Dion Lewis is going to tear up the Eagles.

Yikes.

This is the Joe Banner/Lombardi connection...Lombardi followed Banner to Cleveland, they fleeced Grigson in the Trent Richardson deal, had Dion Lewis in camp, and then they all got fired.

And fans, trolls and the media wonder why the Pats are so well run?

Well, they're not morons for starters.

Lombardi is the main reason Lewis is with the Pats. Lewis could not make the Browns because he fractured his fibula in 2013 and didnt get back to 100% until late in 2014. Lombardi told the story a few times now on various podcasts.

My recollection of recent Super Bowls is that defense tends to define the 1st half, offense defines the 2nd half.

Challenging my own recollections:





I'm no Ernie Adams, but seems like a general bias towards the offense late as coaching/fatigue kicks in.

I did a quick eye pass of your post and somehow I actually read that as "Only Zeke Mowatt had standout games vs them".

Dust off the Patriot Missiles, boys.

Love a Patriot missle reference anytime..........Victor Kiam (i liked the patriots so much, I sold them out and damn near wrote their ticket to St Louis - Until R Kraft came along).

What about him? When has he outplayed his level because he wanted to show someone?

Honestly... Going purely from the eyeball test, almost every single play since the first snap of Superbowl 49.

Huh?
Brady has been brady, he hadn’t played better because he was facing a team he thought shunned him.
Your example makes absolutely no sense.

 

[Ochmed Jones]

As long as Lewis holds onto the ball, I am fine with him being in the field.

No more fumbles!!!!

Not a team, the Commish himself.

Brady hadn’t done anything because of the commissioner that he wouldn’t gave otherwise done. You don’t need to give tom Brady extra motivation.

Ive said this for years.....Players get over-amped, dome after a halftime with 80K of people in there, so it gets hot. Add in the fact it's an offensive era and offense wins these games now, and of course the D is the first to go.

This is why I've tried to explain the Pats Sb 46 D, did really well considering. It was the offense that failed.

True, but he did...and Tommy is laser focused these days because of it.

No brady is the same he always has been. His focus isn’t because of that. If you believe that you are saying he lacked focus and motivation before Goodell stole 4 games from him and thats just not true.

When that is what you post, you probably shouldn’t.

Make no mistake about it the Cat had a tough day against his estranged relatives. They too possess the quickness we all crave. Never the less FEAR THE CAT!!!!

Speaking and fumbles and chips on shoulders...I think LG Blount force trauma will have things to show his old mates, too.
