Patriots Pregame Thread Patriots Chargers Sunday @ 8pm - pregame thread

[Schmo]

The games have been great so far. Hopefully the pats can make it boring tonight... in a good way.

He’s either a troll or he is incredibly unintelligent; like, should not be allowed to vote unintelligent. Either way, not sure why you guys don’t have him on ignore.

I find him funny. No one has fallen on his tuchis as hard over and over again. It’s fascinating entertainment in a way.

They were talking about this on sports talk shows. The first ten minutes of Chargers football usually tells you what team you are getting. If they come out missing throws/making dumb decisions, they usually lose.

We're really going to miss Hollins today, and if we move on. Hollins was built for games like this, so super unfortunate thing because we're so young and inexperienced at WR. Not to mention small. I like Boutte, but he's at best going to be limited in full speed with a potential re-injury of his hammy. Someone is going to have to step up huge. It may actually have to be Chism - who is the most physical and best contested catch guy left - of Pop, KW, Webb

Chism will step up.

So the opposite of the Bills and Bears, who basically don’t start playing football until the fourth quarter?

Excited for a victory tonight.

LAC
PIT
BUF
LAR

That'd be my preferred path to ring 7.

My wife has been on my case about really unimportant things. Pats are undefeated when this happens.

You forgot the “s” in happens…

 

[Thelonious]

Hmmm. There's as much garbage flying around in the air in Philly as there is garbage on their sidewalks. Third-world charm right here in America.

Agreed. I don’t have anyone on ignore. Let the ignorants speak…let the rest of us laugh

Ready for Cancun, I see…

 

[DaBruinz]

Kinda figured they'd elevate a DT with Tonga out. Webb being elevated says that Boutte is likely to be inactive.


It's going to be interesting to see if Wilson gets the start or if they stick with Brown.
We should see a strong dose of Stevenson and Henderson as well as Diggs, Henry and probably Chism.

OMG…. This wait is killing me…. I need to do something for the next two hours to keep me from going crazy !!

What a difference two years (to the day) makes:

Defense needs to show the **** up today. Can't have a repeat of that second half vs Buffalo, the last time they faced a real QB. If they can't get pressure on Herbert w their flotsam and jetsam oline, the Pats don't deserve to win. I have a feeling it's going to come down to Maye. The Pats D isn't good enough to hold SD to 10, 13 points - a game you can win with a bad QB performance. LFG

Was she away 3 weeks this year?

Boutte is playing. Not on the inactives. Neither are Landry or Spillane. All three are a go.

Drake Maye is the best player playing this weekend, so you have nothing to worry about
