Warning don't go there.

That was from last year I believe.

Yeah we needed a few more for sure.

It would help if I read the date of the tweet. Duh.

Some people love to wallow in negativity. I try to avoid these people like the plague. I didn't hear what these guys said and I'm glad I didn't.

Anyhow, all I know is that I remember most of the second half of last season having the feeling that if we got behind we had absolutely no chance of winning. This past Sunday, I was happy to regain my realistic feeling that we could still come from behind to win the game until Miami made that last first down with 2 minutes to go. Even though we lost the game, it was great to get that feeling back.

It seems odd that as much as the Pats dominated most of the stats, it was MIA that always seemed to be ahead.

I don't want to turn this political, and I hope my post gets people to think about the subject without leading to responses in the thread, but I do need to respond to your post. In an attempt to keep the politics out, I'll just put it this way.


This is about race. It's been about race at the QB position for years now. Listen for it, unbiased, and you'll find it.

Not trying to cause trouble, but I honestly don't know what you mean

Obviously, Stats won't mean much unless you can score enough points to win and putting the team in position to win doesn't matter unless the team takes advantage of that position.

There's also so many variables - a bad bounce, bad ref call, (Think Rams - Saints Playoff Game), and just about anything that can contribute to a loss or win in a close scoring game.

No worries. I'm not moving that any further, for the obvious reasons.

They scored in critical situations and we did not. TDs at the beginning of the half are killers in probability

Also, the fact that they won the toss and were able to secure possessions both right before and after halftime

Someone like that would be very useful. I wanted Jones but not devastated. We basically have 60-70 targets to give out so it's like we have a ton but a buy like Brown would have been nice. Keke Coutee is someone I think can play. Not exactly the same mold but we definitely could use another quick hitter option while we wait for Gunna to get there. This team desperately needs another quick / slot type in the Edleman, Amendola, Welker mold.

I think Kendrick Bourne is the intended replacement for the Brown/Welker/Amendola/Edelman role.

Watching the game, I feel the Patriots win if they aren't so conservative with Jones near the end. I think they need to take the handcuffs off and let him do his thing.

Within...reason. Obviously don't let him get hit as much.

There will be ups and downs. But I could see a final state line of: 28 TD's, 6 picks, 3.5k passing yards for the season. Four rushing TD's.
