And so ENDS the illustrious career of Aaron Rodgers. It ends not with a Bang but with a Whimper.

That was one of the worst Pick 6s I've seen in a minute. I'm sure that's not how Rodgers will want to be remembered.

Or, is he back next year?

We shall see…

People are acting like Maye has been getting strip sacked every game. Maye has been very good with his pocket awareness and getting rid of the ball when he has to. Yesterday was the aberration.

His pocket awareness has been inconsistent imo. Not the worst, but closer to the worst than the best. He makes a lot of late plays but could do better recognizing when a play is over. He hates to pull it down and take a sack.

Disagree.

I think you run at that nonstop and then go play action.

8 men in the box with Rankins and Togai. No.

The Patriots are going to find the soft spots in their pass defense and Maye has the ability to get the ball there.

McDaniels does not stick to the run against a great run defense.

Yeah, right, CJ Stroud is every bit within 1,000 miles of Drake Maye. Great analysis, bush.
Click to expand...

Maye is much better than Stroud.

That’s not what i’m concerned with. It’s that Texans defense.

Brady was bedder than Eli, but that Giants defense ..

I don’t think the Pats will win, but i’ll be rooting for you.
 
Early line before the game ends is Pats favored by 2 over the Texans. Basically, rating the teams as dead even with home field now worth 2 points

Last years Texans defense is nothing like this years.

Like the difference between the 85 Bears and the Chargers.

I’ll agree with that, their defense is better than last year’s (it was good last year as well), but so is the Pat’s defense, and Maye is way better than last year. Everything is way better for the Pat’s than last year, by a lot. 4 wins to 14 wins (15 if you include the playoffs).

I am worried about the Texans, that’s why I was rooting for the Steelers. It was close for a while due to the Steelers defense (mostly pass rush). Then the Texan’s defense really took over.

There is no soft spots in their pass defense.

And they’re not a run defense.

They’re literally the #1 pass defense.

I think you two are measuring different things.

He doesn't have a great feel for the edge rush. That is bad pocket awareness.

He is excellent at maneuvering around the pocket. That is great pocket awareness.
 
They still won’t release the gametimes for next week, ****ing assholes
 
People can say a lot about him, but it was completely obvious how respected he was by the players
 
GreenCow said:
No you posted dumb stats like yards per game lol.

Just wait until next week and i’ll bump this post to show you.
Click to expand...

LOL! Here are the stats:

Passing TDs allowed:
Chargers: 16
Texans: 20

INTs
Chargers: 19
Texans: 19

Opposing QBs passer rating:

Chargers: 75.0
Texans: 76.2

Sacks:
Chargers: 45
Texans: 47

Opposing QBs completion percentage:

Chargers: 60.8
Texans 59.3

Opposing QBs YPA
Chargers: 6.6
Texans 6.5


And don’t forget that the Chargers rested most of their starters in week 18.
 
I'm thinking a low scoring game for this next one. Maye will be ready to make enough clutch throws to win it.
