Losing all world Gronk, studs Trent Williams and David Andrews hurt this team bad.

Dont forget Develin, big part of the running game last year

It would probably suck short term, but giving Cannon the next 4 weeks off might be the best for the long term

Once again the Pats completely wiffed in the draft on Harry.....completely useless....has shown zero ability to get any separation whatsoever.

Frankly getting separation off the line is something that’s a problem with harry. If you looked at his college highlights the guy had to make tough catches with people hanging around him.

Think 15 minute Bob will relent and let AB come back? After this disaster?

No. I think it would take them getting smoked against KC next week for him to consider that. They’d also have to work the cap to make it happen which is a shame because they had him in the first place and could have stood by him until/unless the NFL put him on the exempt list but alas they did not and here we are... with 22 points on the board in the last two games so far. I think that ship has sailed and we have what we have.

Well that’s a wrap. Good night.

I’m gonna flip over to Watchmen now. Sorry boys. I don’t want to die anymore

Normally we'd be talking about the Jets. Sad days.

**** **** ****

I remember after KC waxed us, the onto Cincinnati game, BB said they never gave up, well they're still fighting tonight so that's a good sign.

Brady’s INT turned the game.

He’s got to better.

For the sky-is-falling types I get it - there's not much to make us feel optimistic about the offense putting it together. But they can and very well may.

Meanwhile remember losing 2 of the final 4 games last season? There wasn't much that indicated we'd have the defensive turnaround we had in the super bowl.

At this point it doesn't matter where the Patriots finish. This team has no shot whatsoever to beat a legitimate playoff team as we're seeing tonight.

I wanted to see what the team looked like with a healthy offensive line. We played a good game as a line with pass protection and the offense did worse than ever. This is a problem with the receivers primarily and, to a lesser degree, Tom Brady's accuracy on a number of plays.

I haven't wanted Antonio Brown because I believe he'd ruin the team's dynamic. But honestly, that dynamic is looking so poor right now against good competition that I'm not sure Antonio Brown couldn't be the sparkplug we need. Things really have fallen apart to reach that level of desperation.

Collinswort keep it in your shorts, the guy is simply going around the corner on a guy that has the flu and was hooked to an IV drip 60 mins ago FFS.

It has gotten progressively worse. Kinda scary.

juny said:

It's a good record but this team is always judged by what they do in January. This offense isn't good enough to win games in January.

And that is exactly the problem. The record does not indicate how truly awful this offense is.

mosi said:

Cannon is just useless.

Yeah, let’s see how useless he is if he gets hurt and we have to roll Newhouse in at RT.

It is what it is boys. One of the worst offenses in football and a defense that can’t hsng with legitimate offenses.

Okay we lost and the team knows it too.

One thing for sure....Texans still acting like they’ve never been anywhere before
