Let this sink in...Brady barely has 50 yards passing in this half. That has got to be his lowest ever in a half or close to it. I refuse to believe he has gone so far down since just last year. Something else is going on .
Injuries....
 
Running game looks good, Patterson and Michel productive...the fumble was great tackling from Buffalo... biggest concern is the quarterback who has all the answers to the test...Brady has been a liability today and for the 6 quarters prior...they cannot win a game relying on the quarterback...good call Krafty...
I'll take a banged up TB over Hoyer any day.

BTW, the Pats are winning.
 
Bill has got to feel good knowing he was right and Bob Kraft was wrong in trading Jimmy away and keeping an ageing quarterback.
 
I hope that knee heals before playoffs
 
The gameplan is heavy run based in the first half at least. A couple of drops, an interception and some missed throws and there you go. Would you feel better if we were 14:0 up with 150+ yards of passing but no run game ?

I'm not saying that. I'm just stating that these numbers state that either Brady is not sharp or the coaches do not have confidence that he can get it done throwing the ball. That is a sad state of affairs either way !
 
Need a score here to open the half

Oh come on. Buffalo is only defending the pass. The Pats are running the ball at will. They have 179 yards rushing at halftime.

Didn’t he have that week 17 @miami when all we did was run sjax?
 
Maybe bc he ran EP variations at Louisville?

Yeah but not into NFL level windows against NFL level defenders. He is not even close to a NFL level thrower even now 16 weeks in. But I am sure the Ravens are just not aware of his amazing passing success in college and thats why they barely let him throw.

Jesus..
 
Listen I agree it’s best to find the right match than throw darts at the board and hope for the best, but if you take a look at all the QBs drafted this year, there is a giant crop of talent that has preformed well in their rookie season.

I just find it hard to believe that not one of them wasn’t a fit for this system. Again, we have a 41 year old QB. To not have someone in place at this point is bad planning towards the future.

Who is this giant crop of talent available, and which ones were available within 10 picks of where the Pats were drafting?

There are a lot of good reasons not to pick Lamar Jackson, and the other QBs who are producing were never viable options on account of where we were drafting.
 
Maybe bc he ran EP variations at Louisville?
Exactly.

Guy ran the Erhardt-Perkins in college.

Not a stretch to think he couldn’t do it here after a few years in the system.

I think someone of you just see “running QB” and think he couldn’t work here. Not true.
 
How exactly would any of Jacksons supposed potential fit in the offense that is run in NE and the players that are around ?

He is as bad of a fit for the classic Patriots offense as it gets. If you want to rebuild the offense to fit him more you will have to do so with the entire offense including a QB3 that can backup Jackson and run that changed offense in case Lamar gets injured.

Similarly if you don't want to bench Brady then there is no point in advocating for a QB over a RB. One of the two can help in the next 2-3 years. The others requires a total rebuild.

The next QB of the Pats will probably be a Jackson type.

Did I miss something, I thought jimmy was on the shelf with a bum knee and a 120 million dollar contract?

He was 100% right to trade Jimmy.
 
Maybe it's time to consider drafting Brady's replacement.

Kid from Buffalo really impressed me last night. Huge athletic kid. Odd delivery but big arm. He could be Mahomes.
