Umm no 100% he’s goneIf Bill is still here it’s Patricia.
Yeah - no chance he is OC next year.Umm no 100% he’s gone
Mac's on a rookie contract. Matt stops getting paid by the Lions next season.If Dirty Mac is getting a 3rd year why wouldn't Fat Matt get another chance? It's gonna be fun!!
If Kraft wants BB to cook the dinner he cant dictate to Chef B what pots and pans to use.If Bill is still here it’s Patricia.
What is a modern offense?I don't want BOB. I want us to start moving to a modern offense. It's not 2010 anymore.
BB is old skool and you dont throw your boys under the bus.I absolutely think Bill intends to keep Patricia as OC if he can have it his way.
Aggressive offenses that play mostly to stretch the field and use complex routes to scheme receivers open and attack the middle and downfield. We still are a screen, short pass offense that prefers to dink and dunk to diminishing returns. Brady was a precision master and could do that plus we had perfect talent for that like Edelman/Welker.What is a modern offense?
Because teams with great player like Tyreek and Waddle score a lot of points. Other teams that use Shanahan's offense don't score so many points.
You need players
I don't see the difference, honestly.Aggressive offenses that play mostly to stretch the field and use complex routes to scheme receivers open and attack the middle and downfield. We still are a screen, short pass offense that prefers to dink and dunk to diminishing returns. Brady was a precision master and could do that plus we had perfect talent for that like Edelman/Welker.
But it’s very apparent that when we’ve been aggressively attacking downfield and mid field we look so much better and get in a rhythm.
It’s not working just trying to establish the run and throw screens. Even without the talent we play better going away from that
But we don't do that. Our screens go nowhere and gain minimal yardage and because we aren't making the defense cover more of the field they aren't getting tired.I don't see the difference, honestly.
You throw body blows with those screens, you tire out the defense, you prevent turnovers, you rack up YAC.
The Bills, when their QB is healthy, use the Daboll offense which I believe is very close to ours. They throw short passes and suck in the defense.
Both Bills TDs went over the top yesterday. They really have our old offense in Buffalo. But then again, they also have Stefon Diggs.
But that's Patricia and bad coordination. Not offensive philosophy.But we don't do that. Our screens go nowhere and gain minimal yardage and because we aren't making the defense cover more of the field they aren't getting tired.
Only if Bill wants him gone.Umm no 100% he’s gone
Kraft can insist that Bill get rid of the pan with a hole in it, thoughIf Kraft wants BB to cook the dinner he cant dictate to Chef B what pots and pans to use.
BB can go Gordon Ramsey on Kraft and tell him to shove his kitchen up his arse.Kraft can insist that Bill get rid of the pan with a hole in it, though
Kraft will sign the PO. Just order the EFF up a new pan, now. Pick it, Bill. Just not the old one.
Not so sure that "league average" is something to which the Patriots, or any serious franchise, should aspire...just saying...In his 4 seasons as HC, his offense finished 16th, 13th, 11th, and 21st in the league in points scored. The only bad year was this year. Hopkins was suspended 8 games and Murray was out for 6; something broke this season but it’s more than just those 2 guys. But on the whole his offense has been league average. Certainly better than ours.
