GOOD NEWS: Thornton had a "great week of practice"

[captain stone]

Thornton has pure blazing speed and length, that always has to be accounted for and respected.

Not with him it does.

 

[captain stone]

He did try

How?

 

[Wozzy]

Not with him it does.

He made a crucial catch and created YAC on the game winning drive the week prior. He looked productive with Maye. You can’t trade him, play him.

Lets not get carried away Wozzy he still can't beat press coverage.

Thornton is not a Stalworth off the LOS.

Did he play versus the Titans?

No.

 

[denverpatsfan]

No.

Healthy scratch? Amazing. Can't blame the QB anymore longer. Kid can play.

Anybody who have any hopes for Thornton becoming a player: I have the Brooklyn Bridge to sell ya.

I'm on the K Boutte and Javon Baker Train right now.

No.

Perhaps to protect him from injury before the trade deadline; and now that it's passed with no additions or subtractions, let's see whom this coaching staph really wants on the field with the rookie QB...

He’s gotten openly regularly, they couldn’t throw deep. Now they have Maye, he made plays and they wanted to trade him so he was on the bench. The trade deadline is gone, they should play him. Polk sucks.

Mike Gesicki is on pace for 666 yards and 4 TD's.

He had 244 yards total and 2 TD's last year in NE.

And that was with Bill O'Brien as OC. Strange how little he was utilized, especially when considering their prior relationship.

If Thornton has issues with press coverage, why not try and put him in motion? If the man covering him stays on him, by the time he turns upfield, the press man should not be an issue. Even if they change coverage Thornton is already on the move. Who knows, but this ******** staff has no imagination and they should all be familiar with motion. Just a thought.....

That is what you do to hide his weakness.

Miami with Hill for instance. There are lots of examples. But we are going to run the ball until they stop us, but they stopped us 4 games ago.

He doesn't, the Pats have had a pass problem. They can't block, so a deep ball vertical threat WR can't get utilized. They also had horrid QB play the entire time Thornton was here. With better blocking, Maye and actually playing Thrown he could possibly contribute, We saw that the game before last when he was active.

But we’re talkin about practice…

I see what u did there!

I never understood what happened with dude when he was here. It wasn't like he didn't know the system since it was BoB....that whole year was a cluster**** with BoB. Why they wouldn't let him bring in his own people is beyond ego...
