While I concede it's not the end all be all for evaluation, Milano has "earned" a 30.2 grade on PFF. Even when/if he comes back I don't thing he's a better option than Shaq going forward. Heck, even Dorian Williams is graded 4 points higher. For those wondering, Shaq is the 4th highest rated at the position with a 90.2. Again, it's PFF so take it for what it is. But it actually sums up what I've seen by the eye test very well.

Wow. I found the only other level headed fan on here after a loss😂😂

-Babich I thought had a fairly decent game last night. Got some good pressure. Held them to 33% on third downs. Contained a mobile QB and stopped the run well. Yeah, Diggs had a day...but when he's dialed in he's tough to stop. - I agree. We need something new on offense. Limiting Allen's turnovers has been a welcome focus over the past couple years, but they need to push the ball down field sometimes too. Even if it does result in an arm punt now and then. - Ray Davis is a concern. I have been wanting to see Gore for a game or two for weeks. There really is no purpose to having Davis active if he's getting 2 touches a game. - In the same thought as activating Gore for Davis, I wouldn't mind seeing Kristian Wilkerson in place of someone (Samuel, Shavers) for a week or two. But yes, they really need to buck up and find a WR before the deadline. However, it may be like giving a blind man a Lamborghini. It may be nice but can Joe Brady actually use it or will it sit and do not much like other offensive weapons we acquired near deadlines like Cooper and Hines?

Darn. I was hoping the bmBucs would wear their creamsicles for that one. But I am looking forward to the Falcons and their throwbacks against us this week. I swear the uniforms for the 80s and early 90s were so much crisper. Of course, that may just be me liking the old uniforms from teams from when I grew up. Like the Seahawks yesterday. So much better looking. Yeah, I should know better and just take the next few days away from here. The doom and gloomers win the week. But even in the loss there are positives that will go unnoticed. Third down D was good. Pass Russ was better with some aggressive blitz looks. Stopped the run and a mobile QB. And heck, Kincaid had a great night. Stuff to improve, sure. But stuff to build on as well

Up: 3rd down and rush defense. -Pats held to just 3/9 on third downs and only had 71 yards rushing on 22 attempts. And that's with Maye being a mobile QB which has given us fits this year Pass rush. -Recorded 4 sacks and could have been more if not for Maye making some good plays. Dalton Kincaid. It's amazing seeing him play healthy this year as opposed to last year playing hurt. Honorable Mention: AJE AJ gets a lot of heat on this board (and some is deserving) but he balled out last night. Down: Tre White/Taylor Rapp Not sure how much lower these two can go, but they seem to go further down each week. Neither are starting caliber, and White is lucky to be rostered IMO. Presnap discipline. This is two weeks in a row where the offense puts us in a hole to start with mental mistakes. Joe Brady. Just some terrible play calls last night. Trying to be too cute with some of the plays. YO-YO OF THE WEEK KEON COLEMAN. This seems to sum up his career so far. He will make som nice plays (that 3rd down grab where he out muscled the defender for instance) and show flashes. But then he will have a key drop or do something else dumb. The fumble last night was a huge play.

Well, yeah, anyone with eyes knew coming in New England had a better defense even before the game began. Last night our defense was largely fine. Our offense being undisciplined and turnover happy was the issue.

The defense -Gave up 71 rushing yards on 22 carries. -Held the Pats to 3 out of 9 (33%) on third downs -Recorded 4 sacks -Forced 4 punts and a turnover They did their part last night.

I see someone is having big feelings today.

And many have them have been on the fire McDermott/Beane bandwagon since their third year here. It's not like this year people are suddenly saying it's been long enough. Y'all sound like broken records over the last decade.

That's just flat out false on two fronts. First off, when McD got here we were not even "in the hunt" by Thanksgiving many years. Now we are an almost automatic playoff team year after year. That in itself is closer to their goal. They have eluded and at times flat out said, a Super Bowl win would be great. The the team is content making the playoffs yearly and giving themselves a chance every year. And they have done that. The teams goal of getting, as Beane has said, numerous bites at the apple is being met.

Doesn't matter who. The minute a new coach doesn't run the team exactly how they would have or, heaven forbid, loses a game....they would be calling to fire that coach anyway.

Well, that and that they played Mr. Brightside if you read the posts here this morning. I think this is a good week to take a break from this site for me.

That was a Josh Allen type play

Just hope the cover Step Diggs lol

Now D...STEP UP

PHENOMENAL catch in a big spot.

They can send him home from work early

Time for:

SHAQ!!

Are we happy with Keon, now?

I want 7, of course. But we need at least 3 here. Play smart.

Kincaid over 100 yards receiving.

That was rough

Shocked the didn't call that on Shakir for "allowing a Patriot to run into him" Shocked the didn't call that on Shakir for "allowing a Patriot to run into him"

White and Rapp on Diggs🙄
