Meanwhile they are 4-1 in Washington. Obviously better coaching and rookie QB lighting it up. Ekeler might of been a good add for Brissett as a security blanket. At least they were able to hold onto all that money. I’m sure they’ll use it “next” offseason.
Had we hired Adam Peters, Dan Quinn, and Kliff Kingsbury, we too could be headed in the right direction.

Don’t ever overlook where the problem starts
 
Now we have reached the point that you arguing you can make up what words mean.

No. What constitutes a delay? 1 second? 3? 15?

How long does the delay need to be before it's delayed?

That's why it's subjective and I maintain this exact same play would be called differently, depending on the team, refs and importantance of the game. No way they would of taken that TD back with game on the line in the Superbowl.
 
I agree with that. The owner is cheap and everyone in the NFL knows it. The owner also thinks he is clever and can out think the other owners so he does not have to spend as much. So the owner hired a coach that no one trusts, other coaches or players, because the new coach is cheap. Then the team tried to hire outside coaches and players. Potential new coaches and players are not impressed so they go other places. That includes Bill O'Brien and S Belichick. My point is that it is not about the contract $$ (which I thought you were saying). If the team organization is good, NFL professionals will sign here.

The Pats first have to stop being cheap and get a coaching staff that NFL professionals respect. It is not about the $$s until the rest of the team structure is in order. Overpay or massive overpay I don't care. No coach or player wants to be involved in the present Patriots' locker room.

The point is that NFL teams can turn around in 1 or 2 years. Look at the Commanders, look at the Texans, look at the 2001 Patriots. There are lots of examples of 1 or 2 year turn arounds. You were wrong on that point.

With Mayo we will not turn things around. Hopefully Jonathan Kraft is learning. Get rid of the Robyn Glazers of the world. Sign real coaches like Brian Flores and/or Ben Johnson. Get a real GM like Howie Roseman, and we can sign outside players. I think Maye will be good. We need 2 tackles and a WR in the draft and we are back in the running in 2026. We could be really good in 2026 if the Krafts wise up AND Maye is the real deal. We have a ton of cap space to fill out the defense.
At this point I am okay to get Brian Flores back. He has revitalized the vikings defense and now should be wiser after dolphins fiasco.

This players coach nonsense is killing us. Get Flores and fisch guy as OC and AHC from Washington . Retain the ST guy.

Retain wolf for 1 more year to see how he builds the team . But Mayo just gives me Dan Campbell vibes without Ben Johnson . At least Campbell is a great motivator . Mayo is just waxing oblique statements and trivialities.
 
Oxford says:

a period of time by which something is late or postponed.

The landing of the hero was not late or postponed. It was part of the step, and happened in the normal time frame that human steps happen.

How do you know that? Looks delayed to me.

Heck look at Bo Nix at 3-2 with DEN, and his stats looked great yesterday. It's not like he's got weapons there, either.

Watch the play in real time. The "delay" is literally 4 hundredths of a second at the very very most. A blink on average takes 30 hundredths. The 120 or 240 frames per second (8 and 4 thousandths of a sec, respectively) super slow motion is messing with perception. It's the time it takes from a normal person running from when the heel first touches the ground until the toe hits. Imperceptible to the naked eye.

Watch, in a few weeks Maye will get a start and the offensive line won’t look half as bad. Part of a QB’s job is to manipulate the pocket, read the defense, sense the pressure and move accordingly. Maye is missing out on some valuable playing experience.

There you go. Delay confirmed.

The exact same call would be made every single time.

A delay would be something out of the course of ordinary causing something to take longer. Landing isn’t a delay.

Delayed by what?
I posted the definition of delay.

We have reached the point of insanity.
You are wrong, you know you are wrong, but you want to cry.

So now you picked a word out of the rule book and are trying to make up a new definition for it.

I don't mind the delayed start. He was injured half of last year, and it's a huge jump in workload from 12 games to 17+Preseason.

That being said, the OL was far from stellar during his 1 real drive.

I can't help you. You don't understand that what you saw was a delay.
