loaf Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Purely from a storyline aspect, I'm more looking forward to the Vikings - Eagles game this weekend. I would like to see the Pats in the SB more than the neutered passing attack of the Jags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forever in debt to mo lewis Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 one cannot argue...every patriots superbowl in the brady/belichick area has been close....and 6 of the 7 have been pretty damn entertaining also...if anyone is looking for a future sean mcvay....or mcvay part 2...it might not be too much longer http://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/22132194/florida-atlantic-coach-lane-kiffin-hires-charlie-weis-jr-offensive-coordinator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gourdeau Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Wr's coach retired, Hines Ward the lead candidate to fill that roll, QB coach to fill OC position which means Ben will have a lot more freedom, I see a lot of hurry up O next season.

michaelredd9 Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 (edited) I've been hearing rumors that Brady didn't really injure his hand in practice. He missed practice to have surgery to add a 6th finger so he has a finger for each ring. Edited January 19, 2018 by michaelredd9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaelredd9 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I think the Patriots have a tough road to win another Super Bowl. Their offense is not as dominant as in previous years. Their offensive line is not as good as in previous years. Jacksonville, Philadelphia, and Minnesota probably have the 3 best defenses in the NFL. Any of these defenses can beat the Patriots at the line of scrimmage. I won't be at all surprised if the Patriots only score 17 or 21 points this week or in the Super Bowl. Although the Patriots defense has also been playing extremely well over the last three-quarters of the season. So maybe the Patriots can pull out a win even if their offense falters. The truism has always been that defense wins championships. But that really hasn't been true for a long while. Over the last 20 years, having a dominant offense has been far more important than defense with only a couple of exceptions. But the NFL goes in cycles. It has been a long time since the final 4 teams have been as dominant on defense as these teams. Maybe this is the start of a new era where defense shines.

I think a lot of folks have a hard time getting past the name Jacksonville Jaguars because for years they have been synonymous for failure and an overall poorly managed franchise. I mean really how many fans in NE have actually watched Jacksonville play this year other than the last 2 weeks? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caveman_Nick Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 (edited) I’d like to add that, after an historically bad start to this NFL season, the NE Patriots are #1 in scoring defense weeks 5-17. I know everyone want to talk about how great Jax, Min and Philly are on defense, and they are, but I think people underrate the Pats D because they are not flashy. They also rank sixt in sacks during that period, BTW. The Patriots are not a slouch on D, and I think that is why the QB comparisons are very important....because I don’t think any of these teams gives away much to the others on defense. 4 very good defensive teams.

Cowboyz1 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Oh yeah, Coughlin knows how to beat the Pats. I didn't think about that until now. They are playing Patriot football against them. The Jags look just like the Giants and playing smashmouth football on all three sides of the ball. Love it. Tired of the Pats really. Time for some new blood. Go Jags.

MikesVikes Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 On 1/16/2018 at 8:52 PM, ItsMitchh said: Idiot. Because the refs went 35-53 for 337 yards. Because the refs threw 3 tds and 0 picks. Right? Because the refs sacked Mariota 8 times. Because the refs scored 35 unanswered points. Because holding Henry to 12 rushes for 28 yards is the refs doing. Right? A couple calls went against the Titans. So what? That means they should've won? That entitles them to 21 points and a game winning field goal? Calls go both ways pal. Gronk gets interfered with on literally every single play. They call it? No. Keep whining though. And yeah Gourdeau. The NFL really praying for the Pats. After they dragged Brady through deflategate, I'm positive Goodell wants nothing more than the Pats in another Superbowl. Yeah. No doubt. Dumbass. Well I thought it was funny.
