3 kickers with bum legs. Nugent, Folk and Forbath.

What are the odds

And somehow that's not the worst position group we have.

The TE situation has been a killer. Absolutely killer.

Fine. I'll talk about 2013. I said for the a stretch 2013 was worse than this. I stand by that.

First off Vereen was out for 8 games. Blount was out for 8 games. Gronk was out for 9 games. Amendola played 12 games but in reality it was more like 10 as he left 2 of those 12 very quickly.

Brady did have Edelman and Amendola for much of the year but he often had to go to 2 rookie WRs with no TE and no 3rd down back.

This year at least he's had a 3rd down back pretty much all year and in luie of having Amendola he had Gordon, and Sanu. Not to mention Dorsett who was better than the 3rd options he had for WR at times in 2013. He has had better TE options this year than he did in 2013 during the games where Gronk was out. Watson/LaCosse > Hooman.

So I would argue during times in 2013 it was worst than this. Also I think you would agree they have faced easier competition this year so far overall than in 2013. That is something that needs to be taken into account.

As for 2006 if you want to bring up the personnel for that team go ahead.

You're not making an argument. You're just stating something, with nothing behind it. You're now talking about "a stretch", which was, at most, 4 games. This season has been happening since the aftermath of week 2.

We could use a Hightower strip sack about now....

I’d settle for a Gilmore pick 6

That may seems stupid but I think BB was sizing his kicker up. It is for later on in the game.

I agree. You don’t know what you’ve got. The 1 point doesn’t matter much right now (11 points vs 12 points down) so make him kick a longer one and see how he does.

unfortunately the result was: not good

It wasn’t much of an extra point tbh. Like a 37 yard extra point. He’s a scrub kicker, not surprising.

Absolutely. Instead of putting our best guys in a position to succeed, we're putting our worst in a position to fail.

Something has to change with the offensive play calling, even if it means firing a coach.

Huge drive. I don't mind what they did on that 2 pt conversion. The only thing I would have done differently is have them actually go for it. Let's go D!

I have a weird feeling we’re gonna win this game.

What an awful flag.

Turnover

Le Numéro Douze · Dec 1, 2019

Come on D...

pats_premi · Dec 1, 2019

Need a stop on this drive.

Sunday night embarrassment.

Looking like last years defense

With cincy and Miami looming, unlikely.

The offense has been putrid for 3 weeks now. From what I'm seeing tonight it doesn't seem to be improving which doesn't make Miami and Cincy the cakewalks they once appeared to be. With a potential loss tonight, Buffalo is a serious threat for the division.

If they’re not comfortable with their grip on the offense... yeah. That’s why you haven’t seen more of it this year.

So no chance for a come back.

Swaggy? Wtf

It was a good call. Jones was grabbing his jersey big time.

PATSYLICIOUS · Dec 1, 2019

I hope nobody picks up Folk before he's ready to come back

PatriotSpy · Dec 1, 2019

This D is overrated.
