So true...because

My belief is that the Pats will look to shut down Le'Veon Bell and Antonio Brown. Force Jones to beat them with Sammie Coates, Heyward-Bey, Jesse James, and Rogers..

It's gonna be tough without Valentine and Hamilton to spell Branch and Brown, unless the Pats force a bunch of 3 and outs..

 

[Ross12]

IMO the Pats will sell out to stop the run and just bracket Brown... I believe there will probably be a couple big plays to Brown but they will be few and far between - Jones won't be able to consistently hit Brown & others to win without the run game buoying him.

Is that Bennett walking beside Tom?

He is SO into being a Patriot.

Is that Bennett walking beside Tom?

No that's Wes Welker.

Speaking the Truth



Let's get it!

 

[Mack Herron]

 

[long distance]

evaluation continues

 

[long distance]

called it .. sort of



EDIT: will be interesting to monitor ST snap count

 

[jah]

Starting to get a bad feeling about Bell.

 

[long distance]

If Waddle, Coleman, McClellin are all active (currently warming up)
that doesn't bode well for Collins today

 

[long distance]

YES!

[long distance]

Richards simply didn't deserve a place on the field lately



EDIT:
His snaps diminished all the time on D and ST
With Bolden back this I guess is his reality.
PS for 2rd pick possible. Likely to clear waivers despite high pick IMO.

 

[farn]

I know many on here are down on Richards - but is he inactive due to injury ? Or coach's choice ?

 

[The Gr8est]

YES!

Interesting that Bolden is active. I didn't realize he was close to returning.

 

[Mack Herron]

 

[The Gr8est]

I'm guessing that BB really is trying to get Jones' attention.

Hope he gets it and is active again soon.
