Game Day Thread Official Game Day Thread - Week 13 Pats @ Texans

With the D struggling and the offense continuing to be a dumpster fire this game may already be over

They never shouldve released him. Brady, Bill, and krafts son wanted to keep him. Kraft dropped the ball

Jonathan Kraft is most likely on the same page as his dad.

13-14 plays on that drive, you can’t expect your ***** defense to carry you though 16 games.
The offense needs to get their act together!

Would be nice to have a TE.

Houston guys wide open all down the field.

The Pats can’t get anyone open.

Houston's tight ends are pretty bad.

I really thought the offense would be fine once Wynn came back, but at this point I dunno what to think. Nothing about this offense scares anyone, there's nothing we really do well

Give up points on the road?

Nice of you to add so much value

This defense will struggle against well coached offenses that know how to attack certain players in space (primarily Hightower).

Why Collins is on the edge and HT is playing in space over the middle is beyond me.

This game started well and had a good vibe to it, but a turnover and the offense’s inability to finish the opening drive turned things really quick.

This team has never felt quite right to me, even when they were winning big early; hope they can change that.

Potentially the worst offense Belichick has ever fielded in New England.

I do wonder if there’s some master plan to not show our true defense against mobile qbs until postseason, then surprise

To be fair it is quite hard to have a game plan for a qb that can break the pocket and run or buy time. It just breaks down the coverage.

BOB is doing a good job, dialing up plays that are isolating our LB corps- deploying TE's and RB's in open space to mess up coverage.

Our defense looks unlike it's usual self.. That flu has really made the rounds.

Wonder if people here still think the Bills aren’t a threat for the division this year.

Is it possible the offense scores even less than last week? That would be incredible.

NYG 35
NYJ 33
CLE 27
BAL 20
PHI 17
DAL 13
HOU ?

Brady's missed TD, then INT set the tone..

They've run that before, we definitely saw that on film & 87 is Watson's fav RZ target.

Tough beat but good execution

Execution, what that?

supafly said:

So, where is someone like Philip Dorsett when Brady can’t find anyone? I mean, he’s targeting two rookies because neither Sanu or Dorsett are better options. And it’s not just this game.

Both Sanu and Dorsett need to step up and quickly.

Click to expand...

Remember when Dorsett was a HOFer after the first three games and how the Patriots needed to extend him during the season because there'd be a bidding war this off season? I'm sure I could dig up that thread if need be. Lol

Game is on the offense...I think Brady knows he's bad.

Brady is fine. We just don't have the firepower and the protection needed this year.

50-3.
That’s what this team deserves.
Maybe Bob will stop being stubborn and bring some talent.
This group has overachieved with the group they had on offense.

Not going to happen this year....what he have now is what we have rest of way...Harry and Sanu will play better....run game starting to get it going.....but they sure look ugly tonight

2 missed tackles from the best tackling team in the league - So you think a week of so many sick people ISN'T having a effect?

Click to expand...

I'm sure it's having some effect but, "we lost because we were sick" just..........I'd rather not go there.

Game isn't over just yet, but not a fan of the direction it's heading.

Next year will be much different, just like when there are glaring and obvious weaknesses, but I don’t think anything can be done this season.
