Campbell was unable to reach his guy. It looked like he was in position, and the play was supposed to go behind him.
That’s some serious Fatassian Lowe clutching and grabbing technique.
NFL OL have become so lazy with the legally blocking with outstretched arms stuff. Drive a shoulder into the MFer.
 
I'm going to disagree, they aren't biased just incompetent. That same crew covered the Eagles-Broncos game and were just as bad. Late in the game on a 4th down, an Eagles receiver got mugged and draped by a DB who never let go and it wasn't called. Would have put the Eagles deep in Den territory and win the game. So essentially it cost Philly the game. Go to 5:27 mark for video


You're in Philly, so I'm sure you know that the NFL front office keyed in on the Patriots in the 2017 Super Bowl. The front office puts the finger on the scales all the time. We know this for a fact. I strongly suspect they were told to watch Diggs and OPI PRIOR to the game.
 


Damn, that was a decent play design if they had anyone who could have executed it
Outside of maybe Campbell (maybe) that was a horrific showing by everyone assigned a block, that was an absolute disaster. Like a Jete level of ineptitude on display there. We can only hope when that clip comes up in the film room they all feel sick to their stomachs watching it

I forget which episode of Games With Names it was, but Edelman kinda went into depth about why the outstretched arms thing is important, something about it affording the blocker very efficient use of range. I'm wording it terribly but it was an interesting explanation. I'll try to find. Not saying it'll change your mind, your post just reminded me of it.
 
For folks complaining about Onwenu, it's worth noting that PFF has him ranked as a near top-decile guard - ranked 12th out of 106 guards overall and top-decile as a pass blocker. I understand that PFF is controversial, but their ranking of OL play is pretty objective and they look at every single snap, not just the bad ones. It's very easy to cherry-pick bad OL snaps and portray them as representative. And he's playing next to a center that was one of the worst pass-blocking centers last year and a right tackle that is on the downhill side of his career.

 
What was Jacoby Brissett stats yesterday?

AI bow and arrow Brissett threw for over 300yds yesterday. AI can do the impossible I guess.

For the best, the playoff numbers won't further the cause and really neither of us truly GAF lol
Yeah I’m not dying on the hill of Ryan f’ing Tannehill and a Titans team that half the time I barely remember is in the league. The Cardinals are like the only slightly more forgettable team

It's a wise man that picks his spots. Hope for you son
 
If the Pats keep on the trajectory we think they are on, get ready for their week 15 home game against Buffalo to be flexed to SNF or MNF. That game will be for the division.
