Can the D please get some thanks from the Pats' Nation?

Mostly good half except for the O-line...hopefully it will continue.

Saints D seems tuned in 2 #Patriots down & distance tendencies. They've dialed up right call for no gain multiple times. 5 gms=fingerprints


this is on josh. need to mix it up a bit.

Interesting way to end the half.

Blount just looks longingly at them, wondering what could have been...

LMAO. Awesome post.

I actually hate Blount as a player, I wanted him cut in the preseason, even when he does well I boo.

Xtra Pat on backs for our rookie DTs. Not only not getting gouged, but both making big plays!

 

[Sparetire]

I dont like our recent series of play-calling...


But going into halftime with 10 pts lead, i cant complain.

I think the reason why our record is so good is partly because of our good defense. Jets v. Pats was an example of that.

All I got to say, when we get vereen and gronk back, this offense could have something.

 

[nabwong]

We got really lucky with the false start call. I'll take it.

 

[Archeryaddict12]

But the offensive line is not good.

 

[Foxypats]

Need to stay aggressive on both sides of the ball . The screens were working well. Should go back to that early and often!!

How many times have we ran it up the middle on 2nd and 10 this year? Josh needs to step it up.

 

[Ozymandias]

I wonder what the detractors and haters are gonna say about this defensive performance? Since they've disregarded everything they done to date with nonsensical excuses.

Is keep Brees and the Saints to seven points not good enough for you either? What more do you need to see to finally give these boys their due?

The defense is amazing!

If Dobson continues to run good routes with his size/speed.....

Indeed. I'm just so happy to see what I've seen this season thus far. They are in position, and they're making the plays more often than not. The secondary has been solid. Run D has been solid. And they're getting pressure when it really matters more often than not. We haven't seen that in the last six or so seasons on a consistent basis.

 

[PATRlOT]

Our O-Line is playing like trash but aside from that, we've been playing great.

A couple iffy playcalls on offense too. I'm not a fan of these screen passes to Amendola.

Ridley looks GREAT. A lot of people seem to think he's overrated but I don't at all. And Hooman is a definite surprise but I'm happy to see what he's capable of. I wanna see him catch more passes.

edit: Also, PAY AQIB TALIB. I love his physicality.

Ridley 11 carries 61 yards 2 touchdowns, Blount 5 carries 5 yards 0 touchdowns.

If McDaniel's continues to use Blount he should be fired. Ridley and a healthy Vereen in the playoffs will make this team a beast.
