Jonathan Jones & James White appreciation thread

[JMC00]

Because Myles Bryant and Brandon Bolden have shown how valuable they are.

 

[Hammer of Thor]

Bolden’s been fine for the most part. He’s not White but he’s as reasonable a replacement that one can have with a salary cap. It’s more disappointing that JJ Taylor couldn’t take over the role prior to getting COVID.

On the other hand, Bryant was exposed today and had looked rocky the last few weeks after a quick start. It looked like SB 52 out there again on defense today, and Jones’ injury is a common denominator in both, as were the Eagles and Bills players who played very well those games.

This thread got me thinking, why is it certain media members and commenters look at most Patriot wins as somehow “tainted” when the opposition has a player or two out. Yet, it never works in reverse?

We really missed Jonathan Jones yesterday.

On the other hand, Buffalo had key WR and OL players out and we could not get much pressure on Allen and we gave up a lot of passing yards.

Besides our no defense performance, we have to give Allen credit for some incredible improvisations and an overall very good performance.

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

Interesting to se what Book does. He won a lot of games at Norte Dame.

He and Davis Mills were the QBs I though5b5he Pats should have targeted in the later rounds

Once again people commenting on stuff they clearly have no clue about

Straight up won us the falcons sb.

atl was successfully going man. the crossing routes tiring then out, building to his pass catches exploiting this and their displacement, gave us the greatest comeback in pro sports history.

don’t get Enough credit.

we need a Faulk/white prototype in our arsenal ESPECIALLY given macs limitations.

 

[TheRainMaker]

I think we’ve seen the last of White. Jones sure gets injured a lot.

There’s different kinds of pressure. Was it coming off the edge? Did they contain his rolling out? Don’t be so pretentious about it. Even the Twitter man said it wasn’ta popular take.

Did you see Burkhead's performance Sunday? White might have another year in him.

You can put your **** away, none of us want to see it.

Whatever pressure we were able to get didn't impact the game.

Not having White hurts because a young QB couldn’t ask for a better crutch than an RB like White. I hope he’s back next year.
