He has a chance to be a folk hero in front of the home crowd.

Thank the football gods those historically incorrect LOSER uniforms are consigned to the nostalgia set. Unfortunately, we have this nonsense forced on us tomorrow:

Given a palette of red, white and blue, they chose...gray.
I saw some of these at the pro shop, they look even worse in person.

Are you kidding me with those unis?

With rham out is certainly going to be alot of T. Henderson runs to the outside. Assuming jones plays he Will provide some runs between the tackles.

If there's too much telegraphing in that way any defense can shut it down. The RB (whichever is in there) must be able to run any play in the playbook. Including some Henderson interior runs and Jennings some outside runs. Every NFL team is good enough to stop something if they know what's coming.

This is the kind of game I expect will be a one score game into the 4th quarter. I half way want to see that happen. I want to see how this team does under the pressure of being in a close game deep into the 4th quarter.

The other half wants me to be dead wrong and this game be over by the 3rd quarter and we spend the entire 4th quarter killing the clock.

I like option 2 better.

Other than the shade of the uniform, though, it's definitely an improvement over the status quo.

They are not flexing the Pats/Bucs game?

I’ve liked Jennings since he has been here, he runs hard runs N and S and gets tough yards.
I expect good things from him.

Who was the guy they activated when everyone was hurt and he played 1 game. Was a FB/HB hybrid kinda guy. Gonna say around 2013 or so. I think his name began with an E. I was at that game. I’ll look it up but won’t post it until someone gets it

They look bland and unremarkable. Unfortunately people are buying them, which probably means we'll see them again.

Good lord no. It's cynically contrived marketing B.S. If the team loses tomorrow wearing that stuff, it'll be even more forgettable.

Where would you like it flexed? The primetime slots didn't justify a switch. The 4:25pm slot for East Coasters is the no man's land time slot. I'm on the West Coast and hate 1pm games.

I don't see any guy that began with an 'E", but it's Joey Iosefa in 2015.

They are wearing these only once this year and that’s the Thursday night game against the Jets.

Those are for the TNF game against the Jets. It looks like they are wearing the blue silver combo tomorrow.

I stand corrected. I saw a report that said they're wearing them tomorrow, but the Patriots website confirms just once vs. Jete. Which still will be too much.

Root for the Bills to win. We can then beat the Bills, and both teams have an extra loss. Then we only have to hope that the Colts lose a few.

Root against the Chiefs except for week 12 when they play the Colts.

We control our own AFCE destiny if we beat the Bills in week 15 and don’t lose to any teams we should beat.

Dude looks like a family boss from NY. He looks like he is deciding who will be sleeping with the fish She is looking at him like..oh **** the storm is coming.

I thought she looked like she’s thinking “don’t take it out on me. Please don’t take it out on me!”

 

[n1997y]

My gambler's logic suggests we're due for a stinker. . I see these bad teams and think they're going to break out -- I had the Browns scoring 19 last week ... after watching them, wtf was I thinking? I'm scared we're going to have one of those multi-turnover games. Please talk me off the ledge.

JUMP! JUMP!

That’ll get you off the ledge…
