Patricia: Return of the Rocket Scientist

[SammyBlueCat]

He lead the Lions to a massive upset of the Patriots

Not sure if i am ok with this.....

Bill didn't ask you first??? weird

Patricia probably learned a lot from his Lions experience. Who knows what happened. All I know is we were able to win 3 rings when McDaniels came back even though McDaniels went 5-17 before getting fired in Denver, then went 2-14 in St Louis and led the worst offense in the league in 2011 at 12 points per game. So who knows maybe Patricia will be similar and have a second revival here.

he's working for free; Detroit still paying him! hahahahaha! perfect cheap Krafty signing

I am not a huge fan of the move but whatever. I would rather have outside guys come in that didn't come up under Bill. Maybe some guys who make be more likely to speak up.

I actually like this move. This defense could use some help. My only concern with Patricia the whole time he was here, was SB52, just a horrible SB defensive performance. Otherwise I liked him a lot. Don’t know the other guy coming with him from Detroit, I’m hoping he might be a draft guru.

In 2016 they had the #1 D in the NFL and held the #1 offense to 21 points.

I hate his defense but it works. Stylistically is like watching bananas turn brown.

BB needs some brain-matter help. Aside from Josh and Crazy Ivan, lotta N00bs on the coaching staff

 

[oldrover]

Matt’s cool... if only for this...

 

[denverpatsfan]

Can't forgive that SB defensive performance and he only showed he's nothing special at the Lions. Not overly chuffed about him returning.

This x100. Losing that game will never be forgiven.

I like scruffy-looking scientists. We're a club that sticks together.

 

[Uptown]

Yes! We now have our NT...

Yes! We now have our NT...

That was my first thought also

 

[mgteich]

Welcome back.

As long as he's not the defensive coordinator, I'm ok with this. Even though his head coaching stint ended in epic failure, I'm sure that he learned a few lessons from his humbling experiences that will add to his Patriots knowledge and skillsets.

Maybe Patricia the talent evaluator got in the way of Patricia the defensive coordinator... It's not rocket science...

Not sure if i am ok with this.....

As long as he still has the clown t-shirt, he should have a guaranteed job w the Pats.

 

[PatsFanInVa]

Your keyboard to BB and Gods monitor...

fixed

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Not his biggest fan but I welcome it. I don’t blame him for sb52. Look at the personnel when you remove Malcolm butler. The fact that defense without Hightower was even remotely good leading up to that game was impressive, front 7 / pass rush was already weak , no j jones down the stretch and removing Malcolm makes the secondary serviceable at best . Its dmac gily and a bunch of jags at best.

 

[102 Pat]

Some you should be ecstatic over this since it will give you more to complain about...

 

[StrawHatPatriot]

Why is everyone here happy with this?

The era he was here was probably the worst defensive era for the Patriots under the Belichick era.

 

[Bourne Patriot]

Stafford to New England confirmed... Megatron out of retirement... 19-0
