[Triumph]

2-0 last year. What a throw at the combine. No wonder he’s going in the HOF.

More wins than Cunnigham and Greer will ever have.

Good call as always.

I like the way he throws his head back when he takes a dive.

I used to be a Josh Allen fan, but that is just rude.

Those guys at least have enough arm to get the ball past the opposing DL as does Mac Jones. Oh well 3/4 QB's ain't bad.

Cunningham was also better than your smurf buddy in the preseason.

Speaking of great calls...


Imagine talking up a guy who threw for less than 100 yards and half his pass attempts behind the line of scrimmage lololol #CrappyZappy

Not a good look. I blame the Philthy Flyers to some degree. They started flopping many moons ago.

Back in the really old days the Pats would have a good game like this and need some help from another team to make headway. That help would very rarely, if ever, come. This game was the opposite of that. Every game they needed to get closer came through for them. Things are looking up.

Imagine talking up Greer and then Cunningham and they never throw a pass.

Great calls.

Unbelievable that the radio heads and many fans have such a hard time giving Mac props after this game.
They're committed to "Mac sucks", so they have to say he was just "okay", and only because he had no TO's.
They report his stat line as if it's compared to Brady 07 - like 83% completion and 2/0 TD ratio is barely passable.
Give Mac credit. And the fact that he looked so much better when the OL played their best game of the season is not coincidence.

... And they play Miami on October 29...

Wow, did I screw that up!

 

[The Gr8est]

Play the younger WR's Pop Douglas - Bourne -Thornton - Reagor and Boutte. TE Pharaoh Brown what a find. BOB keep Parker and Juju on the bench where they belong.

When a team is willing to trade a player in the same division, as Miami did with Parker, and BB did with Bledsoe, it should be a red flag to the acquiring team.

I just don't like how sometimes they blow the play dead after 1 second on these goal line scrums and then other times like this they let the play develop forever and let the OL push and smush and gain any advantage they can. I agree that if Allen hadn't touched down then the play shouldn't have ended, but we've seen so many calls for "forward progress stopped" over the years that you'd think they should've blown the whistle after a few seconds here.... but they did not. Ultimately it worked out for NE in the end but the inconsistency is maddening. If they blew the play dead, it would've been 4th and goal and the Pats may have been able to win on a defensive stop instead of needing a TD drive.

What bothered me even more about that play was that if a Pats player had dove in there to try and punch the ball out, they'd probably throw a flag for unnecessary roughness. That play was let to go on for a lot longer than it should have.

Speaking of the referring, we saw Josh Allen get that flag for a simple shove but why didn't Mac Jones get that same consideration on the sack where the third player to get him hit him helmet-to-helmet?

Agreed. Same on here. 25/30 for 270 yards with 2 TDs and 0 ints + a game winning drive. Still not enough. Didn't play great. Lucky. Bills not at full whack etc etc. It's pathetic.

Allen is a star. Mac is not.

I just know zappy smurf is putting in way more work than Jones Grier and Cunningham and he'll be the starter in week 5 guaranteed. 2-0 last year 4eva!

 

[Vindicate]

hopefully Jones gets confidence from this game. he had the game winning drive despite the coach putting him and the offense behind the 8 ball by conservative play calling for 3/4 of the game.
are they going to go on a run and finish 12-5? no. but can they make it interesting, maybe...let's go, but Bill still needs to go. he can't be near next year's draft and free agency period

I dunno. Bill still brings a lot of value in form of a HC that continually fields a very strong defense. Yesterday somewhat "folded" in the second half, but in all reality, they held a strong offense to again a low score for a long time. Without three key players on the front 7. And JC is looking better than he did with the Chargers, which is another reminder how his coaching brings a very high level of value to the team overall by continually putting players in their best position to succeed on defense.

I do agree that if we wants to take any wins record seriously, or the next season in general, he really needs to take a long look at his drafting personnel and philosophy and switch it up. I'll be really disappointed if we keep up the same **** in that regard.

Not sure why you waste your time listening to that crap on the radio when you can get it right here on patsfans, the one-stop shop.

You're going in next.

Be ready

 

[patsinthesnow]

Sow's last two games at RG:

0 sacks, 0 hits, 1 hurry 2 penalties (11th/74 guards in pass block efficiency)

Considering he spent most of camp & the preseason at RT this is a huge development.

2-0 last year man. All that hard work this offseason paid off. I'm just acknowledging greatness like that one long throw at the combine....
