The Official Patriots vs Broncos game thread

[DOGWARZ]

Please for the love of glob don't start the second half with some stupid razzed dazzle play. Just grind the stuff out of them with run.

Bolden got screwed out of that TD

 

[stcjones]

HIDEOUS use of the clock there BB and MCD!!!!! Letting clock run down....THEN running the predictable run play which they sniffed out perfectly!!! Oh well....we got 3 there....Donks feel like they got a gift.....We get ball to start 2nd half and NEED to get a TD !!!! GO PATS!!!!

I think Reiss might have got played by BB.

Looked like someone leaked to him that Gronk was "really hurting". He may not be 100%, but I would hardly say that he looks all that limited IMO.

 

[West Philly Patriot]

BB looked like he gave McD an earful there.

yea I saw that too

Should have sneaked Brady twice. When was the last time he has failed to gain a yard on a QB sneak? I know, you put him in some danger, but you also guarantee 7 points, which would haver been HUGE here.

I'm good with the team NOT using Brady in that capacity as much as possible. We have a stable of running backs that love contact. Let's leave Brady to the passing game. He's really good at the sneaks, but I've always hated them. Troy P tried to break his neck on one and Ray L tried to break his back on another. I'm good with them not calling that play ever again.

they literally went 99 yards for a FG. TD wouldve been huge with manning on the other side..you know its going to come down to the last possession.

That's how the game works sometime.

Would like to see them open the second half with a td and the lead for a change.

well ..we always hope for that usually with the pats like we did last game but they seem to overthink themselves. hopefully we make the opening kick count.

Well that was very anti climatic. Why not ride the hot Ridley hand?

Great drive getting points and killing the clock. We could of had Walter Payton with that play call and blocking running the ball and would have the same result.

 

[stcjones]

I thought he got in too.

I think you are right....and once again the Pats guys in the booth are doing a PISS poor job letting BB know when to challenge.....I thought he was in....

I would love to take some you mofos back in time to the early 90s, and leave you there ... there you would really have some crying to do .. instead of being some whiny fans ...

Sometimes I think McDaniels really tries to "prove" that he's smarter than everyone else,...what a clusterfock of a final drive. should be 21-7.....idiots

I don't think the clock use was a problem. I thought they used the clock perfectly. When you get it down to the 1 with 25 seconds and 1 TO, that's good. The play call was the problem.

They should have passed, then run the ball.

Don't scare me dude. Now you have put the fear of the last minute manning heave into my head.

 

[Disco Volante]

Was a fantastic drive, damn shame it abruptly fell apart at the end there.

Looks like running down the clock ended up hurting ourselves, they were not stopping us otherwise.

 

[pwes]

Huh? Reading the last page of this thread you'd think they were down a TD not up by 2 scores and getting the ball back after the half.

 

[italia44]

I don't know if I could have envisioned a better first half of play. This team should remain aggressive on both sides of the ball in the second half.

If you blitz manning...You die....Wash....Rinse....Repeat:yeahthat:

Quick catch up...Dennard made a nice play, but got away with illegal contact. Love both Bolden AND lil' Danny staying in bounds and looking for contact against the tackler. I think Bill was messing with the Denver D's heads, he decided he was going to call that inside run over and over until they showed they could stop it. Unfortunately, they did on the last one when Miller came free untouched. Ridley is definitely the alpha dog compared to Bolden, just has that extra thing like that spin move. Very happy with Josh's play calling, keep pounding that ball. Denver has no answers for it.

Was after the 2MW so it's down to the NFL booth review.
