He was overrated his rookie year. He threw the ball to the other team as much as Josh did, but all of his were dropped and all of Josh’s were caught. That opener against the Jets was crazy, and gave Josh a much worse rep than he deserved. Opposite with Stroud. By the end of the season Stroud fell back to earth. The mean is a MF, when you regress to it.

I don't think the lousy passing game can be explained entirely by bad receivers. It just looks terrible by design. I also think the running game is more on Kromer, decent O-line talent, and Cook and that the play calling is just awful regardless of whether or not he is directed to prioritize ball control or ground game or whatever. But I absolutely agree that McDermott is a strong influence here. And it's a bad one. I know the Jets game was scrubs playing scrubs, but it looked like completely different play calling and the TE game, which was never particularly limited by talent, looked more open than ever. Even the WRs made some plays, thought that could simply be a terrible secondary. Anyway, I thought during the game that it really looked like Brady was given some leeway and it was much better in obvious ways.

This is the ugliest sentence in the English language. But, yeah, me too.

The red helmet especially makes me think of Frank.

Seems obvious that Josh is hurt and didn’t play “well.” He also started the season with some deep lows and stratospheric highs. But to say Josh played poorly by Josh standards even when he’s playing better than most quarterbacks’ best games, should be permitted by the fan police. Hope he plays out the season better than this three Tuas level and hits at least a one and a half Herbert because 75% Josh can’t carry this team far enough.

It’s not just that a bad kicker misses extra points, it’s that you don’t want to go into overtime with that kicker. Also, I think firing Brady now gives Kromer a chance to call a better game and maybe add a play or two. I see no advantage to having Brady in the booth for continuity.

None of you bothered to call me after I tuned out a half hour ago! No forgiveness.

I agree entirely which is why I said "I think fans over rate those who deliver." My point is that the high arc pass is memorable. Even when Tua underthrows Tyreek and he has skid his heels like a cartoon, it looks like a great pass. Pure aesthetics.

I personally think the high arcing long ball "rainbow" pass is the most satisfying to watch play in football and Josh just can't or wont throw those. Maye can and often does, Russ was maybe the king, and even Tyrod even hit these early on here. One of the best passes Mac Jones ever threw was rainbow to Hyde in the playoffs and it looked fantastic. But Josh does not and perhaps cannot hit a big bomb like that. Maybe he just flat refuses to put a bunch of unnecessary air under the ball by rifling a fifty yarder like the one to Diggs closing out Detroit a few years back, but as impressive as those are, I still want the pretty picture pass and I think fans over rate those who deliver.

That’s not a typo. You are illiterate. That’s fine, but don’t bs about it. Plenty of opposing fans contribute here. You are not one of them. You should go.

44-24 Buffalo. 34-16 at the half. NE fails an XP in a desperate bid to catch up before the break. Coleman goes 4 for 68 (maybe one more yard, but I don't want to type that.) Cook breaks 100 on the ground again. Trubisky in at 9:00 remaining I have $4.75 in my gambling account and I think that's the easy money parlay I have been looking for.

After four hours call a doctor.

beep, boop If you are going to drop block quotes, try not to drop AI slop, please.

One. One. One. — my “favorite” drill sgt. but also, go Ed!

I really wanted Lee Smith to get more targets. I think Hawes is getting more than Smith, but it's like a free extra player on the field when you have a guy like that.
