Patriots Pregame Thread Week 13: Colts @ the home of the 6 time Super Bowl Champs

[Real fan 02]

Talented player who has had a bad start, he was drafted ahead of Gonzalez IIRC… a fresh start would probably do him good… I’d claim him

I was reading he didn't fit the scheme in Washington. If he gets to us.. could be a future sign of what the secondary could look like with 2 really talented guys on the outside at CB.

The good news is that Mike Pellegrino is a good coach. I think he would be able to make Forbes at least productive. There have been some issues misusing the CBs this year which has to do with Mayo and Covington. If they replace Covington in 2025 then that probably gets resolved. They need a Jon Jones replacement at corner anyway. Forbes would be very cheap for a couple more years.

Agreed that is why fobrbes is so intriguing to me.. a young player misused in Washington.. could come here and work with I believe the best second coach in the league in pelligrino. Jon Jones has been a great player here but we all can see his time is up at CB. Gonzo, Marcus in the slot and Forbes could be a nice trio next season.

Are we like number 4 in the claim department based on current draft position??

I think we are 3rd PF2..

Wolf and Mayo especially need to make a way to get Forbes.. Hopefully he can fall to us.. gonzo has been an all pro this season.. he needs a partner on the outside.

I don’t really like this squad. If not for Maye, there’d be little reason to watch. While I knew we we spoiled, it’s becoming more apparent each week…

All I watch for is Drake. I'm already on to FA 2025.. winning or losing makes no difference anyway they are picking in the top 5.

Phil Perry said that the team is all in on Mayo for the long term. Don't expect him to get fired at the end of the season. Or even at the end of the next.

If what perry said is true, Kraft needs his head examined

I’d argue RK would have benefitted from testing for the last several years…

[turkeyneck]

Do you suppose the guy who runs this Kraft operation was hired the same way Mayo was?



And would he be given as much leeway to fail?

I do not like the throwback reds. Don't know why everyone drools over them. So ugly.
If they're going to mix it up with a red-based uni, why not do something cool with a new take on the color and design.
True throwbacks should be used once every couple years, not 2x in one season.

The upcoming bills blow outs losses may get some people fired during the game.

The last three are going to be brutal. Two tough teams. The Pats already have discipline problems on the field. Imagine when they're completely checked out more than they are now. It's going to get ugly.

If the team totally collapses, maybe there is a chance RKK has a "re-do" and changes direction sooner based on his shortening life span. (Vrabel would be a great pick)

But barring a complete meltdown, Mayo and Co. are going to return.
