Impressed by Cam

[yukon cornelius]

going to have to put some wrinkles in when teams start stacking the box......there were a few plays he really should have checked out of today, hopefully that comes with familiarity with the offense as things progress

We need some weapons still. Harry and one of the TE’s needs to develop over the course of this season.

 

[LJRomanoff]

He played well. Let's pump the breaks on the Grogan comparisons though. Please

Brakes.

 

[denverpatsfan]

Brakes.

Ha! Fcking auto correct

 

[Uptown]

 

[Hcelizondo]

He was great. I’m just concerned if he can survive the season injury free while getting tackled so much.

My impression is that he just wanted to prove a point yesterday... and he surely did

 

[Double TE]

Fun to watch

 

[WaterfallJumper]

Wish I'd thought of this, but I can't take credit for the work.

 

[rochrist]

He was fantastic. Really worried he’ll get injured at some point. There’s not way it’s sustainable the whole season with the way he played today.

He wasn't actually hit very hard most of the time.

 

[rochrist]

Most rushing yards by a Pats QB. Didn't realize he broke Cassel's record. Thought it would have been Grogan's.

6 yards short of Grogan. That is, the last time anyone had more, Grogan had 81 yards.

I'm curious to see what gameplan the patriots use against seattle next week. Its possible they come out with something totally different. But it seems like the last 3 years, this is how Bill wants to play. Run-run-run, use play action. and Play tough defense.

its what won us the superbowl in 2018. and was going to be our MO last year if injuries didnt decimate the OL and rape accusations derail our WR acquisition.

If we can win that game it will be a huge wakeup call to the rest of the league.

Reminder: Cam Newton has never lost a game where Brady started for the other team.

[PP2]

The good thing for me is that he seems to be taking everything much more seriously now and is playing like he has a chip on his shoulder.

I guess that's what happens when you're unemployed for three months- a wake up call for how fast you can fall from grace in the NFL.

Thems the brakes

My impression is he just wanted to win.

 

[hypotherion]

Thought this was an impressive answer by Cam

 

[Pape]

6 yards short of Grogan. That is, the last time anyone had more, Grogan had 81 yards.

Grogans top rushing game was 103 yards, 10/18/76 vs jete ... whopping 14.71 ypc

 

[One-If-By-Sea]

I get the impression that Cam is an alpha male who has bought into the Patriots' way. Call that humility, intelligence or looking for a new contract, but it feels like he will get better every week. With a lot of first year players including Cam, this team may just slowly build to a pinnacle come playoff time.

Cam came here after Tom and had even less time to prepare, no preseason, beat Stidham, beat Hoyer, beat the Dolphins. I'm extremely impressed.
