JOSH IS STAYING!!

They led the league in points allowed from the month of October through the end of the season.

Why would you expect massive changes? I don’t see it any different than any other year. Actually, we probably have much less concern due to FAs, etc. They need to add a decent player on all three lines of the defense and get HT, Valentine back.

It tells you how little that stat means. How down the league has been and maybe what kind of.competition we faced all year.

You can't be happy with how they played Sunday and you can't excuse it.

The defense needs help.

This really lessens my concern about Lewis going to another team in free agency. I was convinced MacDaniels was going to outbid NE for him. It doesn’t make him a lick to return but it definitely helps.

OK, that's you. But to make the blanket statement the MOU's and LOI's are not legal is simply not true. It really varies from case to case. Anything that anyone signs has the potential to bite them in court as a legal document.

Right now Schiano is filing suit against Tennessee based on their MOU. A lot of people think he has a strong case.

The NFL prohibits signing contracts for coaches still in the playoffs. If it turns out the Colts had him sign the equivalent of a contract then they should be in just as much trouble as anyone otherwise the NFL's rules are meaningless.*

*not that logic or fairness play a role in the NFLs decisions.

ESPN's Chris Mortensen reports there are still doctors who have concerns about Andrew Luck's shoulder and whether he may require additional surgery.

Chris Mortensen isn't exactly a credible news source around these parts

Brady would of tossed for 1000 against the pats defense.

And I'm not joking.

no, he wouldn’t have.

pats d led the nfl
in points allowed since oct 1. bb would
have baited brady into staring down gronk all game, like many def. coordinators find a way to induce him to do.

pats d valiant and underrated and eagles d clearly vastly overrated

just think, if bb did not draft jimmyg, brady would still be 2007-2012 medicore postseason brady

thanks for everything, bb

lol

what defense doesn’t need help? hightower certainly helps. are you kidlings honestly this dumb to think hightower meant so little?

seek help

You do get the feeling that Josh is one element that makes the Brady/Belichick relationship work smoothly. Tom's all emotion and Bill's all cold logic, and Josh always seems to be the smooth go-between of the two.

They won more Super Bowls without Josh than with him. I don't think he's nearly as important as people think.

Can you please post in a way that doesn't make my eyes bleed when I try to read it?

true, but i said that weeks ago when i could not figure out why mcdaniels would set himself up to fail

 

[DarMan]

Jimmy...Josh here..RK said if I stayed I can use one of the Patriots planes anytime I want to..what can you do for me?
Jimmy - I got this

7-9 is an improvement on 4-11,now where did I put that damn phone.I know I had it a minute ago.

I kind of agree, on a strictly coaching level, but Tom considers Josh magical--just like he considers a short, white, ex-quarterback the best receiver ever--and that perception goes a long way to making Tom comfortable. It's like how they give racing thoroughbreds a companion goat to keep them calm, comfortable, and performing well.

Yea. He would have. Foles put up almost 400.

This defense you'e defending so badly is the only reason w3 lost.

You don't put up 500 yards in the air and score 33 points and lose.. Unless you're defense is ****.

Eagles scored on all but 2 drives.

Stop trolling and embarassing your self. They weren' good. Period.

Interesting paragraph in the middle of Curran's piece:

Prior to the end of the regular season, McDaniels tried to pinpoint the future plans of the team and Belichick but he didn’t get the level of clarity he hoped for. Now that he has that clarity, he’s decided to stay even if he gets demolished in the media for the decision.

Ever since BST started it' really exposed Curran as a fraud.

How this dude with a straight face gonna send out a tweet 10 minutes after schefter confirming McDaniels to stay like we didn' already get the news front the world's most credible nfl reporter.

Aka I take every thing he says with a grain of salt these days.

dude, the d gave up 7 to tenn and 20 to jax.

minny got scorched for 35 vs philly

do the math

brady could have helped in the 1st half more with 3 dropped ints and poor red zone
work

brady was so great in the second half, it covers for yet again a very disappointing sb start

foles was outstanding and did more with accuracy than i expected

tip the cap and move on and stop acting like brady starting so slow is a good thing

*hand clap*

Don't mess with Mr Kraft unless you're Roger Goodell then you can stain his franchise and quarterback with a bogus suspension and cheating legacy and you'll still be boys.
