Official Game Day Thread- Week 16 Jets @Patriots

[patfanken]

Jimmy is damn good. No reason not to trust putting him in and saving Tom. I don't think Bill does it just yet though.

I'd like to see JG come in for the 2nd half time drive.

Only gripe has been our run defense. Tackles need to stuff the run. Wished floyd got more targets

Also want to see a few more throws in Floyd's direction. Not much time to see if/where he fits into the offense before the playoffs

What I hate about the MVP talk is that Brady shouldn't be eligible because he missed the first four games but Rodgers should be even if he sucked for the first 8 games??

Missing HT a bit there.

 

[heavyde050]

he is playing great. i dont get all the hate. you flip brady and rodgers right now with rodgers missing 4 games and brady carrying a bad packer team. You wont vote for rodgers for mvp .

For me, I get that Rodgers is great but he was not playing well earlier in the year and he never holds himself accountable. It is always the other players. And he seems to do no wrong. That is why he reminds me of Peyton. He is an amazing QB but he should not win MVP this year. A couple games ago his team won without him throwing a TD. When that happens to Brady and the Pats everyone talks about how bad Brady played.

Dan Fouts crappy quote of the day: After a completion.

"Tom Brady is off target and threw that ball low and when the ball is that low it's tough to intercept"

Fouts said something? I have it on mute.

BUT THE EYEEEEEEE TESTTTTTT

Maybe it's just me, but this game feels like a real "f*** you" game against the NYJ. Guys are a little chippy, Edelman ****-talking the Jets coaches on the sidelines, running up the score - it's clear how BB and his team feel about this franchise.

He wasn't **** talking for no reason. The coach put a shoulder into him and then blocked him from walking back onto the field. And then another coach/non-dressed player shoved him in the back. Buy of course no replay nor was it pointed out by these ****ing morons calling the game. Dan Fouts is horrendous. It's embarrassing. Hackenburger....really Dan they just put his ****ing name on the screen.

It could be better, however, Hightower and Brown are out. Still think they can make necessary adjustments in 2nd half.

 

[TB_Helmet]

Just poking my head in the game thread. Great game huh! Of course, I'm sure some of you have turned the TV off in disgust for one dumb reason or another.

 

[nabwong]

Is Brisset active?

No

 

[DaBruinz]

He is not.

Thanks. I missed the inactives list earlier..

Ryan Hannable ? @RyanHannable

By shutting out the Jets in the first half, the Patriots haven't allowed a TD in 110:29 of actual game time. Last TD was 3Q vs. Ravens.

 

[TBR]

they are considering him. i think pats fans are just not considering anyone else.
EDIT: And another fantastic running TD by Aaron Rodgers just now.

He doesn't deserve it. He was awful early in the year. Lost at home to the Colts, blown out by the Titans, among some other bad game even earlier in the year.

Brady carries his team despite injuries. Rodgers struggles then maybe figures it out depending on the difficulty of his opponent.

If he struggles, the media narrative is "he has no help!".

Cyrus Jones out practicing punt returns with Ryan Allen. Wouldn't be surprised if he gets a crack in the second half.

"Now excuse me, I have to go back to the hospital for some more morphine."

Not strong enough.

He needs 10 shots of vodka and a heroin chaser

 

[Patsfanin Philly]

Rulebook says otherwise.
Rule 12, Section 2, Article 15.
Rule says it doesnt apply in the Tackle box. Tackle box only goes 3 yards beyond the LOS per Rule 3, section 34.

Sure looked like he was 3 yards beyond the LOS.

You may be right. I thought he was within the tackle box which is why they did not call it.....

They have passed the eye test recently though.

To each his own. He has 32 TDs and 7 INTs. Even when he has played bad. The treatment about how every talks about brady when rodgers doesnt doesnt take away from what he is doing with a bad team. I mean , brady is kinda getting he manning treatment right now which i actually hate. Imagine same stats as brady if mannign had missed 4 games. Would you be happy to give him MVP ? One of the reasons i dont care for this award. it has no meaning across different teams.
