Lets get ready to hear "if they had nix ..."

It started before the game..

I’ve decided…I’d much rather play the Rams. I’ve had enough of elite defenses thanks.

Stafford will crap the bed today

I prefer the Seahawks because I think Vrabel can rattle Darnold.

Barringer has become a liability. Why does this keep happening where a really solid punter becomes awful suddenly?

Did you just happen to notice the weather???

Unknown (to him) stadium with either worst or 2d worst conditions out of 284 games this year…..sounds like a brilliant overreaction

ummm one of the dumbest tweets I have ever seen. Ya no ****

1. Stiddy faded bigtime after the adrenaline wore off.

2. Denvers loss is squarely on Payton. He totally screwed up not taking the 3 points and got high on his play sheet. He of all people should have known that field conditions would eventually worsen making it harder to score. He really had no run game too forcing Denver to put all their money on Stiddy. Harvey would just quit mid run and give himself up. I feared that a tie game could go on to infinity.

3. Vrabel brought up Lenny Taylor and he tipped the Denver FG that went left.

4. Mack Hollins led all NE WRs with 51 yards.

5. It was 60 degrees in Santa Clara, CA today. Maye clearly struggles to pass in the cold.

6. The first long Denver pass to Mims was blown Safety pickup and not on Gonzo. Romo or somebody said that NE was in Zone. After the Pats adjusted on D it was over for Stiddy.

7. Maye rushed for 6.5 ypc @ 65 yards and a TD.

8. McDaniels called 38 rushes. Some runs went into a wall and even backwards, but football is a game with a finite amount of time. On those 38 runs if you used the whole 40 second play clock you would burn 25 minutes off the game clock.

9. The Pats didnt make any mistakes while Denver fumbled and had an INT.

10. NE won time of possession 33 minutes to 27 minutes for Denver.

On #5 - any concerns on future playoff games for Drake? You're right in that he struggles in the cold/elements. 9 1/4 hands are not Brady. Kid throws a beautiful ball in good conditions, makes you wonder if this is an impediment late season/playoff games on the go forward.

Who do I root for Rams or Seahawks?

Either will be tough.

Seahawks: Great D, I believe our D can stop Darnold.

Rams: Great O, I think our O can score on their D and our D can limit their O.

So I guess Rams.

 

[Actual Pats Fan]

Congratulations to team and everyone here who has endured 6 yrs ...hahaha. Unreal.

There's a lot of us geezers here who endured many, many more than six years, and the pain of knowing that a lot of it was avoidable (Pats made Hugh Millen their first $1million quarterback in team history, at the very same time the best quarterback of the 90's, the one they let go, Doug Flutie, was setting rushing and passing records and winning MVP's and championships north of the border for less than $400K/year).

Any word on Spillane??

 

[Patsman]

Jesus he’s been god awful in the playoffs. Rookie or not, awful.

Left Guard next year?

Lets get ready to hear "if they had nix ..."

If they Had Nix, they remain scoreless. The only score was on the only strength Stid has over Nix.

My thoughts exactly.. Plus Stafford will get every call with the old man sympathy

I just OD'd on your post.

I am the luckiest NFL fan ever... thought the first run was magic, never expected a redux in such a short time...
Mr. Kraft after a silly mistake and then did the right thing with hiring Mike Vrabel..
Vrabel personifies everything I like about the NFL.. tough, disciplined and always defers to the players.
Think about this season 9-0 on the road.. how many times has that happened...
I was confident, but what a great feeling for a very long time fan...

I just OD'd on your post.

Sorry?

And as a FYI, inside that trunk is “Denver Broncos 2025 AFC Champions” T-shirts.

The Broncos are working with the USPS to get them to this year’s favored third world country.
