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

[sb1]

the difference is I won‘t be cheering for #12 just so Belichick is humiliated, like some posters here…

Nobody here is cheering for Belichick to be humiliated.

Me on Sunday to 911 dispatcher: “Yo’ send help ‘cause Tom Brady out here killin’ everybody.”

How many of you would be pi$$ed off at Brady if he came in here and ran up the score, let's say he hung a 60 burger on us? I know I would lose a ton of respect for him if that were his plan...

Why would anyone lose respect for tom if the picks our defense apart? It's more our fault if we give up so many points. We should then look for improvement instead of blaming the other team for our loss

He's going to try to get 100 if he can no doubt about it. Same logic applies as when we did that to other teams like in 2007. Don't like it then play great defense and stop him.

The difference being he's not playing just another team. This isn't NE humiliating Washington in 2007. If he runs up the score on us, it would frankly piss me off. No need to humiliate your old team and fan base of 20 years.

Patriots' biggest point spreads as underdogs at home under Belichick (2000-2021):

-11.5 points (2001 vs. Colts)
-8.5 points (2001 vs. Rams)
-7 points (2020 vs. Ravens)
-7 points (2020 vs. Bills)
-5.5 points (2021 vs. Bucs*) *opening line

LMAO I never knew the exact spread for Brady’s first ever start. That’s great.

Either way he's not letting off the gas regardless of score and the Pats better be ready for what's coming.

Tbh I was not a fan of us doing this in 2007.

Obviously the hype is going to be enormous because of Brady returning. All hype aside the reality is that it's a super bowl contender against a team that is still in the middle of a rebuild.

I think the initial hype will be huge as a game gets closer but I wonder how many people are going to drop off from watching the game as it goes on.

It's a dream matchup and probably won't ever happen again. Ideally would have been a Super Bowl game....

No matter what he does will piss you off. You're a whiner. It's what you do.

 

[Zarozzor]

The 2007 team running up the score gets overblown. It stems from the Dallas and Washington game.

If they really wanted to run the score up, they could have put up 60+ in the first Miami game and second Buffalo game.

I dont know about here. Boston media certainly is as is the rest of the country.

 

[SVN]

Nah you can be a fan of both the player and the team.

Cant root against your team though. I cant at least.

 

[CISGS]

Fully expect Tampa to annihilate the Pats this weekend. Brady will be as fired as up as humanly possible.

 

[Guts]

Yeah I agree I definitely want to win this game for the Patriots any other game I'd root for Brady to win

So you're cheering for our team to lose then? Are you trolling, or just joking?

James White suffered a hip subluxation against Saints

Patriots running back James White left Sunday's game with a hip injury and it sounds like it will be a while before he's able to return to action.

He's dead serious...I'm sure he's not the only one on this board

Why are you going to ban him?

I guess I have to give him a little credit for at least being honest and not denying it. lol
