Game Day Thread Official Game Day Thread- Pats @ Jets

[denverpatsfan]

Lot's of bad football today. Let's hope the Jete continues to be worse than New England. Wtf special teams?

When Brady first started before he became a stud the one massive advantage he had over Bledsoe was that he seemed to sense pressure in the pocket. You always felt comfortable when he dropped back.

Mac clearly doesn’t sense it. That fumble was not a blindside situation. The guy was facing his body side and was breathing down his neck

Not awful tbh, esp. when you consider the line play.

Especially considering we're on the road against a 5-2 division rival.

Still there is room for improvement for Mac. He hasn't had a good day

 

[PWRxWLF]

it’s not dead when he catches it??

Yeah, I don’t get it. It’s not like he can catch it and make a play with the ball. That’s a weird rule I’d honestly never seen. You see guys catch the ball and whistle is immediately blown dead. Idk.

 

[DaBruinz]

I always thought that when there is an ILLEGAL TOUCH, as soon as the player is "down" (ie knee, BACK, etc) that's where the ball stays.

 

[Brick27]

Hard to believe this Jete team found a way to get to 5-2

 

[Froob]

Mitchell carried it into the end zone. Should’ve dropped it in field of play. Not like Jetes were going to do anything with it.

Is that really the rule? He downed it

 

[A.C Vegas]

No, in kickoffs you down the ball by stopping it, but if your momentum carries the ball into the EZ it's a TB

But what momentum he was on the ground and got up you can not defy gravity

 

[Ross12]

I want to hear Sterratore explain that one.

His explanation would be "uhhh yeahh so umm <something something something> the refs made the right call"

Not awful tbh, esp. when you consider the line play.

One INT he threw was a tipped ball, but one he threw got called back on penalty.

So, not awful, but pretty meh.

 

[A Defiant Goose]

I want to hear Sterratore explain that one.

I think the rules are set up for that exact reason. The spot is where the punting team downed it or a touch back, whatever is "better". Like a risk/reward thing. Idk. I think it's stupid

Way better considering Zappe is a rookie

 

[TomPatriot]

Bad play by Wise.

 

[Nunchucks]

Miles Bryant should be targeted every pass play

 

[ashley]

Of course on Myles Bryant

 

[upstater1]

Marcus Jones > Myles Bryant

Don't roll backwards then

 

[ahmed]

I still don't understand that punt... the guy was down when his knee hit the turf, was he not?

Edit: not only that but the kicking team can't possess the ball so it doesn't matter where he moves

Player has to stop with ball outside end zone. Play is not over before a full stop which is why you see players catch ball and throw it back before they step into end zone.

 

[lancerman]

If he lose this game it’s because of our stupid offense not sticking the dagger in when they had chances

 

[stcjones]

There’s got to be some cornerback on the scrapheap that’s better than Miles Bryant
