Patriots Pregame Thread AFC Championship: We are on to Kansas City!

[ViperGTS]

The fact that they are chasing people concerns me

Wish I could leave a funny and winner on this one!

Grass is safer than turf

Not when its chewed up and full of ruts etc.

In a T Shirt. Some message in there...and KC has no idea what is coming.

Seems like all the talk is about "how the Patriots stop the all-powerful Kansas City Chiefs in Arrowhead stadium, the most hostile environment in the NFL?" Why aren't these questions being asked, "how do the Kansas City Chiefs stop the New England Patriots, the reigning kings of the NFL for nearly two decades, the GOAT Tom Brady and how do they outsmart the GOAT Bill Belichick?

 

[WHPats]

Looks like everyone other than this board is picking KC to win.

Almost everyone picked New England to win the Super Bowl last year too. I don't put much stock in predictions. I have faith in the Pats

Mayo says that it’s field turf. Is he incorrect? Is it not field turf and just straight up natural grass?

Natural grass

Everyone else always picks against the Pats. Its what they want, not necessarily what they think will happen. Let em dream. Sometimes you get what you want, but sometimes you don't. It is what it is.

No need to play zone ever again.

Except for the fact that no team can or does play pure M2M for an entire game -- too tiring.

Sorry to break it too you Chiefs fans reading this forum but you're losing this Sunday. I will show you some esoteric secrets of mine.

Patriots are 8-11 all time on the road in playoffs.
Can become 9-11, Chiefs become 10-19 in playoffs.
Brady is going to his 9th SB and Pats their 11th overall.
Pats are the 9/11 team as the dynasty started after 9/11 (Patriot act)
Both planes that crashed into the Twin Towers took off from Boston.
Brady lost two SB against a New York team and against the Eagles. 9 Foles replaced 11 Weltz
Robert Kraft born on the 156th day of the year and 911 is the 156th prime number.

I have so much more but I dont have the time to share. I am saving you Chiefs fans the heartache.

Patriots last game vs Saints finished 36-20, which will also be the Patriots playoff record after this weeks win. Pats over Saints like I told Kontra before the playoffs began.

Bre Payton, 26-year-old writer for The Federalist, dies. Payton = 26 (pythagorean). Brady getting 26th Super Bowl AFC over Sean Payton.
Bre Payton = BREES PAYTON.

Can Brady beat Father Time? if he wins every game including the SB from now on, he will have 237 wins. 237 + 732 = 969 which is the speed of Saturn Father Time. just out the video below. Remember a series was released called "tom vs time" shortly after SB52.

Brady commercial room 237.

I saw earlier I think someone recommended a good book about football X's and O's called Take Your Eye Off the Ball by Pat Kirwan. Any other good X and O football books you guys recommend?

If we need extra pass catchers for Sunday. Aaron dobson and kenbrell Thompkins are available. Jk, I heard we tried to re sign Malcom Mitchell a few weeks ago but he’s still having knee problems.

Anybody notice how well the run D has played since Pittsburgh? I was one of the doubters and they have proven me wrong. In fact, their entire D has played well. Hopefully it continues for two more games.

They've been dominant vs the run but I wouldn't exactly say they've faced all-world running attacks.

 

[Dragda]

The best way to attack that defense is backs in the passing game.
Would love to gef Patterson the ball in space.
Think he could be a big factor in this game.
Give them a taste of chasing down our fastest guy. Patterson isnt near as good at running routes but he runs people over.
Also dont kick the ball to Hill im sure if Either special team does.
Bill might kill someone.

For sure. A lot of 21 and 22 personnel groups would be a great mismatch advantage wrinkle. Using Patterson as a RB in this grouping adds a lot of flexibility.

 

[Belichick8384]

Pass defense since week 12 looks great! So... what are the run defense numbers since week 12? Are we still bad?
