Post Game Thread - Pats beat Jets on New Years Eve

[Doctor DDS]

Malcolm Brown and Lawrence Guy have played exceptional of late, making the Pats very tough to run against between the tackles. Better job on the edge today as well expect for a play or 2.

What would Brady do with his? Use it to wipe his backside?

Nah, he has the Terrible Towels for that......been using em since 2001.

Well Wilfork literally did do this with That Jets OL and Sanchez.....never gets old.

I love me some KVN. Great great pickup.

I'll give him credit for thinking that quickly and flopping. It obviously a joke.

Defensive line played a great game. One of their best.

Guy was immense in the 1st qtr.

I think Guy has been the best off-season acquisition
Along with Burkhead

 

[AtomicDawg]

Lol

 

[RobertWeathers]

They finished off allowing 18.5 ppg.

Take away the 14 points on TB12 fumble return vs HOU and the pick 6 vs BUF, they allowed 17.6 defensive points.

Furthermore, take away the first 4 games and they allowed 14ppg.

So a 1000 yd receiver is not even in the top 2 and is beaten out by a DT and a RB who missed 1/2 the season.

************.

All that mattered today was a W and no major injuries. Hopefully with 2 weeks to rest and prep the offense gets the walking wounded back and gets a lot sharper. If not, no Super Bowl appearance this year.

Praise to all the fans at the stadium who sat outside to watch the game today.

Go easy on me, I'm old.

I guess the reason I didn't put Cooks in there is because my expectations were so high.

A really satisfying game to watch (from the lazy boy) and see the Pats handily defeat the Jests without major injuries happening. Kudos certainly for J Harrison. In reality Pittsburgh after doing him the disservice, can see that he has refilled his energy tanks, has purpose in his game. And still has abilities to make plays. Good kicking too. On we go! Happy New Year ALL!

Fair enough

 

[Deus Irae]

I thought Dorsett settled in a bit, after he dropped the easy one. Hopefully that was a game for him to build on.

 

[MitchKumstein]

This Harrison guy seems ok

It was very considerate of Tomlin to make sure that JH was rested and healthy before handing him over to us for nothing

Was good to see TB go right back to him in crucial situation(3rd down) and even better for Dorsett to make the play.

I can understand that. I also thought he'd do more. But that doesn't alter the fact he had a very productive season.
I'd have to put him #1.
I think part of high expectations for him assumed JE11 would be playing. Julian, like Gronk and Lewis,opens up things for everyone else. Hopefully he returns close to his bad mofo self- I think then you'll see a lot more good things from cooks- along with having a full season under his belt with TB. Chemistry takes time- so does mastering the most complex offense in the NFL.
