Week 8 pregame discussion: Pats @ Chargers

[RIpats88]

Hopefully the offense has found something and can keep it going. I think most of our losses have been due to the offense not being able to get out of its own way and putting the defense in tough position

I hear there's a huge house party on Bluff Road in Nayatt tomorrow starting at 3 pm. You can't miss the house; it's the one with the flag of Flying Elvis wearing a yarmulke.
BYOB

We all got schnickered… It was a blast!

Hopefully we see all RB's active. We should have a field day running on them. Worst run D, if I'm not wrong.

You're not and their O-line is nothing special so we have to take advantage of that and not let Herbert any time to throw.

The line moved from -5.5 to -3.5 Chargers. I’ve got a decent bet on the ML. Pats have to take advantage of a good matchup.

Also, ESPN said 63% pats fans at the game. A quasi-home game today for the team.

BB is not going to do the same thing he did last time, and especially not with Jon Jones out.

Agree. No Gilmore no JJ changes things.
But I still think theyll play a good amount of man, though obviously not nearly as much as in last year's game.

This is def not a coverage D. The only one left who can legitimately play backward game is JC.
They will def mix and match coverages as much as they can . were very exposed vs DAL . DAL smart to wait till 4Q (OT) to take full adv.

What i hope is they start getting more creative rushing. They opened up rushing schemes a little bit vs Jete . played pretty vanilla most of the year . Judon (+ Barmore) the only one who can have consistent success 1v1.

Hopefully we see all RB's active. We should have a field day running on them. Worst run D, if I'm not wrong.

Id be surprised to see all RBs active since JJ & Rham dont factor on Special Teams and there are injuries there..
Also LAC are getting key pieces of their run D back from injury just this week. Can still run on them just not as easy as couple of weeks ago..
