Game Day Thread Official Post Game Thread- Giants @ Pats

[Zuma]

I see Asiasi and Keene did not play last night and M. Sokol had 51 snaps / 82% (joint most with Tre Nixon)

If they aren’t injured then they should have played all night. They are injured…again. No Seen Keene failed in his NFL experience. Asiasi… want him to make the 53 but he still doesn’t deserve it. Frustrating.

I knew Keene was/has been injured but Asiasi ??....I must have missed that one.

Interesting. I’m sure this affected game management.

He probably texted Brian Flores about it with Flores saying you got the wrong guy.

Didn't see it mentioned yet. How about that Peanut Tillman punch by Mitchell!

Nobody else on the roster can do this to a defense. He won with speed deep & route running near the goal line. It’d benefit the other skill position players if he was out on the field week 1 IMO.

What an ingenius way to list WRs...why didn't I think of that. The fact that Parker got 0 receptions from Mac last season automatically makes him the number 4 guy on our depth chart. Makes sense.

Technically, Parker would be 5 on that list because Wilkerson had a few targets/catches last year.

Still preseason but I think we may have found our long awaited legit drafted WR.

At least I hope we did!

I didn’t see the sloppy, disorganized incompetent offense that can’t get out of its own way the Greg Bedard and crew promised me.

I missed the game. Did they use the new scheme?

According to Lazar, no

Yes, it did. Not sure why BB is miffed, though. He wanted his QB to get some work, the Jints wanted their DL to get some work.

I guess this is grounds for GDT banning....there will only be farting rainbows allowed

Butt hurt much?

He got a little nicked up during the week and left practice...nothing serious.

You got kicked out for that?

According to Lazar, no

Not exactly:

With Hoyer under center, the Patriots ran more of their traditional offense with a power/gap running scheme and a passing game that looked very similar to the offense last season.

However, rookie quarterback Bailey Zappe ran more of New England's under-center install that did feature the inside and outside zone concepts that the Patriots were drilling in training camp. As was the case in practice, the Pats struggled by averaging 2.9 yards per rush.

Yeah as @Ashley said...he got nicked up a little.

I hated the refereeing, the "roughing the passer" call on Wieland especially. What the heck else is he supposed to do?

He made a textbook tackle, not even a whiff of impropriety.

Terrence Mitchell gives me good vibes. I think we have a scrappy player with him who will hold his own. He’s no Jackson but could be a nice fill in for this year.

Some Carl Davis love:

Yup. Davis' issues have never been about his play. He's not a three-down DL, but for early down run stopping, he's been good for three seasons now. The problem is he's only been able to stay on the field for a handful of games at a time, and he got hurt again last night. Counting on him to play a near-full season might be a fool's errand.

What new scheme?
