I still enjoy it. Sure I would more if McD wasn’t here and we did a better job building the trenches over the last 5 years…but it’s still fun.

Agreed, but that overall body of work against them from McD is still disappointing, but much moreso if we lose on Sunday. That was mostly my point there. There isn’t some kind of talent disparity this year to be “ok” with going 0-2 against them in games with basically the season on the line. And we have the better QB. 0-2 vs them this year with the stakes and QB situations would say a lot unfortunately.

He’s 2-7 overall, the wins count but they were also in the one year NE sucked. More importantly if we go 0-2 vs them in a year where we desperately needed to just split while we have the better QB would be an atrocity.

How does that make me a Pats fan? By wanting to have a coach that can actually beat them? I would argue that Pats fans would be ecstatic to see us keep McD long-term.

Ugh I can already see the excuses for McD if we lose this game

So bizarre. Especially the Dawkins thing, he's been horrible. And Edmunds, wow.

We’re actually one of the oldest teams in the league

This is the case for any good team. The best teams can still win when they’re the hunted. We’re not in that group unfortunately.

Unless they know that we know that they know

This. Haha I didn’t read the whole thread before I just posted but I guess this angle is already being discussed

Does Cole realize that by him believing and acknowledging that he may not have gotten tested if he just got vaccinated, that he’d probably be playing and helping his team in the biggest game of the year if he just took a shot? Maybe he should have done the unselfish thing and just got vaccinated. He could still voice his opinion on it, but he could’ve played.

We’re almost just daring the Panthers to come back and win this

I don’t get it. Also the lack of quick slants, at least 2 of them would’ve been wide open there.

He’s got the arm to chuck it out of bounds there, he’s just gotta throw the ball, those are such bad sacks

Yea I’m still fine with Brown, he’s still probably the best blocker on the line

I like Gabe a lot, we need to get him more targets

Yup, a miss by McD. Not that surprising.

A good coach would’ve ran one more quick play with 5 secs left

Is it a specific strategy we have to not set the edge?

That’s what he should do…lets see if he actually will

2 really nice drives in a row mixing in the run with quick plays getting the ball out early…who knew!

Only we could hold and still lose like 5 yards

We need to put up points, the Panthers are going to go for it a ton today

This team was so much more fun to watch last year

McDermott is the HEAD coach. He’s ultimately responsible for all facets of the team. Not only did he choose by his own volition the coaches you believe are the problem, but he has the authority to change anything he wants. The issues of the offense, no matter what avenue you want to take to get there, is his responsibility.
