Didnt we use to have some of the best training staff and then a couple years in McD just fired them all? Maybe I am misremembering.

Watson is washed. At best they might surprise someone for a bit running a different type of offense or something.

Well if we win out then we wouldn't be clinching until week 18 either. You are right if they lose to miami or jets because they would have more conference losses. I dont see them losing to either team. Nothing indicates they would. We go through this every week. This past week people were trying to hype themselves thinking the Giants would beat them. Sure, one of those loses could happen but there is nothing to suggest it will. Just like there is nothing to indicate we will win out.

Its the NFL preview of the game. NFL doesnt allow YouTube embeds unfortunately, but you can click it and watch it on YouTube.

Yeah and I said this after the game and was told I was completely wrong. Two other football people have said it too, that I know of.

I'm not talking about the playoffs. I'm talking about winning the division. They aren't going to drop 3 games with their crap schedule. Thats assuming we even win out. As I said, on paper it could happen. Realistically, likely not. The division leader is currently 6-6. They play the Ravens again which they are 1-0 with and the Steelers they are 1-1 with and both those teams play each other. Its completely feasible for them to win the division if they win out.

Not me. I thought and think that Pitts was their typical mediocre team. I said early in the season that Rodgers is washed. They have a couple stars and thats about it. Personally, I don't think the Bills should have struggled as much as they did. As for the Bengals, they have a legit path to taking the division, as sick as that sounds its 100% true. They are going to play hard. Lamar sucked that game but some of it was caused by the Bengals D. I don't think their D is great or anything but they do have the ability to cause a bad play at the wrong time. Their offense is still elite and Burrow will have another week of practice. Higgins will probably be back as well. This is not a team that the offense can take a half of football to figure it out. Its not a team we want to play a close game with. We need to strike hard from the get go. When I say that, I dont mean they need to chuck bombs all over the field. I just mean that they need to score TDs by any means necessary. Whatever works, IDGAF. Just win the game.

I'm not saying your wrong. I actually agree that another position would have benefited us. However, I think they were enticed by the idea of 2 pass catching TEs that could also help block. Its actually part of Brady's system to show same formations with them in that could either be passing or rushing. DCs have figured this out though and good ones seem to know the tells too. All that to say is that I think they actually wanted Kincaid and it wasn't some panic spend like another poster suggested. I could be wrong, but thats what I think. Reason being is that they have been wanting to run the football since McD got here and couldn't figure it out and that was the answer to a better run game for them while also giving them a pass catching target.

Come on man. Just come to terms that NE is a damn good football team with a legit QB. It's ok bro. Every week people say NE could lose the game. This week people had the Giants beating them FFS. Like that was ever going to happen. I'm not going to sit here and say they won't lose another game but they aren't going to dump 3 games. Miami may have had a little streak but in years past we all know Tua and the fish dont play well in Dec/winter months. The answer is that on paper, no it isn't out of reach. Thinking logically about it is another story.

Two wins are not guaranteed to get us in. There are some scenarios where 10-7 doesn't work for us. Depends on other teams and I hate that. I'd say 3 wins to be safe.

I mean, they gotta do what they gotta do. If he is injured then he is injured. Not a good time for it. About to face an elite offense. Coverage will have trouble as it is. We have pretty much zero pass rush when he doesn't play.

People really underestimate how good Edelman was. Dude was a tough physical receiver that consistently found space to get open, had good hands, and was a great YAC guy. Maybe he isn't a HoF player but he is highly underestimated. In his prime, he would be a clear #1 on this team and no one would be even close.

Especially in run defense. They have been much better with Bernard off the field. He was excellent last year. Dunno what the problem is this year. Maybe just hampered by injury. I dunno, but his play does not meet his expectations this year. The defense was almost instantly better when he went out against HOU and that continued against PITTS.

Could be an indicator that Bosa is out.
