Why are all the "greater than" arrows pointing to the left? Do you read from right to left?
Stupid post makes stupid mistake...
been saying for a decade now that if I was a promising WR coming out of college, the LAST good team I'd want drafting me would be the Patriots. Their offense is difficult and Brady has no patience (less each year) with anything less than seasoned perfection.
N'Keal Harry could be a good pro receiver - but never in this system. Makes you wonder, if the twitch game is what the Pats want, or maybe all Brady can do now after all these years, then why the hell did they draft Harry instead of someone like Deebo Samuel?
Harry isn't built for running Edelman/Amendola/Welker routes. I figured they were going to change the offense when they brought in all these huge WRs, but nope, they're instead sticking a square peg into a round hole, with expected success...
This is on the coaches, and yes, on Brady. His comments and open frustration aren't leadership - it's like he's got that whole offense walking on eggshells, thinking too much and terrified of making a mistake and being put in timeout corner. Even Dorsett and Brady are off now.
Sorry, but I'm watching other teams - Seahawks, Chiefs, Rams, etc - scheming lesser receivers than the Pats corps open all day long.
Again, the Pats COULD HAVE drafted Samuel and Mecole Hardman, Isabella, or even Terry McLauren if they wanted a middle-of-the-field, Edelman-like scrapper.
Instead you're going to run Harry 5 yards on a turn-in against Robey? (Ps. on that play, Myers was open 10 yards further along and 5 yards to the middle of the field).
BB excels in putting defenders in a position to succeed. They just aren't doing that on the offensive side of the ball right now...leading to posts like the one in question, where Sanu is worse than most JAGs? Umm, you know, there's actually a history on the guy worth looking at.
A myriad of problems put them to this point, most notably, the collapse of the OL to injuries early on that severely limited their game plan. It's really frustrating, though, to see the way their skill position drafting is not aligned with their game style, adn hteir utter inability to adjust that game style.
Or maybe they're just building for the future. Brady doesn't look like someone who wants to play another year - here, at least.
PS. None of this means I don't think they can't right the ship enough to push out a couple of wins in January/February. Haven't given up on them.
