PostGame Thread OFFICIAL POST GAME THREAD: Patriots beat the JETE 25-22

[Gumby]

Missed the game (not shown in DEU) & DST time shift over here threw me off

So my question: Was OL the same or did we have an 8th flavor?

Drake's dime to Thornton was possibly his best pass as an NFL QB. Sadly Thornton then did Thornton things.

Yeah but - he does have 4 receptions this year…..

All the signs of disaster not withstanding...
Was this the most exciting finish since last years win vsBUF? (which was also the last home win - exactly 1 year ago)

Your absolutely correct! I say Drake playes next week?

No he hasn't won anything. We have 2 wins and JB is that guy... again just bullshittin.. Its just funny that ****ty JB got the wins, he did look good for the most part today.

 

[raduray]

Fair enough but sometimes they go too far, others they don't go far enough. I mean what if he cleared up by halftime. Sometimes you just have some "cobwebs". I mean it is football.

Cobwebs, a euphemism for concussion.

 

[jdlboot14]

No idea why the WR's were so bad today.
JB did what he does best, come in as a backup and play mediocre enough to win.

If Brissett balls out, do you think they would still go back to Maye without question?

I agree and said the same in my post. AVP’s play calling was better, the OL looked solid when Maye was in there, the defense did their jobs for the most part despite missing pieces, and everyone stayed engaged and playing hard despite Maye getting pulled by the league and the blatantly terrible officiating. Good showing by Mayo’s crew this week. Something to build on. Only 2 games behind in wild card standings.

I thought we looked good in man coverage. The run defense was decent, though clearly not as dominant as it usually is. I thought it was a well-called defense gameplan.

I'm starting to come around to AVP. I think he's a better playcaller, even if he's not innovative enough for my tastes, than I thought. Lowe is so much better than I ever gave him credit for. When he's in, the line looks so much better.

And I've said this for the last few years, but Henry is a great TE in this league. I know we were spoiled by Gronk, but Henry makes the catches we need him to.

Thornton was a 2nd round pick just because he was fast….brutal

 

[Gumby]

NFL news reporting on Drake concussion said:

1. he played only 2 plays after the hit (a handoff to RS & an incomplete).
2. that he was pulled for concussion protocol at COACHES DECISION

Everyone posting here seems to be saying different things????

JB showed better movement than he has when he was the starter. Maybe the mentoring goes both ways.

The Halloween games are always crazy.

Nothing better than our slapstick Badnews Pats beating the arrogant Jets and causing them to swirl down the toilet.

But our Run Game is so bad. Maye is clearly the best part of the run game.
And I'm not worried about a "Concussion problem" with him, because he was sliding and got a dirty back of the head shot.

Red jacket incoming.

 

[dliverey44]

But, but, but - there was no hit to the head per the refs.

Refs have been terrible this year. There have been 4 or 5 missed facemasks that changed the trajectory of the game or at least made an impact. The missed facemask in the Rams vs Vikings was probably the worst I have ever seen because it happened right in front of a ref.

 

[Hammer of Thor]

Christian Fauria on the postgame right now: “Patriots should never apologize for winning in the NFL. It’s not their fault the Jets suck.”

Cobwebs, a euphemism for concussion.

Not true, having played sports you understand what's what. Meaning, if within a short while you start feeling normal again with no signs of anything..then yeah you just got your bell rung a bit. If you show any signs of anything else, then you are done. I mean Edeldude got rocked din 49, probably concussed but they let him play.

Maye gets the win.
