OFFICIAL GAMEDAY THREAD: Texans @ Pats - 2016 Week 3

[stcjones]

Brissett has been solid. No confidence in the kid?

He's doing a great job for being thrown in there cold turkey in his rook year!!! He's raw and needs several years in system to get things flowing right and hopefully become top tier QB.....but overall he's doing great

 

[PatsFanInVa]

Hey guys... just a reminder for everyone slinging the word "PATHETIC" around:

The Pats are up 10-0 against a playoff caliber team at halftime with their third string rookie QB.

What does it take to please you people??

With you on that one Ross. A W at all is gravy at this point. I am thrilled thus far w/defense, don't know about you guys.

 

[PittPatriot]

Taking the knee... I know it is the smart thing to do, but I am all about getting but I am all about getting "goosebumps."

 

[Fencer]

Amendola with the huge conversion.

The saviors of the young QBs so far have been Bennett and Amendola in some order, even ahead of Edelman (the first few receptions of the season notwithstanding) and of course ahead of Gronk.

 

[AtomicDawg]

6 more quarters until........

 

[Gronk]

It's absolutely insane.

I mean...

Yea Belichick way over thought that. Might be a reason why we lose this game.

Come on guys. We're ****ting on this 10-0 lead?

Even in a Gameday Thread...I'm shocked.

 

[Pats2000]

Damn I hate that decision. The game isn't over.

No the game isn't over, no need to put JB into a 2 minutes drill and make him make quick/potentially bad decisions.

 

[Silver Blue&Red]

BB is, by far, the most, bestest, awesomest, goodest, sweetest coach to ever walk on the tainted, faux field in history. DAMN!!!!!. I really made a good choice when my family chose me to be a Pats fan.

 

[patfanken]

Half Time thoughts

1. The results were as good as we could expect.

2. Jacoby is doing a great job, Josh is doing even a better one

3. Jacoby is NOT going to make anyone forget TB or even JG. But if he came out and did better with his throws I bet the league would closed this year up.

4. Losing Gronk again is about the worst thing about today's game so far.

5. The defense has been playing GREAT, but we've seen this firxt half before. Now we need to see a 2nd half. Ideally if they can hold Texans to 10-14 points we will win this game

6. Don't judge LGB from on his first half Judge hjim on the 2nd. BTW- I wouldn't hate it if they threw a pass to him. I know the Texans would expect it

 

[PatriotsPimp136]

I am not surprised that bill got conservative before the first half. Even when brady was the qb lately he has a habit of getting conservative before the half.

 

[TB12TheGoat]

6 more quarters until........

pray for the browns

 

[DaBruinz]

I wish they would do more QB runs with Brissett.

Not with out a backup QB I dont

 

[Fencer]

3rd down shotgun run

come on josh...

If Josh did something surprising with every call, they'd stop being surprising.

 

[Actual Pats Fan]

Pats need a strong effort coming up in 2nd half. D must remain sharp and ready to take advantage of mistakes; O must protect the ball and score again...special teams heads up

Long, much-needed break coming up, let's finish this

 

[bormio]

Shortened game. Field position. You are watching a master at work.

 

[Gronkowski123]

man if tom/jimmy were the QB we'd be up by 4 td's.

Unbelievable. If anything, this game should be full of lauds about how this team has performed. Instead people take ****s on the team. SMH

 

[luuked]

Dumb. At least try.

Hope for a DPI by throwing deep or something

If Houston gets back in this, that kneel could be a huge mistake.

I see some are already preparing the narratives just in case so they can immediately point once again to something in case we still lose this game. I can still remember how very similar people were ripping McD for not kneeling it against the Colts in 2014 when Brady threw that INT right before halftime.

We are playing with our third string QB, are 10:0 up and get the ball back after halftime. By trying to do something you risk the ball and the health of players. This was a fine decision, this is not the Brady offense that just kneels it out.

 

[goheels22002]

So, what do you think Brady and TJ Yates are drinking right now?

Yates went to Carolina, so I peg him as a Wild Turkey and Diet Coke man.

Brady? Probably Everclear and Grape Juice. You know, Michigan guy who struggles to keep track of time outs.

 

[mgcolby]

Wow I wonder how many of the OC's in hear crying about being conservative would be killing Josh and Bill if Jacoby throws a pick that leads to points. We are playing on a short week with a rookie 3rd string QB, with a 10 point lead at halftime against a 2-0 team.

Hey Bill you SUCK!!

Seriously.
