The official Patriots vs Lions's pre-season game thread

[s3antana5757]

I'm actually considering the possibility that Detroit is playing well.

Pats are also missing pieces all over the place, especially on defense. Detroit clearly wants this game.

Dear BB,

We know it's the 3rd game of the preseason, but it is okay to get TB12 the hell outta there. We understand. Really.

Thanks,

that ball was underthrown by 25 yards. johnson picked the ball up first and was able to adjust. thats almost impossible to guard

I agree, his coverage was excellent on that play.

If the preseason game threads are doom and gloom,I would hate to see a less than perfect game in here in the regular season...,get a grip

With that being said, 3 words.....Mallett second half

I'm trying to figure out why people need to post this crap. Yes people know its preseason, yes it doesn't mater, no the skies not falling,, however the Lions are basically toying with us at this point. Both lines are getting punked. What,, are people not supposed to notice this?

I think the Lions playing this game as a regular season. Seats are sold out!!

 

[BlueThunder]

What did he say to him...it's your turn to miss a tackle?

I mostly agree.

My issue is it looked like McCourty looked back, saw the ball was short, and then just started jogging. It looked to me like Johnson picked up the ball later than McCourty, and the difference was that he actually made an effort.

25 yards my arse. That was marginally under thrown with Johnson making an early adjustment. McCourty didn't even have good coverage on that play.

Beaten badly by Burleson and Johnson now. He's not had a good pre-season. Thankfully it is just that, the pre-season.

Wow, haven't seen this team look so bad and without desire to be on the field in quite some time....this is embarrassing, and spare me the "Detroit's an upcoming team b@llsh$t"...Get to half at 17-10 and it won't be so bad...

 

[juny]

i'm sticking by with the excuse that the players are more concerned with irene than the game

 

[crowell33]

goodbye Brandon Tate

 

[juny]

bye-bye tate, edelman is just fine with returns

 

[IllegalContact]

Preseason game.......don't mean much.....

Except to the lions

 

[Mogamedogz]

Seriously.. Brady is going to get hurt if they dont get him out of there. WTF. Times like this I want to punch BB in the face.

 

[Banjo]

The Patriots clearly don't give a **** anymore so neither will I.

eh... this Steelers/Falcons game is looking good.

 

[BadMoFo]

Well Tate's gone, the thing he does best and Edelman does it better.

On both sides of the ball. Stafford has a perfect 158.3 rating so far.

 

[stcjones]

Vollmer? How about the entire OLine?

You are right....they all suck tonight. Especially vollmer, connolly, and the new gentle giant!

 

[makoute]

Brady hasn't looked great either.

 

[Rob0729]

This team is flat and it starts with Brady.
