Official Game Day Thread- Week 3 Pats @ Lions

[iapatsfan]

The Patriots defense is as soft as soft can get. The only hope is that an offense screws up, be cause they have one guy out of 11 today that can win a one on one matchup.

 

[PatsWSB47]

Great head coaching there

 

[ErniesPinkStripes]

Alright O, wake the f up. You are capable of much better than we've seen this year.

 

[Jangles]

I can't tell you how many games I've watched over the recent years now where the opposing team has a really long opening drive that ultimately only ends up with a field goal, and the Patriots go on to win handily.

Let's all breathe.

What happened to the Pats that used to come out and roll over people?

 

[PatsFan2]

Zero pass rush

I wish we didn't read for Clayborn in FA he's not better than Flowers.

 

[UFGatorPat]

Patricia bailing out the Pats with that FG

The D is just horrendous at every level

The secondary isn’t going to be perfect with all day to throw, so in that regard no I don’t think every level is horrible. Secondary will be fine. Good game for JCJ and Crossen to maybe get some experience

 

[Kdo5]

They should have gone for it. How could they not be extremely confident in getting a fourth and short? The defense is getting dominated in the trenches.

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

The Jets were up by 20 at this point of the game.

Like a hot knife through butter.

No pass rush, inability to stop a run for less than 6 yards.

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

Stafford is absolutely going to annihilate this team. He's actually a legit quarterback unlike Bortles and Watson coming off of major injury.

Haha, you would think. But Stafford has made a career out of some bonehead plays.

 

[Betterthanmost]

Ok, now lets see Monaco Brady and his bunch of misfits.

 

[ashley]

Surprised they didn't go for it, they were dominating us at the line of scrimmage that drive

There is no way in hell this #Patriots front was stopping them on 4th down. Patricia just giving up 4 points there.

The NFL.

On this thread?

Nice thought though

 

[Redman443]

Stafford is going to sling it all night and look like 2004 Peyton Manning

I am sure you hope that Troll

 

[patfanken]

Nothing in that Detroit drive to feel good about except that in ended in a FG, and that was almost by accident.

The big question that will need to be answered is if things will improve as the game progresses.

 

[UFGatorPat]

LB play not bad so far. Front 4 is worst in the league likely

 

[catent]

The DL (and front-7 in general) looks woefully soft. Getting manhandled.

May be time to look for a replacement for Brendan Daley.

Not afraid of Pats offense.

 

[pheenix11]

No sack Patricia

And I’m not talking about QB pressure
