PostGame Thread Official Post Game Thread- Pats beat the Chargers

[Joker]

Thanx Jim McBride.,...now go suck on a tailpipe you friggin' Red Sox/Globe hack

Harris>Michel

The difference is night and day. Harris has great initial burst, cutting ability, gets skinny and is physical.

Michel looks a step too slow but will be a fine backup though.

Yep, not giving up hope on Michel being a good RB2 for us, can't catch like Burkhead but to be able to give Damien a breather and still have a quality runner would be a big help. Didn't think he ran very well today but hopefully gets back up to speed soon, can't forget how good he looked in the Oakland game before the injury.

The only blimp today is that none of the teams we wanted to lose lost so we haven't gained any ground in terms of standings .

The Dolphins may not win another game this year. They play the Chiefs at home, the Patriots at home, @ the Raiders and @ the Bills. All four defenses are good and all four coaches can scheme to neutralize Tua.

Did you miss his catch and run? Great catch and some nice moves. He was running well until the stuff at the end.

1 dump off. And 1 TD to a wide open receiver over the middle. A high school QB should be expected to make that throw.

Except Cam cant

Sure, but if you think that's going to cut it in the playoffs, ive got a great bridge to sell you

Pats shouldn’t be thinking about playoffs right now. One game at a time.

They have a much more difficult opponent on Thursday and they need to beat them just as much as they needed to beat the Chargers.

That play was nice, yes. But very little burst or elusiveness as a runner. 10 carries, 35 yards. Hoping for better

Start Stidham on Thursday and I easily see the Pats losing by a similar score as they won today.

Doubt Stidham will be on the roster next year.

Did Stidham beat your dog or sleep
With your wife?

 

[moosekill]

I do. Cam can beat a team like the Rams. He has won in this league this year and Stid hasn’t.

Stidham hasn’t played in this league as a starting qb.

Stidham hasn’t played in this league as a starting qb.

And hopefully the Pats keep it that way if they want to win.

No I just don’t think he’s very good. Almost all 4th round pick QB’s aren’t.

 

[rochrist]

Bolded the most important part.

Like Stidham, Tim Tebow has had some nice throws too every now and then. Neither are/were an NFL starting QB.

So what does that make Newton? But it's complete nonsense anyway. Tebow had trouble hitting the side of the barn. Accuracy isn't one of Stidham's issues.

 

[RIpats88]

Stidham may not be the answer. But his passing ability is night and day better than cam newton.

Idk if I've ever seen a QB pass for 80 yards and then 60 yards and win both games.

It's not sustainable

Newton is the best QB on the roster. That says more about our backups than it does about Newton.

You actually have no idea if he is any good. You are simply posting crap with no evidence to support it. He has gotten to play in garbage time that is it. He hasn’t ever had a game plan built around him or been the #1 during the week. The only thing you have is he was beaten out by Brady last year and Cam Newton this year. The Goat and an all pro.

Jimmy got to a SB last year with that kind of production and wasn’t that far off from winning it. Not saying the Pats are getting to the SB but it’s probably sustainable in the short term.

Bill agrees with me. Stid can’t even beat out a guy who can’t pass for 100 yards in a game. Tells me all I need to know.

Otherwise Stid would already be our starter and Cam out the door.

I'm quite confident he will be.

 

[sb1]

I'm quite confident he will be.

I expect they’ll have a bridge QB who may or may not be Cam, and another young QB from the draft. Stid will probably be out the door imo.

 

[moosekill]

Bill also played Bledsoe in front of Brady and Sony ahead of Harris. Bb is very slow to put in younger players ahead of respected veterans.
