The Official Patriots vs Texans game thread

[PP2]

Texans tipped their hands pretty bad here. Even a 5 year old would have seen that inside blitz coming.

It's weird. Before Gronk and Vereen got back, the Pats absolutely sucked in the third quarter. I think in the last 3-4 weeks, they might be the highest scoring team in the third quarter.

Good point and very true. Our best offensive weapons are probably:

1. Gronkowski
2. Vereen
3. Edelman
4. Dobson (when healthy)
5. Amendola
6. Thompkins

Interesting that Develin is playing some TE today. He wouldn't be my first choice..

I wouldn't have said this a few weeks ago, but I wish Blount was used on that last play.

 

[heavyde050]

Good play by Brady and Bolden

 

[wolverinejoe80]

vereen and his hands

 

[heavyde050]

Vereen has to catch that. Big miss

 

[stcjones]

****kkkkkl come on vereen!

 

[woolster22]

Aren't you supposed to turn and look?

 

[Ozymandias]

Vereen's having some big drops. Couldn't have asked for a better throw. Should have been six.

 

[PatsBoy12]

Isn't that the second one used?

 

[Rob0729]

A lot of holding definitely going on...but this sh! Tty defense is pathetic and inexcusable. BB has done a horrible job with defense AGAIN this year....injuries are tough with kelly and wilfork going down...but cmon BB...

Yeah, the Pats only lost Wilfork, Mayo, and Kelly along with Talib, Gregory, and Dennard for a number of games. What team can't field a good defense with most of their starters in street clothes. Even an average coach could have a dominant defense with five rookie starters (two of them undrafted free agents).

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

waste another TO...they are going to miss those later on...

 

[Kdo5]

One timeout left....yikes.

 

[Foxypats]

wasted a time out.

 

[Brady6]

Interesting that Develin is playing some TE today. He wouldn't be my first choice..

No Hooman, Mulligan is mainly a blocker and Williams likely doesn't know the offense that well yet.

 

[wolverinejoe80]

vereen just have horrible hands. that's just too bad

 

[West Philly Patriot]

great throw by Brady, almost Vereen.

 

[PatsBoy12]

Vereen's having some big drops

Drops, especially the kinds that can change a game, are becoming routine with him. That's something that I'm sure can get better, especially when they remove the cast.

People being hard on vereen. He is not 6'2 WR. If anything that shows how thin we are at WR right now.
