Patriots Pregame Thread Official Pre- Game Thread- Bucs @ Pats

[Pats1971]

FWIW: Bucs pass defense has faced these passing offenses
Cowboys (10th in league)
Falcons (25th)
Rams (6th)

And next up Pats (20th)

Pats also have the #2 pass defense in the NFL right now though they haven't played any good QB's yet...

Yeah the QB's the pats have faced are pretty near the bottom of the barrel. Winston was the best one so far and I am not sure he has had over 200 yards passing in a game yet.

I think Pats reload batteries and play well this one...still i do not think we will be able to win but i expect a much more close game then expected

Not sure how they measure passing offense, but Stafford has a rating of 129 and Prescott 110. Not sure how these teams are only ranked 6 & 10. Ryan isn’t doing great but is at 87…25th ranked? Odd.

The offensive line was so bad in pass protection at times that it gave Jones no shot to hit multiple big plays that were there.

O Sony, Where Art Thou?

 

[Zuma]

I'm betting it will be Ito Smith...

 

[irishfanatic]

If they sign one of them I hope he can Pass Protect.

 

[DropKickFlutie]

I don't agree with every single interpretation but Lazar has been doing good work this season.

The offensive line was so bad in pass protection...


...The patriots were paying somebody called Joey Three Thumbs to help out. Protection. Get it?

...Mac Jones got pregnant

...On one play the O-line was replaced with four women all talking to each other with their back turned to the defense, whom Mac Jones called "some of my girlfriends from work..."

...Ex player says reliable source inside the building told him the Saints D-line was sitting our O-line down and teaching our playbook to them...

...Visa called Mac Jones about doing a commercial illustrating what happens when you use the other credit card...

... Trojans called Mac Jones and you know the drill. No pun intended.

...19 Saudis called Mac Jones saying they want to learn to go a long way in the air without a touchdown...and Cam Newton said he wouldn't show them (too soon?)

...Josh McDaniels, dissatisfied with the shotgun, looks into the railgun formation

...subway turnstiles are starting to act indignant about the association...

...coaching staff, remembering success of Mankins gambit, hires mime because he's supposed to be good in a phone booth...

...Ernie Adams studying WB Yeates' "The Second Coming" because he's sure there's a secret code in there starting with the line "Things fall apart; the center cannot hold"

...Bill BeliRick spins Big Wheel of Better Offensive Line Options and replaces them with two crows

I'm betting it will be Ito Smith...

Probably but he'll start off on the bench since he fumbled once last season.

Jamel Dean might suit up for tampa on sunday, according to reports…

 

[Betterthanmost]

Can I just get We are onto Bucs thread created? That was the winning formula.

 

[Ochmed Jones]

Really hoping this game is the nadir of our season.
