I still remember a time when Rob Gronkowski was an incredible blocker.

I take back what I said the other night. The Patriots have not reopened the playbook. He was just redirecting guys who had lined up wrong.

Greg A. Bedard @GregABedard · 2h2 hours ago
Brady was running the plays as called, pretty much.

Patriots play on the road again this week at Buffalo? Tough start with 4 of 6 on the road.

He's got a point about Gronk. His blocking is certainly not 100%.

 

[50-yard-line]

And the Pats were 4-5 on the road last year. This is a young team and it shows when they get out of Gillette. Maybe they'll take their energy and anger with them to Buffalo - and if so, they will win handily over a pretty good Buffalo team.

Gronk was responsible for the sack of Brady on Sunday night. He just totally missed the block. Another time he screwed up the snap count (or couldn't hear Brady) and was standing still after the ball was snapped.

The kid had a few nice catches...but at times it appeared he passed on his ADD meds that night. In the Seattle game last night, it looked as if half the Seahawks offense skipped their meds.

A biproduct of the new drug testing rules that began Oct 1?? Or just a coincidence?? (Written in jest.......but if ya think about it......hmmmmm)

That was an odd play. I believe the whole right side (including Gronk) just stood there, while the left side reacted to the snap on time.

I would like them to limit Gronk in the Blocking game and use the RB's instead. I wouldn't want him to hurt himself blocking...here's hoping for a healthy Gronk in 2014!

Does our crowd know to shut up during O drives? Nahhh what a stupid question that was.

Vollmer did the same thing on the same play so it's more likely they just screwed up the snap count.

Bedard:

A lot about attitude

Run game was boom or bust

Brady was just "ok" - mentally great, but missed on throws

 

[Rob0729]

"The good news it wasn't their best game"


"11 running plays of 1 yard or less"

Bedard wasn't impressed with Brady's performance. Felt mentally he was there, but physically some bad passes. The pass to LaFell was low and away.

 

[Deus Irae]

Offensive line was outstanding, starting with Ryan Wendell ("incredible performance")

 

[Rob0729]

Solder had a nice bounce back. The "weak point" on the line was Connolly (and he said the weak point was in quotations, not me).

 

[Deus Irae]

Stork showed a lot of smarts

Both tackles were very good

Connolly had a little bit of a rough game, and was weak link (But meant by comparison, not in isolation)

 

[Deus Irae]

Defensively played ok, but the Bengals missed a lot of plays that were there.

Dalton started out looking like big game Dalton, but looked better later

 

[Rob0729]

Felt McDaniels called an excellent game. Kept the Bengals off balanced. Exploited the seams.

 

[Deus Irae]

Personal note: Bedard is really selling Brady's game short, IMO, basically putting the blame on Brady for catches that should have been made by Gronk, and for that first play to LaFell, where Brady threw LaFell into a reception on the ground rather than setting him up for a hit.

 

[Deus Irae]

Allowed 7 total QB pressures in this game (18%), where they'd been averaging 15 (about 30%)

 

[Rob0729]

Credits Wendell for solidifying the o-line (who would have thought going into the season?)

 

[Deus Irae]

Cannon's not in a good place right now
