The Official Patriots vs Panthers game thread

Offense did some good things in that first drive. Let's hope they can finish this one with a TD.

When did Talib start sucking?

he has missed 3 or 4 games...you expect him to be 100% game shape in the first drive?

 

[TomPatriot]

Ok, we can spot them 7. No problem!

 

[Archeryaddict12]

Talib needs to calm down. And this game is on Brady to command to offense to alot if point.

Time to man up Pats....BB needs to kick solder and talib in their respective ball bags....of course BB would have to get up on a step ladder to kick solders bag.....

The fact that Tavon Wilson is now playing behind Nate Ebner is really alarming and disappointing.

 

[Foxypats]

wow, Panthers are 5 and 0 when scoring first!!!! We got to change that today.

 

[Mark12]

The wind is becoming a factor.

I'm intrigued to see what Boyce can do as a KO returner.

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

why does gruden love newton and the panthers so much? holy homer

 

[Silver Blue&Red]

Talib not being a team player. Cost us 7. Selfish

Fletcher blitzed...didn't get there.

I thought he's supposed to read either the Newton run or the crossing route into his zone and decide if he sits or rushes.

Maybe he doesn't have the option for reading the cross route... just the QB rush.

 

[Ozymandias]

Boyce on KR like many of us were asking for at the beginning of the season. Not that it matters much due to the rule changes, but I like his speed in that spot more than Blount.

Because of that I feel he has a better chance to break off a long one if the opportunity ever presents itself more than Blount does.

Well this game is starting out great. Lets see if the Pats have the intestinal fortitude to win a game like this.

O course they do. Might not win, but it won't be because they lack the character or fight.

 

[PP2]

Was that Fletcher's responsibility? I think he has an option at MLB to stay in his zone or blitz. Hmmmm

He was in spy and I am guessing he is to blitz after a certain amount of time.

Offense did some good things in that first drive. Let's hope they can finish this one with a TD.

well...;if "genius child" McDaniels stops the Hooman "I'll trick 'em!" calls and calls plays to our all world TE instead, we CAN move the ball on this defense. The O line has to limit these obvious missed assignments...that Solder whiff was pathetic

 

[Rob0729]

Talib needs to know that Smith is a trash talking a-hole and not let it get to him. Smith is effectively pushing his buttons and he is the one who will pay if he doesn't calm down.

 

[PatsBoy12]

Talib needs to calm way down. He's one of our best defenders and we cannot afford an ejection or suspension.

 

[SB39]

The wind is becoming a factor.

Trailing 7-0 after the first quarter where the other team had the wind isn't exactly the worst start in the history of football. NE has come back in tougher situations. Still a lot of football left to be played (but maybe not for Talib if he doesn't smarten up)

 

[English Patriot]

Time to protect and go for Gronk
