Game Day Thread 2023 OFFICIAL Week 13 Game Thread: NE (2-9) vs LAC (4-7)

once again, Bill Belichick special teams are awful. Glad he spent tons of $s on them. that punt was ripe for a 15 to 25-yard return. but the Patriots special teams cannot block and there was a tackler bearing down on the returner as he caught the ball. Bill Belichick is not a special teams genius, he is a special team's failure

 

[Scotty]

Now that's a ST play !

 

[Thelonious]

who turns it over fewer times is the only difference

In a situation like this, I think you're absolutely right. Reminds me of the Hippocratic injunction: "First, do no harm."

 

[I Augustus]

BB will sign ekeler off season

And draft a WR in second round.

 

[upstater1]

That was the most pathetic punt return I've ever seen

Marcus J wouldve run that back for a TD

 

[Since1960]

First time Patriots haven't scored in the first half in back-to-back weeks since 1993. Setting records

Ahh, the good old days - driving out to the first baaah in Amesbury with the games blacked out.

I'm sure it'll be in the gamebook after the game, or at least it should be.

Ian, How's this thread doing compared to other games in terms of number of posts and posters participating? Seems light.

 

[Jim Beankie]

Pats are toast. Even the sidelined reporting has been outsourced to India.

Duuuuuudddeee...

 

[Ian]

Herbert 1 for his last six passes, and 0 for his last 5.

 

[Kdo5]

Please put in Malik, give us something ANYTHING

It’s the rain.

Agreed… And Slater has been toast for a few years now, but yet BB chose to bring him back again… Waste of a roster spot

Pahkah!

 

[Ian]

There we go

 

[FCB02062]

let Zappe throw the ****ing ball!!! someone was actually open!!!

 

[TomPatriot]

Fever!

 

[upstater1]

The OL run blocks so well that Ezekiel can make the wrong cut, right into the back of one of his guys, stand around for a few seconds, and still find a hole that allows him to pick up 6.

 

[Mack Herron]

DOWNFIELD PASS

 

[Kdo5]

Zappe!!!

 

[n6249c]

Zeke to Juju!
