PostGame Thread Official Post Game Thread: Pats destroy the Browns

[DaBruinz]

Great win, but I'll go to my grave saying Hunter Henry's 19 yard over the shoulder catch in the second wasn't a catch. The ball bounced off the ground. But I simply cannot find the close up slow motion replay.

The ball is allowed to "hit the ground" as long as it's in the grasp of the player and it doesn't come loose. Sorry, but it was a catch..

 

[BennyBledsoe]

Yeah, Wynn was good today. Everybody has a day.

 

[Pats2000]

Good win

This Patriots team has performed better than I thought. I'm still reticent to buy in, but the team isn't playing around. They might go ahead and get 11 wins.

Since it's important the team gets your buy in, should I have BB reach out to you with the sales pitch?

Bert Emanual rule??

With Arizona getting stomped right now, the Pats have the second best point differential in the NFL at +98. Buffalo is first with +145.

Less than one year ago Tom had his Bucs on top of the football world while Bill and his Pats were mired in mediocrity. Many ion the media proclaimed that the Patriots success was all due to Brady. Today while Tom Brady's Bucs Super Bowl hopes dimmed in a loss to the WFT, Belichick's Patriots took the field without a top FA signing (Smith) and top RB (Harris) against a stout Browns team coming off a beat down of the Bengals. We saw it all come together with FAs Henry, Bourne and Judon, and draft picks Barmore, Stevenson and Jones, execute a brilliant game plan with flawless offensive play calling took a blowtorch to the Browns and vaporized a solid team to the tune of 45-7. It's just one game, of course, but today as the Bucs fade ,the Patriots rookie QB had a Brady-esque performance and the Patriots future shines bright with promise.

BB and brady are that good to create competitive teams... No wonder together they dominated. The pats have a legit shot if they continue to improve and can run the ball this well. Heck we gave up field position with no punt returner. The pieces are meshing.

I had to DVR the game today and just watched it. What a beat down! Not surprised on the final score, as I thought they would win big, but overall they’re playing as well as any team in the league.

 

[Patsfanin Philly]

What impressed me was three 90 plus yard drives. Actually 4 if you count the 83 yard drive that had a 10 yard penalty forcing trhem to go 93 yards on the drive.....

Why do certain posters always disappear when the pats win. They were all over these threads in the beginning of the season gloating how they were right pointing out why the patriots were not good

are they really so chicken sh it fake fans that they can’t give credit to the team ever . They must be miserable people

Whoever could we talking about *cough @DropKickFlutie *cough*

The ball bounced off the ground then off his neck/chin and then back into his hand.

You must have missed how I said this was the best called game of the year and do more of this.

But I get it, you're an imbecile who only thinks in binary terms

Yes on all accounts.

One thing I have just thought of that I find quite interesting... they've won 4 in a row, and all of the wins were not ever really close. 2 were "blowouts", 1 wasn't quite a blowout but was never really at risk, and the only one that ever had a close score was the Chargers game, but even that one felt pretty well in control by the fourth quarter and the Chargers scoring was just garbage time clock-killing stuff. So really it's been essentially 4 games' worth of dominance. Besides the Jets, these are playoff-contenders they're doing it against. Just prior to this streak, they lost tight games against TB and Dallas, who are title contenders... I'm really feeling quite positive about their trajectory. I think they might surprise some people and get a win against TEN or BUF in the next few weeks here.

Both run really hard, as does Bolden. I love our running game, especially the last 5 weeks. Brown makes a difference too. Stevenson, there’s just something about him, I think defensive players don’t realize how big he is, until they try to tackle him. I also think he shocks them because he has decent speed, and excellent shiftiness. Also a better receiver than people realized.

I agree, he's a stud. Plays like Leonard Fournette. And what I like about Harris is how decisive he is and how quick he hits the hole.

No question they split BUF.

11-6 is real.

Hes better than Fournette

 

[Betterthanmost]

This is what I saw during the game of the buy in happening.

 

[DaBruinz]

this still proves nothing.

we won against Panthers who were without CMC (just played a few snaps as a distraction against NE and has over 150 YDS vs Arizona) and against Cleveland without Chubb and Hunt.

this NE team has to grow to make it to playoffs this year. I see some serious teams on our schedule.

You probably should stop talking because you're showing you don't know wtf your saying..

McCaffery saw 29 snaps for the Panthers. He had 14 rushes for 52 yards and 4 receptions for 54 yards.. That's hardly a "few snaps as a distraction". If you're going to point out his production in Arizona, how about pointing out that he's only got 13 rushes there for 95 yards. Yeah, he has 10 receptions for 66 yards because he's Walker's safety blanket, but that doesn't change the fact that the Patriots held McCaffery in check.

As for the Browns, they were touted as having one of the best O-lines in the league. They had the 3rd best Run Defense in the league as well. They were the 6th best offense going into the game.. And the Pats held them to 7 points. And put up a 45 spot on that defense.

And you think that they "haven't proven anything". Sit down, Francis. You're embarrassing yourself.

The only "serious" teams on the Schedule are the Bills and Titans. And no one is looking past them. Both have shown to be beatable.

Definitely no reason to think we can't beat anyone as of right now!

Mac had some absolutely gorgeous passes today! So much arch and touch on the ball, the receivers must love catching passes from him!

I was nervous about this game lol, what a ****ing beating
