We’ve crapped on Bryant a lot in the past, but he has really stepped it up this year and become an integral part of the secondary.

Certainly better than Wilkinson and Shuler

@captain stone

Stone will just use it as reason that Belichick needs to go..

How are the Pats at 4 when the Commanders beat them???

How are the Pats at 4 when the Commanders beat them???

I believe head-to-head - at least in the draft - is below strength of schedule in that metric:

From the league:


Here are the standings with Conference record, etc:



At the same time, on the SOS metric, the Patriots opponent's pct is 51.% and the Commanders is 50.5%, so I'm not sure how they calculated it. (EDIT: @DaBruinz , Was just thinking about it ... I'm assuming the team with the worse record against worse competition is why that's flipped?)

Only 3 guys past 10 yards for the defense in these plays. I saw this happening a lot in the first half. Zappe is going to beat you if everyone is in the box.

Broncos changed up in the 2nd half, the OL blocked well enough for him to step into the pocket and find time.
