Where did all the idiots from last week go?

Still at the bar...

 

[PatsBoy12]

That was atrocious.

Pre-game, Sims et al were, as expected, predicting the Patriots demise. I turned to one of the guys at work and I said "right about here is when they usually put up a 50 spot on 'em."

Close enough.

They played like hot garbage last week and got rightly called out for it. Today they played great and will be rightly praised for it.

But the question was where did the idiots go? And it’s a valid question.

It’s not like there was any reason to be pissed off

Nice summary:

Kinda supports my take from last week that Lions game was 57-61% played as gift first win for Matt Patricia...

This game... Better focus, urgency play calling, line play, defense. Aggression. Like I said .. sheer will to win expressed by everyone involved. Even the cheerleaders , I think they wore g strings... Go pats

Look we have all been there. But the last 17 years have just taught me to give this team the benefit of doubt until it is mathematically too late. BB & co have earned that much.

It would be wrong for a Patriots fan to react like a Steelers or Cowboys fans if we lose 2 games in a row

I think the point was he was joking about the free speech comment (making fun of other people who bring it up in earnest).

Ugh...I missed it. I thought he was picking on me.

@fnordcircle knows I love him

It really wasn't, at all.

Who replaces Elandon Roberts? Leave Van Noy where he is, on the edge.

Has it ever been "mathematically too late?" Brady missed playoffs in 2002 but lost out on tiebreaker but I don't think he was ever played a game where he wasn't in contention for playoffs or Super Bowl...
And as for mathematically too late during the game. I think the number of games where Brady has lost by more than a touchdown is.....(26/293-- 22 regular season, 4 post season)

Turnover Tommy?

You mean Cliff?

I am DYING to see Gronk and Edelman on the field at the same time again. Thinking that I'll have to wait two weeks for that.

I want to see them go five wide with Gronk, Jules, Hogan, Gordon and Patterson all on the field at once...

If Patterson doesn’t stumble over his own **** all the space created by Edelman, Gronk and Gordon would be just what he needs.

I didn't mind that call. You're at midfield with 24 seconds left and HOU had no timeouts. Best scenario you just have to make one stop or two open field tackles. Hindsight is 20/20 and they ended up giving up a big play but I don't mind taking that chance

It was a really bad call. First, do no harm. Giving the opponent the ball with time and only a few yards to FG range was very harmful to chances of winning. As subsequent events showed.

Is there anywhere to download a condensed or full version of the game? PM me if so

 

[n1997y]

You kids and your crazy names for sex acts. Yeah she gave me the ol' Uber fee minus 10%.

No, you got that wrong. It's a drinking game.

He seems to be trying to force the ball into the few recievers he trusts. When edelman comes back i think that will help greatly.

It should help, as there will be just two receivers he'll trust enough to force feed: Jules and Gronk.
