This is where we gather to follow things on Game Day. Obviously, emotions tend to be high so if anyone gets a little crazy, the use of the “Mute” button is encouraged on anyone who may be annoying to you to control your experience and to allow the moderators to also enjoy the game.
At the same time, please take a deep breath before over-reacting for the sake of making this a pleasant experience for everyone.
Lastly, we have never allowed promoting the use of any illegal streaming. This is illegal and will be enforced by copyright holders, which puts this site at risk. DO NOT POST ANY LINKS to those platforms.
This also means, there absolutely cannot be any mention these platforms, spaces, special characters, etc. - so do not get creative in trying to work around this request.
If you do you will have your account suspended.
I do not have the means to deal with legal issues and have already been contacted previously, so this absolutely needs to be adhered to. If you see any illegal links, please report them so a mod can remove them.
Years later, and I'm not suggesting it's why we lost, I wonder about that call. I just don't get why. Gost had played pretty well to that point in his young career.
I am comfortable not winning this game today. I really want them to win as I always do but it's really best case scenario for a loss. All the other division teams lost today and this one is out of the conference. If we had to drop one this would be a good one.
Don't forget, with the rules changes limiting padded practices and such, BB now treats the first couple games as extended exhibition season...wouldn't be surprised to see longer looks at lesser known players, and protective decisions for some of the stars for this and the next few games.
This defense sucks.
The offense sucks.
They need to hire a real DC.
Why can't we get receivers that can go deep.
Blount stinks.
This O-line stinks.
They should have never traded Mankins.
They need to bring back Charlie Weis.

I believe it was protecting him more than a lack of faith. If he misses that kick and the Pats lose, by 3 or less, he's forever the scapegoat, and his NE career is probably done.
Don't think I've ever seen this happen with guys down the depth chart with higher guys available as is the inference - guys rising like Butler - yes. Where he treats it like preseason is complexity of the gameplan - especially on defense.
Conservative, lot more zone - that's a much more likely scenario.
