[QUOTis ="Creative Username, post: 3934331, member: 31480"]I can live with 3 on the drive. We got the TO. That's what most people were asking for.

MESSAGE FOR McDANIELS:

Just once... Could you not be yourself? Could you possibly adapt to some changes? And when they start to run all over us in the second half... There are these things. They're called adjustments. Make some. Thanks.

This Is BLASPHEMY here my friend. ....pure unadulterated BLASPHEMY! ....ps....couldnt agree more but dont tell anyone!
 
Sample size is still small, but BB really got what he needed in the Stork pick.
 
It's funny. Our WR group still isn't doing anything but we finally decided to move back to the 2 TE offense. Better late than never as @Rob0729 said.
 
I'm sorry but you have the best redzone guy in the whole of the NFL in Gronk and you don't use a specific play to get him open for the easy TD? Denver does it all the time for Julius Thomas and he literally stands in the end zone not covered waiting for a pass.

Losing faith in McDaniels game by game
How about just trying to run on first or second down instead of 3rd. I'm praying to any God at this point that McD doesn't give up on the run.
 
collinsworth's momentum comment as it related to momentum was spot on too...been a long time i heard such a smart comment from an nfl announcer
Collinsworth is brilliant, the man knows football.
 
First 2 downs were terrible playcalling in that redzone.. You have a running game that has been killing it all night long, why not pound it up their gut?

Barring that, use the 2 TEs that are notoriously hard to cover..

They took the 99.9% play to get points and go up by 17 at the half, you can't really complain about it.
 
30 more minutes. I hope they can hang on.

Gronk dropped the last three passes thrown his way...take the points.
 
Jamie Collins not a bright spot. Got burned twice and that fumble. Not hating, but I heard a lot of hype over that guy all off season. Hope he lives up
 
That was most satisfying half of Patriots football that I've watched since the SNF comeback against the Broncos last season.

Like i said they would. Not fair on Ridley.

I agree, probably the biggest difference between Weiss and MacDaniel''s. Weiss was much more fundamental and balanced but he could change gears like no one else, MacDaniel's has his offensive scheme and wants to run every play in it and does a poor job of adapting to the changes opposing coordinators make. I always felt like Weiss knew what the response would be and was able to be a step ahead of those moves.

No i was talking about the 3 downs before it, i don't mind the FG.
 
Guys...at the start of this game would we take 20-3..yes....all things being equal it is nice to see this team respond....still a half to play...we NEED to keep the pedal down, great 1/2 by #24
 
Jeez, McDaniels calls a hell of a first half and people are killing him now? The guy can't win.

Not killing him. I just don't understand the personnel grouping there. You want size when you're that close to the end zone and passing... not quickness. But yes, he called a great first half.
 
His character has been questioned so far this season. I think he wants to make a statement too.
He's showing that he is still the same SHUT DOWN guy he always was. He didn't forget how to be the best. The secondary has look great tonight and it starts with #24.
