Patriots Pregame Thread Official Pre- Game Thread- Bucs @ Pats

[mike_usagisan]

I understand but he did quit and left town for a better team that allowed him to coach and make coaching decisions. Would you agree with this statement!

I feel like he wanted something different from Bill and it led to him leaving. It could have just as easily led to Bill quitting.

Plenty of key Saints players were out and the Pats laid an egg. I'm hoping for a much, much better effort tomorrow. Win or lose let's see this team clean up the ST miscues and defensive lapses. Also limit QB pressures. Better play calling too. Even if they lose it would nice to see this team moving in the right direction.

As is Wynn

Patriots​

• OT Trent Brown (calf)
• OT Isaiah Wynn (knee)
• LB Ja’Whaun Bentley (shoulder)
• LB Josh Uche (back)
• LB Kyle Van Noy (groin)
• CB J.C. Jackson (knee)
• S Kyle Dugger (hamstring)
• K Nick Folk (left knee)

Wow! That’s an awesome injury list! FML.

Maybe Matt Patricia should go to the Bucs get yelled at by Brady then Arians will bench Brady and pretend it was a football reason. Advantage Patriots. Hey that seems to be how other teams and coaches roll.

Are you even a real person? You are all over the place. What does it matter what people who have no idea who the players are even think? If Brown plays and if Davis is out I would absolutely not be surprised if NE won. In some arguments with you coaching is most important and defense carries the team but I guess in this case a team missing POSSIBLY their entire starting CB group means nothing. A DC that doesn't adjust means nothing yet you credit coaching here for 50% of the dynasty. Yes we are underdogs but they aren't coming in here and putting up 50 and IF they are missing half their defensive starters no one will be shocked if it turns into a shootout. One day you praise Mac and the next you act like he can't complete a pass against a defense with no CBs.

Mac is still a rookie. He played pretty well the 1st two weeks and then didn't last week. I think he'll do fine tomorrow but look at his receivers. We have a starting TE who drops passes and receivers who can't get separation. I would say the game is much more even with a bunch of the Bucs starters out but with Brady, Godwin, Brown, and Evans, the Bucs will put up their fair share of points.

Secondary for the Bucs seems like an incomplete picture. Could have a total dumpster fire, but could also have a Davis-Sherman-Winfield-Whitehead with Edwards as an excellent third safety. That five is, player for player, well above average. Davis and Sherman are big question marks for different reasons.

Lol, you haven't noticed? He's the biggest troll on the site.

You reminded me that some reporters mentioned they saw a ton of reps with Jonnu in the backfield during portions of practice that weren’t allowed to be filmed. They never ran it during open practices or preseason… and they’ve yet to use it hardly at all in 3 games during the regular season. Have they been keeping it hidden?

I did joke earlier that they're saving all the good stuff for this game (hence a dearth of end zone attempts). I think the last 3 games were the preseason as far as BB is concerned. The fact that he talked about RBs blocking is part of the con, I think.

And yet you and your goon squad keep responding to me...

 

[Ochmed Jones]

If we can generate consistent pressure in the “A” gaps, maybe we will lose by less than 40.

 

[Jim Beankie]

CB Davis now on the injury report. This is not over guys they might not have a defense.

Man I was already looking forward to Jakobi working on this guy. The backup? C'mon for once MJ -> JM for the TD. It's all I'm asking for.

 

[Ice_Ice_Brady]

And yet you and your goon squad keep responding to me...

Aren’t you rooting for the Nationals right now to beat the Red Sox? That’s you’re team, right? You root for Washington DC teams, except in football, where you jumped on the bandwagon of the dynasty Patriots. Why don’t you root for Washington Football Team? Why aren’t you also a Red Sox, Bruins, and Celtics fan?

I get it…you were TommyBrady12, and now the gravy train is gone, so you’re hoping to squeeze a little more out of being a Patriots fan before bailing.

You remind me of someone I know. He roots for the Chiefs and Dodgers, but he still claims he’s not a bandwagon fan because he roots for the local Bay Area teams, too, like the Warriors and Sharks. He’s my nephew. Nine years old. I understand why a kid would want to root for the cool teams. Not sure how an adult (legally, though not by way of that universal rite of passage) like yourself would hop on a dynasty bandwagon though.

Sure in today's NFL when does the QB have coach tag to him.

With Davis out you have:
CB#1 Ross C**krell (#61)
CB#2 Dee Delaney (#67)
CB#3 Pierre Desir (no snaps)
CB#4 Richard Sherman (3 practices)

LMAO

Edit: filter censoring Ross' name.

I think they'll put Adams in there before the last 2 but ya that's my point. If any ONE of those guys is on the field vs an elite QB it's going to be a long day for them (I'm including Sherman because no way he's ready or in shape). In this scenario Mac would have 4 'targets'. It should be a blood bath.

Not that I think NE will win - but the questionable list scares me.

That's pretty horrific.

They may lose more games than pundits anticipated.

This is where I think coaching will ultimately cost them big time.

I trust Brady will make the necessary defensive adjustments.

 

[stcjones]

JC Jackson being out is devastating…..Pats have been struggling to stop the run and now they will be without Jackson to slow dow passing game…..tough

 

[NFL Mystique]

I trust Brady will make the necessary defensive adjustments.

He's going to be in alot of high scoring games.
