PostGame Thread 2024 OFFICIAL WEEK 3 PostGame Thread NE @ NYJ

[Mack Herron]

I share the frustration and desperation, but I fear no QB can perform behind this OL. They have young guys playing out of position, so I think things can get better. As difficult as it is to watch Brissett, I would not play Maye until they do.

The aftereffects of his roster decisions are still here. Going from a perennial dynasty to one of the least talented teams in football...yikes.

This is a very normal thing. Why are you surprised?

We went from winning the Super Bowl with a very old roster 5 years ago to everyone leaving and starting from scratch.

Why are people surprised?

Name one football team that hasn't gone through this. Just one.

 

[jdlboot14]

No excuses for Mayo being overmatched, not ready, not intense enough...
But they fell for the rookie staff trap - playing a weak team in week 1, believing their own hype, feeling comfortable.

Then, they faced a more talented and committed team - with a HOF QB who is finally returning to form - and got destroyed.
They better be ready to at least fight in SF. They won't win, but be more disciplined on D, and smarter on O.
That will tell us if they could still win some games this year, or if it's a bloodbath from here out, like 2-15

 

[Pape]

Too bad they can't play Tommy Devito, Zach Wilson, Trevor Siemian, Gardner Minshew, Jimmy and Mitch Trubisky every week huh?

**** yeah... i would love that

 

[Pape]

And the Jets just went full blitz mode during garbage time with no threat of run.

This absolutely did not happen.

 

[captain stone]

Maye's got some work to do here...

Get THE **** off the ****ING FIELD, you ****ing gee aw shucks ****ing hero-****ing-worshipping ****ing redneck.

 

[Thunderhead]

People on here were actually arguing the OL would be better than last year

 

[Boomer B]

I wonder if we will get another o-line analysis thread that shows how great they are doing…

 

[Stu Pidassle]

Yes. This is a bad team. Anyone who wasn’t viewing it with rose tinted glasses knew we were in for more of last year or worse since we have a new coach and new QB and are relying on a perennial back up

You are spot on expectations to start the year. A short week and injuries on the OL made it more difficult. This game feels worse because of the optimism generated by week 1. Let's see how everyone reacts to adversity. If the team still looks this bad as the season progresses that is when it is time to press the panic button.

Game was overnight here in the UK so I just watched it "as live" on DAZN (with the adverts removed). Having the adverts pulled means the game only takes 2 hours to watch, which was a relief. On the downside it meant almost no pauses for breath in the Rogers/No 8 ballwashing. It became insufferable pretty quickly and made an utterly abject Pat's performance even worse.

Genuinely think we currently looked nailed on for the 2nd pick as Carolina apart, there surely can't be a worse team in the NFL. There are parts of our team which don't even merit being on a practice squad and they are starting. Yes, we have injuries but we also have a ****ing diabolical roster which isn't being helped by (at times) a coaching staff who are struggling to come up with any answers.

Feels like the first 2 weeks were as good as it's going to get.

ps. maybe it's just me, but I was pissed they didn't call a TO at the end and take a couple of shots into the endzone. We just accepted defeat and walked off.

I've not heard "diabolical" used in this context but it's accurate.

 

[archstanton543]

Are the wagons circling around AVP yet or are we chalking it up to the o-line - in which case is it the new staff OR is it not the staff at all and did Eliot and Co. totally drop the ball not drafting a Tackle OR...was there no real talent available , so did he do the best he could....

My God, we suck don't we? What's for breakfast you ask?



LFG PATS!

AVP sucks and there was no real talent available so he did the best he could.

 

[The Gr8est]

Short week of prep and it showed. Injuries are now too much to overcome on both sides of the ball. I expect a better performance next week. They will lose again but will compete. Bury this game tape and move on.

Jets had a short week too.

 

[upstater1]

Jets had a short week too.

Short week at home

 

[archstanton543]

It's amazing how much better Robert Saleh is this year compared to last.

I don't know about better. But running on the field after a fumble recovery in a blowout is very on-brand for him

I never thought that I'd see the day that the NYFL refs would be calling penalties for perfectly legal hits that were considered too hard.

Tavai slamming the guy into the ground like that is illegal and has been for a while. I don't like it either but, as a wise man once said, it is what it is.

 

[archstanton543]

Short week at home

New Jersey is the closest team to ours. So it's not like a huge road trip (unlike like this week when they have to travel 3000 miles).

 

[archstanton543]

I was just asking you how being tight lipped wins games.

Don't say "We're going to run it" or "We're going to get the WR's more involved". Just say, as Bill did, "They have a good team over there" and move on to the next question.

 

[Grogan1980]

He's gone chuckles... live in the present.

Agree 100%, but what happened in 2020?
End of Brady Era, but also beginning of Eliot Wolf Era:

Eliot Wolf​

• New England Patriots (2020–2021)
  Consultant
• New England Patriots (2022–2023)
  Director of scouting
• New England Patriots (2024–present)
  Executive vice president of player personnel

 

[Real fan 02]

I don’t like seeing Brissett speaking at the podium after the game with a smile on his face. I would think he would be pissed about the team getting embarrassed on national TV. Also Maye in the locker room laughing while answering questions. A different culture being put in place here.

Yeah... I see your point. It definitely a different culture. I just think the game was over after the first offense snap. We played a former MVP, future HOF QB last night. Roger's has weapons at his disposal.. 2 great backs.. guys on the outside that get open.

 

[archstanton543]

Wozzy.. your a good poster you know very well Brissett isn't good.

Disagree. He's the biggest clown here. He even has the red nose and floppy shoes.

I know.. I just like to mess with wozzy.. I don't even think he believes his own post sometimes.. LOL
