Game Day Thread Official Game Day Thread- Pats @ Texans

[sb1]

Judon

Time to retire the “Patriots should be 3-1 or 4-0” talk. Bad teams consistently make losing plays like this team does.

Exactly. Any losing team can say that.

That’s why they’re losing teams.

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

Jones is lucky he wasn’t picked off on two passes on the last drive, the drop by Meyers was inexcusable.

The defense has been terrible, I don’t think they have even made them punt yet.

lucky to be down by only 6

 

[Foxypats]

Hopefully the second half is better but these fumbles have to stop. Every game we have had a fumble and out D can't get a TO to save their life.

 

[nowayback]

Really dont care how Pats do this season, just want to see Mac improve, but that was hard to watch . Was Brady the reason we didnt fumble?

 

[PP2]

You're down 4 out of 5 starting OL... that's bad.

But after the first half Mac has only had 4 incompletions and hasn't been hit or sacked at all!!! That's great!!!

You're losing anyway because the defense is giving up almost 11 yards per pass and have failed to stop all 3 fourth-down conversion attempts.

Actually two hits on him. My mistake.

 

[DaBruinz]

What I don't get is why Uche is not getting more snaps..

The offense had 3 drives in the 1st half. 3. The defense played their SB against Tampa Bay last week and they clearly couldn’t get themselves focused and motivated for this game.

The funny thing about the Brady/BB argument is we're perfectly fine at QB. If we had Brady I'm not sure how much different the team would look

Probably nothing. Brady could not save this team.

Exactly. Dumbing this season down to "Belichick without Brady" is dumb and lazy. This is Belichick with bad roster management

 

[Mack Herron]

Am I to understand that Bill let Brady go so he could sign a bunch of free agents and give us this?

 

[farn]

OL isn’t the issue. Mac isn’t the issue. Everything else has gotta be cleaned up (and it would help to see Judon get a few more of those plays next half).

RBs. You guys NEED to stop putting the ball on the ground. It’s costing the team.

 

[sb1]

Gilmore ain’t walking through that door now. Sigh…

 

[Patriot_fan989]

JC gets way too many PI's to get paid like Gilmore.

 

[gtfanboy]

Difference between good and bad teams is sometimes very small. That difference is usually turnovers, mistakes, discipline, etc.

This is a bad team. Keeping Mac safe and a chance to grow is the best we can hope for this year.

 

[Hammer of Thor]

Probably nothing. Brady could not save this team.

Brady would have as much of an impact as he did in the WC game against Tennessee. As good as Brady is and for how much better he is than Mac right now, the QB is not the problem here.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

the QB is not the problem…his teammates are, however

 

[50-yard-line]

Came in late...went through it.

This team can't get out of its own way. Should have 21 points (drop/fumble/missedXP) and have 9.

And they play the most vanilla defense ever.

 

[BobDigital]

We need to lean on Mac, Asking him to carry us against the Bucs was too much. It's time for Mac to put one on his back and steal one. Let's go Mac! Time to learn to have a game truly put on your shoulders and punch some points in.

 

[Mack Herron]

Brady would have as much of an impact as he did in the WC game against Tennessee. As good as Brady is and for how much better he is than Mac right now, the QB is not the problem here.

And the draft picks and free agents are not the solution.

 

[ensoul]

Have to assume Harris is done for the day.
