OFFICIAL: Patriots at Phins Game Thread

[PatsfanTN]

Maybe if you took your head out of your arse for half a second and read the OP, you'd know exactly what the problems are..

They are playing their 5th LT. They are playing their 3rd RT. They are on their 4th starting RB. Their Top DE is out. Their #2 DE is playing hurt. Their #2 LB is out.

Name me ONE other team that could look good when they are on their 5th LT..

I'm not saying you're wrong there, doesn't change the fact that they look like sh@t. Even with Vollmer the oline hasn't looked great. I disagree with you, no need to get sensitive.

There has never ever been a top level QB in NFL history that has done more with less than Brady, ever. If there is one then please name him. At the very least protect him so he has even a millisecond to go through his progression because he's that good that he only needs 1-2 seconds of protection to throw for 400+ with ease. They can't even give him that and that's before we even talk about his 'receivers' if you exclude Gronk.

 

[PatriotsPimp136]

I'm very confused why they're even playing him. They're clearly worried about him getting injured.

Sit everybody down. Put backups. Yiu don't care about the game.

 

[DaBruinz]

doesnt make sense. we always lose in denver, unless tebow is under center.
maybe the donkeys go one and done.

maybe the chargers beat them later today ( ya right )

You do realize that the Pats won in Denver before Tebow was even in College.

 

[JMC00]

Our secret secret weapon needs to come through in Cincy. Mallett time!

Nope.

Cincinnati's result means **** to the Patriots.

 

[patsinthesnow]

Most blatantly phoned in game of the BB/Brady era?

Deus, your thoughts as to why?

Is fear of the Jets & Steelers this bad?

 

[patsrulenfl]

I started a thread last week about Why should Belichick get a pass? Many posters said Belichick should always get a pass. These are the games why I ask these questions. Someone give me an answer as to why #1 seed is bad?

How much chance a team that loses 4 of 6 last games can win SB ? 0 I'd say.

Umm . . . the Ratbirds did it in 2012 and won the Super Bowl.

 

[Tony2046]

Yeah this team has looked awesome the last 2 months.

Dude. Stop. They have been dealing with injuries. We know what they look like when they're healthy.

This game isn't over by a long shot.

All they have done is 1. Get S Jax going and 2. Wear down the Phin D line.

Dolphins will lose this game in the 4th quarter.

Hope the halftime adjustment is to decide to try

I remember 2013.. Totally different team.. They weren't nearly as injured as we are currently..
Maybe you should use that brain you claim to have and stop and think for awhile instead of just running your mouth incessantly and nonsensically..

Weren't nearly as injured?

That 2013 team had Gronk, Wilfork, Mayo, Spikes, Vollmer and Tommy Kelly all on IR.

That's a bit worse than what we've got currently.

 

[Mustangs84]

Seriously with HFA on the FCKING table...I would have had all hands on Deck.....Pats are going to have a tough road anyways ....but going thru Denver....Very tough....especially with a team that has NOcharacter or leadership....

This whole no character or leadership agenda you're pushing is really pathetic...

Screw it i'll say it, and they won in Denver this year until the refs started some good ole home cooking

 

[stcjones]

Sit everybody down. Put backups. Yiu don't care about the game.

And why again don't they care about the magnitude of this game?!

 

[PatriotsPimp136]

The playcalling looks iffy too. They don't wanna play this game. No excuses with the defense. Secondary has given up plays

@MikeReiss
From @ESPNStatsInfo: With 5 pass attempts, it is the fewest Tom Brady has thrown in the 1st half of a start in his 16-year career.

But they will have to deal with those injuries in the playoffs too. An offense afraid of its oline isn't winning in the playoffs.

I guess he feels more confident going thru Denver than playing at Gillette....hey he's the football genius....not us

It's not about going to Denver or not going to Denver. It's that winning the game but losing more players is no better than a loss + no injuries.

 

[Soxcrates]

The fact that we lost to a Jets team getting rolled by the lowly Bills speaks volumes. BB has to change strategy here. Either play to win or don't and if not take your key guys out

 

[patfanken]

Some half time comments:

1. No targets to DA or Gronk - Brady's 4 attempts the fewest of his 16 year career so you are telling me you think the Pats are holding things back.

2. I think the Pats are fine with going into these playoffs with everyone else being the favorites. Losing of 4-6 or 3 of 6 is the perfect scenario for them, even though it might be painful for us, Lets see if they open up the offense or just keep on keeping on.

3. They are really using the clock well. Very fast first half

4. Jets are down in Buffalo....but only one score.

5. I want to see at least a couple of drives using the offense we are going to see in the playoffs and that includes throws to Gronk and DA. Time to see who we can trust on the OL.

after teh first couple of drives the D has slowed down the Dolphin run game. Once again they prove they are the best in the league on making in game adjustments.

I want to see more of Jackson off tackle. I'm tired of seeing every run going right but the gut.
