This is very clearly a strategy Brady uses when he cant move on offense. He just launches it 50 yards down the field into double coverage and like 1/3 of the time he gets a PI call in his favor. The two calls yesterday seemed legit so dont take this as a refs love the Pats thread. I am just pointing out that this is clearly their strategy and they probably coach the receivers to make sure contact is made trying to get to the ball.

Everyone said “karma” when he did not get a bonus. Guess what he made all pro and got it anyway. Everyone said “Karma” when he got knocked out. Guess what his team won and he will play in the sb. There is no such thing as karma.

Lots of people will say the Eagles have a chance but they will lose the game.

I like him, does that count? And Swartz did take the Lions to the playoffs.

This reminds me of the calls for Kelly, Reed and Thomas to be the coaches. It does not work that way.

What I dont think was talked about much there was that he may not have been down by contact. I never thought they really slowed it down to go over that. In other words, yeah he was touching the receiver but he never got posession of the ball til he was standing which means he was NOT down by contact. That could have been a TD the other way. I do not think it was a conspiracy there though, just too fast of a play.

no he would suck as a coach

The nfl did give the pats a penalty.

I’ve seen the ending before. It’s sucks.

To consistently compete you need a great qb. List the teams over the last couple decades who have lots of playoff appearances and then point out which ones have an average qb. You can can make a run here or there with an average guy but to consistently compete late on the playoffs requires a franchise qb. Nonsense is anyone who would dispute that.

Can’t get overly conservative Jacksonville. Keep me guessing.

The jags have a lot of talent.

No there is no "connection". Only in your head. OJ Simpson is a POS, do you hate the Bills organization too?

some people dont get it though no matter how much their head is beaten right? All we need is a test to filter out those who will get CTE and those who wont. The ones who wont can play football and we can put all the rules back in and go back to enjoying people get bashed apart?

Soccer players get CTE from heading the ball.

I never watched him play much but from looking at his stats I would rather stick with Tyrod. I guess I just dont see the excitement about him. Again I did not actually see him play but the output is not that great.

I think they will look at options like Cousins, Alex Smith and Keenum but if they dont find an upgrade I could see them sticking with Bortles. I think they will try hard to get a veteran. I dont know their cap situation but with tall that talent its a matter of time before it blows up.

Whaley was the guy to let go if you can get in your time machine. Part of what makes Marrone a decent coach is that he is willing to stand up for what he things is right. I am sure not always easy to get along with but he offered decent leadership. He is also more conservative that I would like my coach to be.

He treated his teammates like crap by not giving it his all. Respect is earned not given.

what a punk

Did he quit again?

Being honest here, I was disappointed when he decided to leave, I thought the team was going in the right direction. But that is water that went under the bridge a long time ago, time to move on.

The question had a presumed answer and it was a dumb.

This is the dumbest thing I have read since the BBMB...congrats. You take what I said and assume I never played in a playoff game, pure stupidity.

I agree with a lot of what the OP said. McCoy is a gamer and a good teammate. However throwing a helmet does nothing for me. A guy who throws his helmet does not necessarily care more than a guy who controls himself.
