Game Day Thread Official Game Day Thread- Jets @ Pats

[ashley]

Good to see Godchaux active after missing all three practices this week. Glad to see Shaq active as well...should help the o-line.....surprised by Rham being inactive...JJ needs to step up today. Joejuan Williams also active, he needs to play better than he did against Houston.

 

[dtbrks]

Great day for a game
I can’t see the pats being 0-5 at home.
go pats!

 

[One-If-By-Sea]

Let's hope our TEs continue to expand in their usage and results.

 

[Foxypats]

Let's hope the stupid penalties and fumbles stop. The team needs to stop shooting themselves !

 

[Vatahala]

What's wrong with Hightower?

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Disappointing to see rham out, he made some nice playys last week, but did screw up on a blitz pickup. Hope to see jj involved in the 3rd down role a bit

I think LG has the biggest impact on how LT plays. For the LG position experience and communication is more important than talent. I will not be surprised if less talented Ferentz at LG and more talented Onwenu at RT show the biggest improvement in OLine play.

Ferentz is not an NFL player. He is disciplined and knows what to do - but thats all. He is overpowered immediately every single snap. That crucial penalty that took TD away was on him just not being able to hold his block for half a second. Run blocking is not much better.

Herron had a very bad game again so from the left Mac and RBs were unprotected basically the whole game.
Pats were playing with 2 NFL OL until Onwenu came in at RT. Andrews and Karras carried the whole line. Monster game by both.
And then people expect McD should open up the playbook. Or Jonnu to have a breakout game on deeper routes that would kill Mac.

Onwenu solidified RT so i hope they finally keep him there until Brown is ready.

Good news Mason is active. They really need to solidify this unit if they want to have any kind of progress on offence and use weapons.
Unfortunatelly WRs are no help blocking outside Harry and Henry is still far from his blocking form as well.

Big statement win please. Get ahead early and dominate.

The best possible statement we could make in this game is "c'mon, we aren't THAT bad".

 

[Love The Drake]

Im starting to think Wade isn't hurt and that comment about practice is the reason he's never activated.
I was excited about the trade well I guess the Wade Autos I honest to God bought will rot with the Joejuan Williams, Kneal Harry and Chad Jackson ones.

I just finally had the heart to donate my Chad Jackson and Laurence Maroney and Brandon Merriweather and Andy Kayzemoyer Jerseys to Goodwill.

The #Patriots healthy scratch rookie RB Rhamondre Stevenson, and I got nothing. One of those decisions you have to chalk up to the coaching staff knowing something we don’t about the player or game plan.

I don't understand this either. Why can't we have Rham and JJ active at the same time ?

 

[StockingAnarchyNumber12]

Im tired of "moral victories". The media and fans think we suck.

The question is.. what will our Pats do about it? Win this game.

 

[Jim Beankie]

Jakobi TD before XMas, please.

Until Stevenson learns (and then executes) pass protections/blocking his status will depend on game plan and injuries . esp with iffy OL.

 

[ashley]

Jakobi TD before XMas, please.

That would be great...rooting for him to get his TD, other than that one drop, he has been our most reliable receiver.

 

[Mack Herron]

Over/under on FG attempts?

 

[StockingAnarchyNumber12]

Big statement win please. Get ahead early and dominate.

Going to need it.

A loss here would be embarrasing and would tell me something is very wrong with this team.

 

[Dingleberry]

What's wrong with Hightower?

Really could be a question for the entire season. From the last time we saw him making plays:

A year off + 2 years older = Retirement looming at the end of this season

 

[jah]

Jakobi TD before XMas, please.

That might be one of the funnier subplots of the season. He just keeps finding ways into the endzone without the credit for a receiving TD. Look for him to get one on the ground next.

 

[Kontradiction]

Great. So we get a hobbled Harris and Bolden in the red zone where Stevenson can at least be effective.

So he's a healthy scratch?
