What’s his numbers vs Zone?

Good.

He hasn’t thrown an interception vs zone all year

Worst. Hype. Video. Ever.

(and when I was 15 I thought it was cool)

Best ever

Not sure what’s worse. Playing in Denver like it’s on top of a mountain or playing in KC where it’s the loudest stadium in the country.

I feel like a Super Bowl game...damn...we hv to win...

It will be a pleasant surprise if we win. This team is just so inconsistent and questionable on the road. They haven't yet given much reason to believe they'll get it together away.

 

[sambam94]

fairly calm...just hope we see the Pats D like it was against the Chargers. I think both offenses will have success, probably comes down to who makes more mistakes.

It’s not that. Normally Brady can read the defense and change the play at the line but with KC being extremely loud, that’s hard to do. I’ve been to a game where thousands of people are screaming. You can’t hear anything. If we get off to a fast start, thats a different story. I’m sorry were so doom and gloom today but I’ve just seen this movie before and it doesn’t end well.

 

[Hammer of Thor]

Doesn’t this just motivate you?
They beat the Texans and became con-ten-ders. And we cheered them on!
Go Pats

OMFG........ I was 9 years old at the time and I had no memory of this video, thank God!

The Sullivans should have strong armed the Jacksons into producing a real hype video. “You bankrupted us, it’s the least you can do!”

Tom Brady is 24-4 in his career when the temperature is below 30 degrees, he talked about his comfort playing in the cold since college, the fact they practice in it all the time, and gave us this pearl
“My mind doesn’t slow down in the cold, but their bodies do”

The chiefs had everything to prove this regular season. They had a coming out party and had pedal to metal.
Patriots put up a methodical 11-5 year transisitioning to a run heavy scheme and keeping QB upright(3rd most rushes, no rushing QB)

The reality of this team is what we saw last week.. they are unleashed for another run

Who can/will elevate their game?

Indy and their fake crowd noise CD was extremely loud too. Brady and the Pats handled it well enough back then.

Just hoping refs don't decide the game. Just be consistent, if Gronk is getting mugged and you're not calling holds, don't call holds on us. Same with OL holds, DPI, etc. Let the boys play.

Feels like one or more special teams plays could swing this one. I’ll take a repeat of the 2001 AFCCG in Pitt.

 

[Redman443]

We need to know what to do before the ball is snapped. Need to communicate some way

This is a pissed off and laser focused team. It should be a different story.

If we do get off to a fast start, I’ll feel better. Can’t be loud when your team is losing and it’s frigid

 

[JMC00]

Nervous as heck as usual . I have this 2015 vibe when everyone thought we would win in denver

Hell are you talking about? almost no one thinks the Pats are winning tonight

Worst. Hype. Video. Ever.

(and when I was 15 I thought it was cool)

And a horrible result.

The first time we played them that year the Pats only reached midfield once, on a 75 yard Craig James TD run.

In the SB the Pats were the only team to score a point against them in the playoffs, not that it mattered.

The run up to that SB was fantastic though. The Pats won three road games to get there, including the Jets, Raiders and Fins.

 

[SBLIII]

We'll need to run the heck out of the football.

2015: Pats fav, DEN wins
2018: Chiefs fav, NE wins.

works for me.
