Seeing Nix play pretty well should be a wake up call for Kraft. Probably not.

Future HoFer’s record this year :
vs under .500 7-1
over .500 1-5

Par for the course. Media & fan darling, for some reason.
Herbert has been hurt. Give him some slack.
 
A free kick FG!


I don't understand what is up with that. To me, makes it easier to do because you don't have any guys jumping up to block a kick that you need to drive a bit lower.

Seems like you would do that all the time?


Edit nevermind, saw the rule. Makes sense now.

Jim Harbaugh is a damn good coach. Kraft should've been in on him but no, he had to go with his stupid man-crush. Imagine how different things would be.
 
I'm taking back my thumbs up. Their defense totally turned it around in the second half. No way we put 30 on them.

Even then, the Pats would give up 31. Herbert is impressive.
 
Watching the Chargers on TNF. We're doomed.
 
So, it looks like the Chargers can clinch a wildcard berth by beating the Patriots, then could rest people the following week vs. Raiders. The Chargers game will be Mayo's Super Bowl.
 
Watching Herbert's post game show, he says 'we'll get some rest and then back to business, we have another great opponent next Saturday'. I just laughed, he doesn't really think that does he ? Great guy, It's the polite thing to say, but it's been a long time since anyone called us great

When did Bo Nix play well? I feel bad for Broncos fans, Herbert and Mahomes vs Nix is going to be a huge mismatch for years.

Nix had 30 easy passes (meaning guy was open by 3 yards or more) and still missed 4 of those including a TD long pass he underthrew by 10 yards. He continually took check downs when guys were open down field.

He had 9 plays where he saw pressure and completed 2 passes, 1 of those was a 3rd down dump off that led to a punt. The other completion he created his own pressure by running into it and then almost threw a pick on a pass that was 3rd down and short of the first anyways. Basically, if you got any pressure and he couldn't run he couldn't complete a meaningful ball.

Otherwise, he had all day to throw and still took the dump off. Not to mention the 6 screen passes and multiple swing passes. One swing pass went for 56 yards. He had a couple batted balls as well.

Bo Nix made zero throws you would say an NFL caliber QB has to make to show he's a top 15 NFL starting QB.

If it was past 5 yards in the air, he was more likely to short hop it or under throw or throw behind the receiver.

Bo Nix was not good last night.
If the Pats had Nix as the future QB I'd give up on the team as there would be no hope. He's not good.

Herbert knew what he was doing. After hearing that, Mayo will be overconfident.

Lol, the last game that the patriots might have a chance against if the coaching staff is competent....lol patriots are ****ed.

Winning a SB like this would have been the most BB thing to do. Almost had the chance in SB51…

Interesting. Payton loves him. Offensive mind. Assuming he develops. Only year 1 here. They were 1 bad special teams play away from beating the Chiefs. Pats are 3 seasons away from being remotely competitive with those type of teams.

i saw the protection graph showing the Pats at the bottom ... and Denver at the top. Certainly nothing special last night. It does look like he might be Fool's Good.
