Game Day Thread 2025 Patriots Game Day Thread Week 1 Patriots v Raiders

[Ross12]

OL getting beat on a bit now.

 

[TomPatriot]

I love the full mute button on the GDT.

 

[Grogan14]

Does this team look any better than last year??
Not yet that is for sure
Could be worse, we could be the dolphins

 

[realtime]

The Raiders aren’t paying anyone $60M at DB.

They are also paying Meyers over 10x what we are paying Boutte.

 

[ViperGTS]

Maye catching his own pass now.

Somewhere Gisele is punching a wall.

 

[Thunderhead]

Maye has been one of the Patriots worst players. Cant win in the NFL like that.

 

[DaBruinz]

run blocking for the most part has sucked today

Whenever the Pats have tried to run, the Raiders have been through the A Gap almost immediately to stuff it..

 

[JayNM]

Dang man

If they score, im sorry, i dont see us winning this one

 

[Toofy]

Tbh this offense looks even more crappy than Mac Jones years. The oline is actually decent . Probably the best in last 5 years.

 

[festy1986]

Thank the heavens the Patriots schedule is mega weak. Otherwise it would be a long year for some of you.

 

[denverpatsfan]

Need to check out of these obvious run plays when the Raiders stack the box. Can Maye do that? Or not yet?

 

[Mack Herron]

Offense is impotent. Need a TO

 

[UGAPatsfan]

Maye has been ass BUT…I don’t think this was Josh Mcdaniels’ finest work either.

Some good, but some trash too

 

[FCB02062]

Geno smith makes a great pass in the face of a blitz....Maye throws a bad pick

 

[PP2]

Graham (Raiders DC) is now blitzing Maye on every 3rd down and it is working.

 

[Lagaffe_07]

I think you can, by his mastering the offense more securely, getting footwork squared away so you are in a position to throw when an opportunity arises. Part of the reason Brady was so great was that he worked relentlessly on such stuff, kind of automating good habits so he had the headspace to think clearly and quickly, undistracted by thinking about his feet or trying to remember what Josh said last week.

He could be simply incapable of figuring it out, but it's too early to conclude that.

Brady was clutch the moment he stepped on the field it was apparent. Agree to disagree. You can’t learn clutchness. Maye is ****ting himself when the moment gets bigger.

 

[stelfans]

Hope this is not it for Maye but he looks broken.

 

[DaBruinz]

The Oline has sucked in terms of Run-blocking anywhere but the left side. The Pass-blocking has been mediocre.

 

[ErniesPinkStripes]

At least they still have a chance, could be worse I suppose, but so much to work on

And my Drake enthusiasm has taken a hit.. Hoping he can learn from this game

You’re explaining someone’s desire…which can’t be coached.
