Patriots Pregame Thread Week 6: Texans @ your 1-4 Patriots

[One-If-By-Sea]

Look for an accurate pass over 10 yards, and if that happens than we have an upgrade over the first 5 games. Look for someone that can step up in the pocket, does not throw off their back foot, or cry when they get hit, and if that happens than we have an upgrade over the last 3 years.

Not sure if Mentioned:

Patriots signed Tucker Addington - LS - to the PS
Patriots signed Marcus Harris - DT - to the PS.

1 space on the "53". PS is full.

The towel’s already been thrown-in, by both ownership and management… All I hope for the rest of the season is that Maye ends each game walking off the field under his own power, wiser & better-prepared than the week before…IF he even survives the beating he’s gonna be given this Sunday.

The OL and the QB have to help each other.. having a terrible OL and a terrible QB you get what you've been watching all season. Can't have both cap'n.. look around the league.. no OL is playing all pro level football this season.. Burrow has a **** OL and all he did was put up 5 TDs.. personally I feel like Drake can help this line.. he can make plays when protection breaks down, he can throw guys open.. he possess all the tools you want in a top 5 QB.. all he needs to do is play. To me I could care less if they win or lose I just Want to see the kid play well and grow.

Absolutely!!! I grew frustrated as a fan continuing to hear Brissett gives the best chance to win. LMAO.. I'm looking for Drake to be able to get outside when the play isn't there, hit open guys, accurate throws to pop as he's always open. Jacoby could do none of this. As I've said having a bad OL and a Bad QB is a bad combination.

As do I… I also want to see the kid finish the season without needing off-season surgery somewhere.

Well.. if we kept playing Brissett I was going to need to visit pearl vision. And I have 20/20 vision

Defensively they need to stop the run without brining a guy down into the box. If they can do that, I put Gonzo on Dell and have a safety help on Diggs.

Do that imo and the Pats can win. Houston hasn't been great this year so far, they really haven't.

What I've noticed is gonzo has been moving around this season on different WRs.. I think that is what makes him so good.. I really wish the defense was at full strength this season.

Pats are elevating Terrell Jennings over Kevin Harris.. Wonder how long before Harris is dumped entirely.

Harris once looked like he'd be a decent Rham backup. He seems to have flamed out. I wonder what the coaches are seeing.

I thought Jennings looked good in preseason, better than Harris.

Those were the days. It used to be an automatic win as Bill would have them prepared, the crowd was loud and it had that mystique for opposing teams that they didn’t have a chance.

Bill had them prepared …

If the Patriots offense have 2 effective drives over 50 yards each and score td's I'm happy. Losing but improving I can live with.

Our new two down thumper run stopper??

Yup. The Bentley and Takitaki are 1st down run stuffers. Very similar.

I did like the Takitaki and Gibson signings. Good players at a reasonable price.

We are so depleted on defense.. he is a welcome sight.

X who went down with injury is also a good run stuffer too.
