agree with this about 100% especially Shaq again came to play, only thing is he looks to me like a liability in coverage... and that may be why he was limited early... cause in my eyes... this dude aside from that should start someplace. and he has led a hard life out there... with his physicality... he seems worn down...

Nice call on Epi, he did show up for the game for sure I was close to putting him in... but it literally occured to me that I havent seen him really make a play all season the only thing I see is missed tackles and blown coverage

Amen and so sorry for the posters loss, I have been there several times is so hard.

Excellent point if you have field view its different than on TV when you cant really see downfield.

Another poster said that... I saw the pass rush in the first half as poor better in the second... maybe I need to go back and watch and rethink that...

They did better in the second half, he ran for his life in the 1st, but to your point, WR is an issue I believe. Getting open...

Losses like this its so hard to do the 3 UP I am searching here... interested in your thoughts... here goes UP Kincaid - really started to see him featured... nice to see him getting open and catching the ball at one point I felt like he was the only real option. Prater - remaining consistent, doing his job, I do not have the Bass "yips" before his kicks... (knock on wood) but he was one of the few who really did their job yesterday. Deone Walker - another half sack, fingers crossed we have a very good starter in him as time goes on, not perfect, but i see the progress here... glad we picked him DOWN - (where to start) Coaching - Not sure you can start anywhere else, this team in my eyes was ill prepared to play, showed difficulty all day simply lining up and executing a snap from center. I do not feel Brady had a great plan for these guys (and if I am wrong, our offense has some problems) struggled all game to get in a rhythm. Babich again is out of his league, his defensive angles are poor, tackling is absolutely inept, coverage schemes look like fire drills, continues to be a weekly liability for this team... McD presides over it all and deserves the blame for this team being ill prepared. Tre - Sorry Tre, luv you man, but you literally cant cover or at least if you can didnt show it yesterday... Father time is the only undefeated player in the league... OL - hate to group them all but the bottom line was no runs over 9 yards for cook, allen was running all day, and lots of penalties... lots... Players of note Allen - not gonna put him on the down side... but he doesnt get the up side either... Josh needs a cape or this team has a good shot at losing WR are average, Defense is a liability. Josh wore pedestrian clothes yesterday and was unable to make up for the Coaching, OL, and Defense... Rousseau - nice start for him... where was he the rest of the game Bishop/Rapp - literally we need to think about activating Poyer (*ducking*) LOL Lastly, credit to New England whose players get paid too... they play a very good game, made it ugly , won the turnover battle and beat a team at home that on paper is better... maybe...

He was fine, especially escaping pressure... that was really a huge difference... that said... he doesnt play our defense every week, we made Spencer Rattler look great too.... our DBs are amongst the worst in the league collectively...

Matt Milano hurt??? I won't believe it he is an Iron man !

Bottom line Josh doesn't wear a cape and score 30 every game this defense is incapable of anything they are horrid and babichust go Tre is totally cooked Bishop is clueless the tackling is horrific etc etc...

Someone needs to be fired for this horrible coaching just horrific Babich must go dont even let him in the locker room

This defense is an embarrassment Babich needs to be pulled from the booth and fired immediately and get cole bishop off the field and put in anyone but him except Hamlin lol

Of course

This defense is an embarrassment and they are totally unprepared

Make that 3

Dear sweet Baby Jesus please let him be proven right!

Right, force a few 3 and outs and the percentage of plays he plays goes up... that would be nice

You know, I dont know... I know he was out injured early on and McD hates that... I saw him in a few preseason games he was relatively a non factor... I think it boils down too the others are playing better than him and he is a rookie... but I really dont know it could be a lot of things... ...

I think activating Bass from IR would obviously be the first step... you have got to think he should be ready by now and activated... but maybe not... my gut is as long as Prater is kicking well Bass stays and they dont use an activation move... If Prater faulters... then all bets are off.. jmo...

its a nice little soundbite/fact if you are looking to downgrade the effectiveness of the draft... but really what we are saying is that we were unfortunate with Max getting hurt and Jackson is not good enough at this juncture to play... Sure wish he was pushing a vet and showing some spark, but apparently not... this was what we saw out of Epinessa his first year... limited action, needed to transform his body, understand the D etc... not making excuses as I am disappointed where he is at... I was hoping for more... but he wont be the first 3rd rd pick to not crack a lineup early on...

Oh let us hope, we could sure use him...

I am with you... Josh is gonna need to wear a cape in this one... I also get the Pats dont run the ball well... but they have not played this Defense... so I am not counting on forcing them into passing situations unless we get a big lead... hoping for Front 7 improvement though... lets just play and see...

Not angry or miserable and quite honestly feel fortunate to be in a place again I never thought I would see after the Kelly era.. but I do appreciate the concern... truly

I would say.. lets not worry about that and just beat NE... but... I think they will have to make the streak 5 in order to do so... so lets go1

Torn here... but i am gonna believe Bills 38 Pats 35 in OT This Defense will be the death of us... But I hope Josh overcomes their ineptitude... if he doesnt or even plays average... this is a loss..
