"We're on to Denver..."

[PatsFan2]

Likely getting Gilmore back in this game. I know that the donkeys play better at home but we shouldn't have a problem beating that team. Their season's probably done already.

We could really end it Sunday Night though nothing like putting the final nail in a opponents coffin.

That's why I'm saying that I believe they've quit on the season. It's always possible they could get up to play New England (most teams tend to do so), but this is a team that's been outscored 124-52 in their last four (all losses). This looks like a team that's mailed it in.

Gilmore is one of the bigger storylines for me. This is a good game for him to come back, since he's facing either Simien or Brock, which should warrant a good game.

Plus we've shown that we don't quite need him, so I want him to be out there for merit

We’re undefeated without him. Hopefully they installed a major attitude adjustment while he was in concussion protocol. Half the time he played like he was high on the stimulant plentiful and legal in the state the team is playing in Sunday night.

My thought exactly is there that much of a difference while playing football?? If they acclimate to Denver is it consistent with Mexico City??

Any trip to Denver is worrisome... never discount this team.

I read in the Schedule thread that it takes approximately 3-6 weeks to acclimate to high altitude running.

Altitude-Gate? Patriots Early Landing Won't Give Them An Oxygen Edge

We're ****ed. Game over!

Mexico City is significantly higher ...

Since Colorado legalized cannabis, Denver may have caught up by now.

Let the games begin..

One of our defenders needs tom demonstrate some cat like quickness and score a pick-6. A pick-6 will demoralize whoever they select to start at qb.

Have we had a pick six this year or last year? Unless I'm forgetting it seems like it has been a while. We are past due for one.

Patriots pile it on with pick six

IF our Defense make Brock Inaccurate Osweiler look anything more than a below average QB I am going to be livid.

Hmmm...good point.

You can't stop Brock Osweiler. You can only hope to contain him.

Well he threw 2 on Sunday but the DBs showed why they play defense. If either were Gilmore, pick-6.

Your post reminded me of the those old "confucius say" jokes.

Curious edge for Broncos . even they don't know who will start next..

Do you have a good sense of the additional game planning necessary for preparing for 2 QBs rather than 1? How much does it depend on the QB's schematic fits? Does throwing mechanics like arm angle and release time matter? Scramble ability and escapability are obvious ones. Maybe the ability to go threw multiple reads is relevant.

I wonder how all of this would impact coverage.

They have to prepare for both anyway. As Belichick always says, the backup QB can be in after one play in any game.

I don't want them to quit. I want them to have a super great feeling that they'll turn in all around coming into the game. Then I want the Patriots to destroy those hopes, destroy those dreams, destroy everything good they thought this season would bring them and which causes them to completely give up on the season.

I just need the Patriots to wrap that task up by 11:00pm. I have to get up early the next day where I'm doing some volunteer work at Hope For Humanity.

The team focusing on every game. We could lose on any Sunday.

However, I would note that DEN is a really bad team.
