  1. Disagree. The defender has every right to catch the ball. They were both tracking, both looking up, and both going for the catch.
  2. It's certainly not that Tua is a rookie with no preseason.
  3. Really have to respect the culture, and leadership that both Flores, and Fitz have built in Miami. Tua T. couldn't ask for a better situation being a rookie in 2020.
  4. It's often been said that what Belichick* does is to take away whatever their opponent does best, and then adjust their scheme to exploit their opponent's weaknesses. Game planning for the Pats* meant knowing thyself first. How they played was a reflection of how you played, and that made them very hard to predict. Coaches couldn't just watch what the Pats* did the previous week, and plan accordingly. They had to be more introspective. In week two, we beat them doing what we don't do well-- running the football. The Pats* attacked us exploiting what we weren't doing well-- stopping the run. In the end, the Pats* couldn't pull it off in what looked like one of our least impressive wins of the season (IMO). But, this week is different. The Patriot* way was always predicated on being able to do numerous things well. Now, there just aren't that many things they can do. They will try to run on us, including Cam Newton, and hope that we still have trouble stopping the run. We won't. If they pass on us, we'll take them apart. Cam Newton passing to N'Keal "Straight Line" Harry, just isn't that threatening. They'll try to limit Diggs, and take away Beasley's crossing routes. They won't be able to. They just don't have the personnel to defend the entire field, and wherever they can't defend, we will exploit. Could it be that for the first time in the Belichick* era, the Pats* will be, more or less, predictable?
  5. Whatever they do, NFL needs to come up with a one-stop-shop, combining NFL Network, GamePass, and Sunday Ticket. Their current system sucks. Personally, living in the mountains, and having a Roku stick, I've had to open up four different platforms ton watch games this season.
  6. Belichick* probably has every player's confidential medical files, bank account, and credit info, photocopies of their diaries, and if there are any catholic players, I assume he has recordings of their last confession.
  7. To me that Tennessee game looked like our worst game of the season in terms of overall team performance. They all (including Allen) looked like they had been up drinking all night... ... ok, maybe not that bad... but they just looked tired... Honestly, outside of KC, I feel like the Titans are perhaps the hardest matchup for us in the entire league. They're probably the most balanced offense in the NFL. Teams have to respect the run and the pass, and it's up to interpretation which is the bigger threat. And Vrabel is the real deal, as well. Having such a well balanced offense means that whatever weakness you show on defense may be exploited, and Vrabel is smart enough to recognize such weaknesses. Defending the Titans means being able to defend the entire field. There are teams that become easier to defend once they get into the red zone, because the field is compressed, and you can more easily take away what they do well. For the Titans, that becomes the moment that Vrabel exploits the opposing team's weaknesses. If we can finish the season healthy on defense, I would want to face the Titans right away (assuming they make the playoffs, which I believe they will).
  8. I'm actually for this scenario. Not only would I rather we play the Phins than the Ravens, there would be something gratifying about two AFCE teams making the playoffs, and neither of them are the Pats*.
  9. t'd be pretty weird to see an offensive scheme where none of the players were allowed to come within six feet of the quarterback.
  10. That works on my dog every time.
  11. So glad I'm not a Pats* fan-- something I've said for many years.
  12. Dying to know the status of Saturday's injuries: Daryl Williams Tre White's stinger Levi Wallace Andre Roberts AJ Epenesa Any one of those players would be a significant loss. That might be a bit of a generous statement for Epenesa, but he has been making his mark more with each game. And certainly the other four are key players. My fingers are crossed. 🤞
  13. Sarcasm and irony!
  14. What an absolutely bizarre feeling to have been rooting for both the Dolphins, and Jets to win their respective games.
  15. The Jets win over the Rams was a final FU from Gase to the Jets front office on his way out the door.
  16. It would be a fittingly bizarre, and Jetsy end to his career to be fired for actually winning a game.
  17. J- E- T- S Jets Jets Jets!!!
  18. Who wins the tie-breaker for Taylor between Jets, and Jags if the Jets with today?
  19. I've never been happy when the Bills have taken their foot off the gas at the end of the fourth quarter. It always frustrates me. I think this is the first time ever that I've been thinking: "please guys, stay healthy! take your foot off the gas!!!"
