Stidham is on thin ice. Admitted to not being ready to go in.

He didn’t say that..

He said “I wasn’t really expecting it at the time , I was ready for it they said get in so that’s what I did”

And now he's back to missing XPs. Of all the NFL kickers, except Vinatieri, he's missed the most XPs this year. These are not difficult kicks for an NFL kicker, particularly for an elite one like him.

The ENTIRE season so far???? You mean 3 games? Do you know the Buffalo Bills are tied for the best record in the NFL after 3 games?

Jamie Collins was the clear Player of the Game today! He was a beast!

We have to give Karras a shout out today. His snaps have vastly improved, and his name was not mentioned once today, I believe.

I thought he allowed a sack today?

Overall he's doing well.

Are we the 85 bears?
Defense has allowed 3 points in 3 games. 0 TDs in 3 games. Team has allowed 5.7 when you include 2 non defense TDs allowed.
Beats allowed 21 defensive (22 total) TDs in 16 games. 12.4 ppg, (11.9 d only)

Bears allowed 258 ypg, 82 rushing yards at 3.7 per carry. 3.38 takeaways and 4 sacks.

We are 199 ypg, 37 rushing at 2.3 per carry, 2 takeaways and 4.3 sacks.

Also we have allowed 5 of 39 third down conversions (13%).

Obviously it’s only 3 games and not a full season but we are so far playing better than the best defense ever.

What do you want from me? Am I not allowed to criticize the kicker? The guy is an elite kicker and has shown to be inconsistent at times. XPs are a gimme in the NFL. These are basically 33 yard field goals, which should be money for him. I'm not panicking, just concerned.

He might have a point. After all, so far this year Gost has missed more XP than the Dolphins kicker has made....

Wow. Pretty amazing for a few reasons.

First, I'm surprised the Patriots didn't have the most wins in the 2000s.

Second, it shows how dominant those Colts teams were with Peyton during the regular season. Only one title during that stretch has to be tough to stomach as a fan.

Finally, having two amazing decades of record breaking wins will likely never be matched. That's an all time, unbreakable record, type of stretch.

Never thought I'd ever say this but I'll have what Andy's having. Only don't make it a double, I gotta drive tomorrow

Absolutely! He deserves criticism for those misses. But to point that he leads the league after 3 games is more than laughable. Calm down and breathe for crying out loud. Further, you DO understand he has a new holder right? Who knows the reason?

What was the Patriots record after 3 games last year?

At this time last year the Patriots were 1-2.

Maybe the whole “so far this year” argument should be seen in its context.

My roommate during the late 90s was a Bucs fan. I remember watching several of their games. That defense was sick. Matching or exceeding anything that D did is pretty impressive.

No idea.. we'll see when the OL gets graded and the tally is given tomorrow.

The Pats 5-11 season in 2000 anchors them down. When you include the playoffs, Colts had 124 wins in the 2000s and the Pats had 126. Pats are up to 132 in the 2010s including the playoffs.

Yeah, you could be a Bucs fan. Criticize away.

Didn’t catch the game today but congratulations to Jarrett Stidham for throwing his first NFL touchdown today.

Let's give Newhouse some love... Solid game

I think you are remembering him being mentioned for a penalty.
