Post Game Thread - Pats vs Jags

[SHOWTIME15]

I think for the most part everyone is worried about the defense and their ceiling.

Needs:
Rivers
Impactful DT play
JCJ or Crossen pushing Rowe
More athleticism at LB on 3rd down.

What's up with Rivers? Seriously, I'm pi$$ed he hasn't played a single meaningful snap in this league.

This team needs to play better upfront defensively. I think that’s the biggest issue right now. They’re getting whipped left and right.

 

[SEA_Pat]

Patriots are not a hot weather team. That's a good thing.

 

[supafly]

Eric Rowe is not a #2 CB. I've been saying that ever since he arrived.

You haven’t been alone, my friend.

 

[Fatmancryin]

I worry about this team defensively though. What is their ceiling? They clearly lack talent in certain spots. Clayborn has been a waste. Hightower looks slow. Guy needs to play better.

They lack talent in certain spots cause they draft like crap and have to sign Jags and UDFA.

 

[Fatmancryin]

DMac wasn't much better.

Neither was Chung Pre Concussion.

It’s been no bed of roses.

It's a challenge before the whole human race. They ain't going to lose.

4th and inches I agree with. I'm 50/50 with the onside kick attempt because pinning deep , which didn't happen, can be just as good IF you get a 3 and out.

I disagree with the giving up bit though. Just no ball bounced their way today.

It was 24-13. 2 score game with plenty of time left. Going for it inside their own 20 is a high risk, low reward move.

 

[Silver Blue&Red]

They sucked tonight. All around. Or as BB says " In all phases of the game".

We all know they will get better.
It's always scary to see if they will overcome.

Today was pretty ugly to see that lack of urgency from some prominent players (Hightower, Rowe)..etc The heat? IDK
I was very impressed with D last week.

Once again we have to see if BB's gamble on some J.A.G's will pay off.

Damn , I miss Jules.

They will figure it out.

 

[Charlotte Pats Fan]

as well as letting Eagles do whatever in closing game...

Yup, and your point is? Pretty sure 30 other nfl fan bases would have loved to ***** about their team playing in the Super Bowl

I am sad!

No, but it was far worse after he left. Jason McCourty was worthless.

 

[Joker]

It's all bad. 2nd game and we're already done. Never going to get better. I've had enough of this constant crap from this team. I'm done. They have no one any good on this team. Every other team is way way better across the board. I'm outta here...who's with me?????????

 

[moejr]

They'll improve as time goes on don't know by how much, I think Hightower is still rusty, this is his Second regular season game since last year, but one thing I can bet this will be our worst game this season.

I would save that last thought till after the KC game

 

[PatriotsNumero1Fan]

I am sad!

When they win the division and likely win between 11 to 13 games you will be happy.

DMac wasn't much better.

Dmac has become an issue when it comes to overall performance for the amount of $$$ he’s making.

 

[Kdo5]

It was 24-13. 2 score game with plenty of time left. Going for it inside their own 20 is a high risk, low reward move.

I'm still pissed at them overturning the White first down spot. It feels like those kind of challenges never result in an overturn. And unless I missed an angle I saw nothing conclusive suggesting it should have been.

 

[QuantumMechanic]

Wonder how many people going on here about how horrible the defense and how any moron could see it and how the offense has nothing besides Brady and how any moron could see that picked NE to win the game relatively easily.

 

[supafly]

Neither was Chung Pre Concussion.

The whole secondary sucked, aside from some flashes by Gilmore and a little hustle by DMac. I don’t remember seeing an opponent who had that many wide opens plays in a long time.

 

[TommyD4207]

Dmac has become an issue when it comes to overall performance for the amount of $$$ he’s making.

He was pretty bad most of last season too - even though it got ignored, mostly.
