Game Day Thread Official pregame TNF thread: Pats @ Falcons

[borg]

Thanks

Pats tied for 3rd with 41 +20yd pass plays...behind TB (43) and LV (47)

Hard to believe this number is authentic given the dink and dunk passing offense in many of the games...
But.....
12 NE pass catchers have at least 1 reception for 20 yds or more

that's because we, as a fanbase , suffer from a continual malady called confirmation bias

Cheating?

Patterson a game time decision.
Cordarrelle Patterson will be a game-time decision - ProFootballTalk

 

[sb1]

If it's a high ankle sprain my guess is he will not play.

Pats Unfiltered guys talking about new guys being so involved and impacting wins.

One thing we have to recognize is that the last few years of Brady - he had become so grizzled and impatient, so demanding and untouchable.
He ignored rookies and new guys, he dog-housed young receivers that made mistakes...
The thing about Mac (and even JMD after Cam) - they seem willing to use the young guys and maximize their energy and talent.
Brady would have benched Agholor & Smith by now, and probably Rham too.
Also, it seems Brady's sulking levels are starting to sink the "fun ship" in Tampa, while the Pats are feeding off of the young team building and starting to rise.

There's no evidence of any of that about Brady. The Bucs will also be just fine.

I am curious if they do anything special with Pitts. He is a rookie so I doubt it, but do they try to use JJ Williams or Phillips or Duggar on an island?

On an island? No way... Pitts should be bracketed on Every snap.

I saw it suggested somewhere that they’ll probably treat him like they did Tony Gonzalez and basically pummel him at the line and double him.

It sounds pretty realistic.

How dare you bring the honorable Red Grange into the discussion of cheating.

Who gives a rats arse about the Buccs.

"Practiced"!!!! Neither team actually practiced. They had walkthroughs yesterday and today. Patterson could have had his leg amputated and practiced this week.

Totally over the Bucs, Brady and Gronk now. They left, and we're now in better position than them long term, and maybe even this year.

Getting everyone ready for a Wednesday:

no more kick returns for Gunner please.

Yeah, that statement feels like Smith just trying to get Bill to spend even half a minute gameplanning for Patterson.

Who should take over the KR task? Anemic performance on Sunday.
My nomination, Steve Belichick, as lots of folks here want him dead.

 

[Palm Beach Pats Fan]

28-3 victory, Mac 28-31 passing for 283 yards, Mac rushing for 2.83 yards/attempt, with Harris/Stevenson 28.3 yards/attempt

We just don't bother. Guns is tops w/ 10 KRs for 24yds per.
