The only problem is thats gonna lead to fans 2nd guessing the replay reversals..theres gonna be plays like where receiver db feet tangle or both are tugging each other..and they call pi on the defence in a big moment or etc

Yeah i understand that but there has been coordinators who have put together cohesive gameplans vs the patriots..the ravens have done it time and time again..so has defenses run by wade the pats have weaknesses you can attack as well..if you sit back in zone like the chargers did you have no shot so gus bradley is not absolved of any blame there..Bob sutton took way too long to adjust to the patriots run heavy approach where the pats went on marathon drives..which resulted in touchdowns anyways. He should not have waited till after halftime to change his approach.

Well thats not surprising a defense that could get sacks and nothing else...pats were so fortunate to face two defensive coordinatoors in consecutive weeks with trashbin gameplans

Another bill Belichick masterpiece I see people saying sometimes oh he's lucky he has Brady. I'm certain it's the other way around the guy is just different .

Chan was a very innovative play caller from actually making Kordell Stewart look competent in Pittsburgh to making Fitz look like a franchise qb albeit for a few weeks ..his downfall though was his loyalty to these average players obviously he had a big hand in Fitz premature extension in buffalo ..and he never really seemed to have an overwhelming desire to work with an elite signal caller when he got to the Jets he brought in Fitzy asap

The only thing for certain is Gus Bradley's gameplan was horrendous. The chargers essentially sat back in zone all game which resulted in Brady being as comfortable in the pocket as I've seen him since 2007 . If you're going to sit back against Brady the coverage better perfect or your d line better be able to generate pressure neither happened hence the blowout . despite chargers having plenty of talent ..gameplan reminded me of the bills 1st game vs Ravens and 1st half vs chargers before McDermott took over the playcalling sitting back in cover 2/3 no pressure getting picked apart by flacco and rivers clearly bills weren't 40 pts worse than ravens.

I don't disagree I'd say they do have more talent overall

Correct . The correlation with 99% of teams who have beaten the Pat's is physicality toughness and dominant pass rushers and very good to excellent coverage on the back end

This is a classic case of being outcoached ..the talent gap between the Chargers Pat's isn't big at all..the Chargers have no answer for the Pat's jailbreak blitzes and defensively they've come in with the wrong gameplan

its the most idiotic narrative honestly..even the worst nfl team ever would beat the brakes off the best college team.. Alabama got torched by johnny manziel a player thats in the cfl purgatory atm much less the nfl.

God listening to witten is like torture

E.J Manuel was never a natural thrower of the pigskin all you had to do was watch his college highlights..didn't even have to watch film to see a robotic rigid thrower with a misleading college completion pct. The fact that Jameis Winston was going to replace him the next year if ej didn't declare should have been red flags. You don't draft a QB in the first round when their incombent is vastly superior to them..and we all know how crab legs has fared in the NFL . Not to mention he was really done after the Jets game year 1 where he continually sailed sideline fade and go routes way out of bounds marrone was enraged on the sideline .

Edmunds doesn't have it today

This week is gonna be really interesting . Belichick likes to force QBs and offences in general outside their comfort zone ..hell spy Allen and probably bracket foster because Belichick doesn't overlook small details this will be a game where Zay and the rest have to get seperation and the run game is crucial .

The throw on the corner route to foster was very refreshing to see..stood tall in the pocket scanned the entire field and put touch on the ball haven"t seen a bills qb make a throw like that since bledsoe?

Romeo crennel comes pretty darn close or worse

tredavious white having a rough couple weeks now..

Despite being successful he was ultra conservative his reputation was definitely worse than it had any business being . Irrespective of his approach the Chargers were not the same team once norv took over they lost their toughness and mentality.

Defensive gameplan today by McDermott/Frazier has been terrible reminds me of the colts game. White having his worst game in awhile

Agreed pretty much how I saw it..pass needs more air will come with more chemistry and reps

To me it seems to me a result of one of the things Josh is working on right now his velocity arc etc on throws..and timing the throw just needed a bit more air under it..that will come with time and chemistry ..so far he's thrown several deep balls to foster 2 were perfect jags and vikes game drop ..same vikes game 1st quarter he didnt put enough air under it foster was wide open for a TD deep.

this. obv beane thought he would be productive enough to warrant the compensation he had atleast shown in carolina the ability to be competent 70 catches 800-900 yards

Great move by the F.O ...talent does not trump desire....kelvin benjamin from the beginning of the year had a horrible attitude that ridiculous spat with newton..celebrating like a serious game vs the panthers in pre season then after week 1 realizing he was looking dumb he just mailed it in..his effort has been atrocious last game was just the last straw.

Wentz is missing alot of throws tonight too high too low..

Accuracy is part mechanics and technique part natural talent..you can't teach a guy who throws the ball wildly innacurate like ej Manuel to throw with pinpoint accuracy because his base natural mechanics preclude him from being that way ...if you want a basketball analogy ..throwing is more akin to a jumpshot...every team employs shooting coaches and players have experts available to tweak their shot etc..but you can't teach DeMar DeRozan to shoot threes like Stephen curry that's where the natural ability part comes in. Allen has relatively good base mechanics but they still don't hold up properly under duress..Allen will never be as accurate as drew Brees but he can definitely reach his " ceiling" as far as being accurate .
