I'm sure I will end up eating my words but I'm not real worried about stopping their run game. Blount is the least versatile RB we've faced this year. Their offense should be a bit limited due to JG shoulder. I don't think the deep ball will be there. He hasn't been on the same page with hogan except for week 1 when there was a coverage breakdown and he was wide open. Typically they kill us with the short stuff and YAC with Gronk and Edelman. With JG shoulder situation that is where I think they will need to be successful. That's where I hope they can get the stops they got last November. If not they will eat up clock, we won't get off the field on 3rd down, and Blount will get 100 in the 4th qtr alone as they grind out the win.

I am worried about our offense. It has been pretty lethargic except for McCoy's great game last week. Now it does not have Watkins, Clay and Salas. Wood and Goodwin don't give me any confidence.

I am hoping and thinking less options might be better for TT. I can be wrong but the less people he has to be concerned with getting the ball could help TT.

I think Wood is ready for a big game. Not sure it happens this week against a Pats D with a couple extra days rest and prep. Wood will have a big game this year.

Good. Hope they put his shoulder on ice.

I think that is a higher likelihood than Brisket going down with his finger. Brisket doesn't need a great finger to hand off the ball. JG needs a good shoulder to throw. Release the hounds! I'm not advocating intentional injury or dirty play, but the truth is a broken player shouldn't step onto the field. Make him test his mental toughness. See if he'll be distracted by pressure.

We should come out with 8 defensive tackles, the Brown brothers playing CB, and Jerry Hughes playing safety. Really phuck with their heads.

if you really want to phuck with their heads, send the starting offence out on the field instead of the defence and have them act like they are on offence or mirroring the pats offence. They will either lose track of the game clock and take a delay of game penalty or will be so confused they can't continue

The Pats gameplan might well be to start JG in order to score a quick 7, replace him with Brissett, and then rely on the defense to limit the Bills to under 7 points for the win. I think that would be a very sound plan.

If we overthink these scenarios, it will drive us nuts. Just get out and play sound defense and make tackles with no stupid penalties.

Pats lost at home last year to a crap Eagles team. With Brady. Because they played like **** and made mistakes. Everyone puts them on some pedestal. They are capable of losing.

 

While not likely. It's not impossible they can lose to a crap Bills team at home. Rex nearly beat them in foxboro with a crap Geno-led Jets team in 2014, if not for a blocked Jets FG.

Rex really needs to cook up some sort of magic stew for the next several weeks on defense if we're going to win. It really doesn't matter who plays QB, we need to be prime Rex...walking around pre-snap, looking crazy and totally without order, and yet getting pressure and having our cover guys right where they need to be somehow.

i like this!

Hit him hard. Take the penalty.

Just not on third down.

The goal should be to hit Jimmy hard and drive him into the ground a few times on that shoulder. I have ac joint impingement and it tightens up and you lose mobility. Forget the pain, once it gets tight you can't even move the arm in a throwing motion due to lack of mobility

Take away the short throws and make him throw it far. He won't be able to

getting to the QB on quick timing routes is very difficult.

We got this. If TT and Rex blow this, Pegs will fire both Whaley and Rex after the game.

So if we lose a game that we're about 6.5 dogs in we clean house?

 

This place is hilarious. Trump would've been the perfect owner.

 

Rex, you're fired!

Whaley, you're fired!

Brandon, you're fired!

Training staff, you're fired!

Forget the 6.5 dog stuff or the win/loss this for this single game.

Just clean house regardless.
