PostGame Thread 2025 OFFICIAL WEEK 18 POSTGAME THREAD: Patriots beat Dolphins 38-10

[The Gr8est]

The Giants did a Patriots. Went from 2nd overall to 5th. Almost certainly lost out on a big trade haul if Dante Moore declares.

So after three teams picked QBs 1-2-3 in 2024, one of them is back picking in the top 10 two years later.

Jags have receivers to counter the Bills pass D.

Its all on Lawrence.

If this game was in Buffalo I wouldn't really give the Jags more than a puncher's chance. But its in sunny Jacksonville. I don't see the Jags traveling north and really beating any of the cold weather teams. But I guess we will find out if/when we get there. But I absolutely like the Jags at home this week. I would imaging a Buffalo +0.5 - +1.5 line or maybe even a slight favorite as well, but I would lean Jax as a slight home favorite.

Looks like it’s forecasted to be pretty warm next weekend…

New England warm, or Southern California warm?

Diggs getting his 1000 yd incentive coming off a torn ACL...

chefs kiss

On a 20 degree day.
Long way to kick a rock.

Another great pick. They really did their homework on this draft class.

Says around 40…that’s not cold enough..

great point... makes life more harmonious when the players get the extra cash from incentives...

They were also the first of those teams to get to the playoffs.

Getting our injured players back was the key. Campbell, Williams and Boutte were back this week, and played well. Supposedly getting Spillane & Landry back for the playoffs which would be huge. Maybe we get Jared Wilson back as well. They’d be the healthiest they’ve been in quite some time.

Add in that the running game is looking really good, and can set up play action.

I like the Pats chances vs anyone in the AFC.

I expect we will see Wilson back, hopefully sooner rather than later.

I’m hoping we see Tonga back, too. They didn’t IR him so his injury must have seemed relatively short duration. But it’s continued to linger. So for now we don’t know. The good news is that Durden and Taylor and Eric Gregory seem to doing better than we could’ve expected.

Lesseon learned, read and do not just scan

All good bruh, I didn't see your question marks till later.
Sorry for the confusion.

 

[TinhWoodhead]

Early forecast is 51 and rain on Sunday, 42 on Saturday. Not that cold

are we playing on sat or sun

I'm not sure this worked out the way the Bills wanted it to or maybe they just didn't care. But from a numbers standpoint Jacksonville may be the worse team they could have drawn. Jacksonville has both a defense and an offense unlike Houston.

You have to take out Cook to give yourself the best shot at beating the Bills. Jacksonville has the 2nd best run defense in the league behind Denver. In four out of their five losses Cook ran for less than 100 yards. They are 3 and 4 when he rushes for less than 100. Two of those wins were shootouts with Baltimore and Cincy. The Bills are 8 and 1 when Cook rushes for over 100 yards.

Other interesting matchups in this game as well. Bills terrible run defense but have the best pass defense in the league etc..

If the Bills go one and done and we make it to the divisional round this season is a success for me

It's a week out, it can change.

Another great pick. They really did their homework on this draft class.

And people even here were ****ting on Vrabel for giving him a game ball after that Miami game. Guess he knew what he was doing eh?

 

[Uptown]

It's a week out, it can change.

Hopefully

I expect we will see Wilson back, hopefully sooner rather than later.

gotta say, i hope wilson is back soon, but kudos to ben brown, who rounding out into a very good swing OLman

 

[Pape]

are we playing on sat or sun

nothing is set yet... i just hope its not monday night... the wait would be horrible

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Says around 40…that’s not cold enough..

If the high is in the low 40’s , a night game would definitely be in the 30s or 20s if we end up in primetime

 

[Patriot Missile]

Wildcard - patriots beat chargers
Division - patriots beat Jags ( I expect jags to beat bills )

Afc championship - pats beat Texans in Foxborough

Super bowl - Patriots beat Bears

We’ll beat the Bears, 100-3.

My gosh that song was bad.
