BOB 'Completely Reworking' Pats Offense

[TheRainMaker]

Yeah, let's not miss an opportunity to be pessimistic months before the season starts.

He’s overrated by most on the board.

Shame on them for being optimistic.

Shame on them for being optimistic.

Right, like the majority of the board last year was defending a DC becoming an OC overnight and Judge on offense. That thread aged well.

But this is what Bob Kraft is okay with, so I don't hear him in the media complaining if this doesn't go the way he thinks it will go.

 

[Triumph]

These things never go as planned.

There will be issues

 

[Triumph]

Shame on them for being optimistic.

Alabama fans are dancing on their roofs.

Yup, they were encouraging him to leave.

Thank God you got in early on the pessimism.

Thank God you got in early on the pessimism.

You're welcome.

"I think it's going to be a hybrid of a lot of different things," Breer said. "I think it's going to have some stuff that they did at Alabama that Mac is going to be comfortable with, because Mac was at Alabama. ... (O'Brien) coached Deshaun Watson in Houston, he coached Bryce Young the last couple years at Alabama, so he's got a lot of different ideas.​

​

"I think he's got really great perspective because he does have the bones of the Patriots offense, but he's gonna be able to do some things that I think are on the cutting edge of where the sport is going."​

​

That should be music to the ears of Patriots fans who watched the offense stagnate under Patricia and Jones in 2022. But this also means that Jones will have to learn a new playbook for the third time in three seasons, which is a lot of change for a young QB.​

​

The final product of O'Brien's offense should look a lot better, but how quickly Jones and his teammates pick it up will be a very interesting storyline this summer.​

My first thoughts: how are the trolls here going to spin this into being a bad thing? The obvious one is they're making it too complicated, it's gonna fail. Who knows, in a few months maybe they'll be calling for the return of MP and his simple offense. We've seen it all here, right?

On the contrary, many of us were calling out Matt Patricia and Joe Judge as incompetent throughout the season while the blind BB loyalists were brainlessly defending them. Now the season is over you want to change the story? Just admit that BB made a HUGE mistake and move on with your life.

Just a reminder, sipping koolaid and putting on blinders to BB’s mistakes doesn’t make you a “better fan” it just means you’re willing to tolerate more nonsense for the sake of your loyalty to a man who has delivered ZERO playoff wins for the Patriots without an elite QB, otherwise known as TB12.

 

[Bill Lee]

You're welcome.

Since you're being generous, please tell us of an NFL team whose decisions you like.

 

[AQPE]

Hopefully this system will include the OTs blocking and thus winning rather than “Wynning” which involved waving at the opponent, falling down, and pulling a Rodney Dangerfield “ow my …”

I wasn't asking about last season or changing any story, I was asking about how the pessimists/trolls would spin this upcoming season, and I got at least one answer: BOB sucks because various Alabama fans were glad to get rid of him. I wasn't asking about last season because I have stated BB made a huge mistake and I have moved on.

You seem to have a giant hard-on for the whole BB vs Brady debate, maybe you should take your own advice and move on with your life too? TB12 ain't coming through that door.

The changes I’m expecting to see
1. More RPOs
2. More play action
3. Better use of hot routes when opposing defenses blitz
4. More tempo
5. More cohesive line play

Bertram, Felger and the rest of the sports conspiracists are getting ready for this huge nontroversy/controversy..
Oh the f..ing horrors..

I think a large fraction of every fan base wants to replace their OC. It's the inverse of how QB2 is the best job in sports.

After quoting the article, did you really have to add this condescending, useless line to display your bona fides as a member in Good Standing in Little Billy's Joy Division?

You couldn't just post the link, and leave it at that?

I mean, if that was indeed your first thought, then you think about others possibly hurting Dear Leader's feelings too often.

Need ring 6 to come and tell us nothing is changing

No, I honestly want to know how this article would be shot down, and so far the fellowship of the miserable aren't really delivering.

The one line about BOB being unpopular with Alabama fans is a big meh in my book.

Captain, are you subliminally hoping that Bill listens to Iggy Pop’s The Idiot...?

 

[Rob0729]

Yup, they were encouraging him to leave.

I am not an Alabama fan, but other than Young, they have been devoid of a lot of talent at the offensive skill positions. And the two games Bama lost last year, the offense still scored over 30 points and never scored less than 30 points in a game last year.

Let’s face it. Bama fans hate O’Brien for really one game where the offense scored only 18 points in the national championships. Alabama was 6th in all of football in points scored in 2021 and 4th in 2022. Sure they were second in 2020 and first in 2021, but they were stacked those years at WR.
