PostGame Thread OFFICIAL POSTGAME THREAD: Patriots Beat Saints 25-19

[maust]

This just makes the call so much worse. "Blocking"??? You call the Saints player grabbing him and him pushing back, as is done on every NFL pass play, "blocking"? What an idiotic take on a bad call.

That BS is more of an insult to intelligence than the F'ing call was. smdh
Should've gone with a simple "Yeah I got nothing. The official that threw the flag saw PI, all I can tell you."

The Titans, next week's opponent, are getting curb stomped by Raiders...

Hold on, I'm processing your post, I'll get a response to you by Tuesday.

A win is a win, but I was pretty angry by a lot of things... the refs being number 1.
The constant runs up the middle being number 2.

But Maye is Amazing!!!!

You know my feeling PF2, I think our collective pass catching group is more than capable.
If I could add anything it would be DE.
Our outside rush has been bad the past few games, and that was front and centre today.
Rattler had way too much time.

How many plays were Barmore, Williams and Tonga out there together.

I was perplexed by the first defensive play call where they called for a DB blitz and Davis gave a half-hearted effort because he was picked up immediately.

I have been very impressed with how strong Boute’s hands are. Once he gets his hands on the ball its like a vise grip
Very clutch in key situations also

 

[sb1]

He’ll be fined but he shouldn’t be. They deserved to be roasted for that game. Pathetic.

Defense is suspect. Can't cover the middle and they are getting destroyed by check downs.

I believe that was by design, the Saints have a lot speed on the outside, so to defend the speed on the outside they were almost making them throw short and underneath.

After the last few years especially, can’t complain about winning a “ trap” game. *But*, we should’ve dropped 40 points on the Saints if we had stuck with the passing game as a first option rather than 3rd and long during the second half. When we got yardage on1st down runs we were held to 0 - 1 yard gains on 2nd down. Then when it started to get dicey on 1st down runs we lost 2 or gained 0 yards. The refs were beyond atrocious on 3 long passing plays including the 51 yard TD. The passing game in the first half was spectacular and I just don’t understand why we didn’t keep it going….

I get it that Josh wants a balanced offense, but by emphasizing the run he was playing into their strength.

Then by starting so many first downs in the 2nd half with a run he made it even easier for them.

I noticed early in the game that Williams wasn't out there much. Maybe due to his illness.

Agreed. Boute has improved every he’s been in the league and is a legitimate #2 WR on most teams.

It worked, they won. Patriots Defense was on the field the entire first half. Game was managed so TOP evened out in the end, and they gave up 6 points in the 2nd half. Overall, while it can be frustrating to look at, there are reasons for the 'madness'.

Is that real? If so HECK YEA

Ah didn’t even think it might be fake. I bet he at least thought it lol

ya, no way that's real.

 

[reflexblue]

I have Never seen any thing like this in 60 yrs of watching football if what i think the announcers said is true... Maye throws to pop, pop scores, the team is celebrating in the endzone, Then the ref throws a flag for OPI.... If true It could be interpreted as the pats scored and we need to negate it. I just think they're totally incompetent, and should be reprimanded, but that will never happen.

 

[festy1986]

What FA wide receiver did you want last year?

It's not who I want. It's who the Patriots wanted. They tried overpaying for a broken Godwin and still couldn't get him to sign.

 

[Uptown]

He’s certainly in the race…

The run d allowed 23 carries for 73 yards. Were you watching a different game?
