.

At the bar for a 10am game. Gotta love Vegas.

Here's hoping for an injury free Win.

not a lot of confidence for this game… i expect the fish to roll over us

 

[PatriotsNumero1Fan]

Curious to see how our run defense looks with brown back in the fold. Hope it's a lot better.

 

[Mack Herron]

Dorsett break out today?

TB12thegoat...Im sure you jest.....however I don’t expect a cake walk either...never seems that easy against these guys....sure would love it though.

Patience, the exquisite pleasures of the gameday thread will soon be upon us!

Ocho and Boyce too.

with brown back in the fold. Hope it's a lot better.

Its been said already, but the middle of the run D has been pretty good since about game 3...if the edge gets shore up, the ripple effect will echo throughout the front seven.

 

[reflexblue]

Wonder if it is an attitude or production related problem...tough to be stuck behind Burkhead, White and Lewis.......Pats have a great group in their backfield including Develin.

Didn't he fumble at the end of a long run? If so we all know BB doesn't like fumbles, so maybe gelesilees in the dog house for that.

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

Let's goooooooo

Next three games can clinch the AFC East

 

[patfanken]

Sounds like the wind IS going to be a factor

 

[goheels22002]

Wow! All starters on the inactive list. Quality depth is an amazing thing.

Agree. It's never easy against these guys but at least it's better up here than down there.

 

[ohiopatsfan]

Just a wild thought; Isaiah Crowell is in the last year of his rookie contract in Cleveland and word out here is that he wants out. How about a sign-and-trade deal with Crow going to NE in exchange for Gillislee? BB may need to add something else to sweeten the pot. I might suggest Allen as a vet backup to David Njoku. Crow is a good receiver in addition to being a strong between the tackles runner. With Allen in the deal, might be able to get a mid-round draft choice from the Browns. Probably won't happen but it's always fun to speculate.

Finally, game time!!!!!
