How many yards passing up until the final 2 mins of the first quarter? Come on people! The Defense was on the field all game, with virtually no break because the second they made a stop, the offense couldn't do squat and they were thrown right back out there. The offense and Allen in particular is to blame. You cant have 50% completion and 19 yards passing with 2mins left in the first half....period. That's kind of a load of crap they had the opportunity to either put the Pats D in the same situation or trade off with them they didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were on the field all day cuz they couldn't get a stop. Swiss cheese, missed tackles, missed assignments. A good share of their bad game they caused.

TwistofFate Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 2 minutes ago, GG said: The runs were called because that's been the weakness of Pats* defense this year. Unfortunately for us, they sold out in stopping our run game and dared Allen to beat them through the air. Almost worked. Runs were called because Allen was ineffective for 85% of the game. They leaned on the run because they had to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But on the first and last one again Josh reverted back to flat and hot. No trajectory! On the middle one he actually put trajectory on it for the first time this season and it nearly resulted in a td. Josh is still learning. Hopefully the touch comes. He made some unbelievable throws today and some head scratchers. I just feel Daboll is wrong for this team. And having only 2 wrs doesn't help either. It's their own fault. They choose to bench Duke every week? My son and I said the same thing about Duke. Where is he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a new franchise LT, Dion Dawkins is not the future here 2 new WR's new TE new backup RB lots of work to do in the offseason Disruptive edge rusher.

This is idiotic. they got the takeaway to start, and then they gave up drives of 11, and 17. That’s not good defense. You cannot let the opposition dink and dunk their way down the field. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Finkel Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 18 minutes ago, Big Blitz said: 1 pass to a running back is a massive under the radar problem that makes things easier for the defense to scheme us. No threat out of the backfield thru the air in 2019. Why is Yeldon here exactly? Houston killed them with the RB pass. Their linebackers could not cover. We did not even try to exploit them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyDays Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 2 minutes ago, GG said: The runs were called because that's been the weakness of Pats* defense this year. Good coaches make adjustments in-game. Allen was once again hot in the 4th quarter. He missed one throw in the endzone and it would have been a tough one. Other than that we were moving the ball when we passed. Daboll doesn't know when to abandon his game plan. I'm not saying I want him fired or anything, I like his scheme, but he needs to open up the offense in the playoffs. You can NEVER call 3 straight run plays with a 4 point lead against a playoff team. Playing to lose. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the pre-game Irving said, and Mariucci agreed, that defenses have a line at 17 pts - the feeling is if you keep it to that or lower you should win - thought that was interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched KC and Houston both double him and that shut down their offense. On WEEI this week they kept saying that in the absence of gronk teams have been able to double Edelman ... intrerested in seeing all 22 as to what happened here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 So for our brutal 4-game stretch: * 2-2 record * Outscored opponents 77-73 * Lost to top two seeds in AFC 24-17, 24-17 We're so close. If you believe Allen is progressing, you're very hopeful at this point. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCbillsfan Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 The Pats FG drive made it 10 - 3 and chewed up about 9 minutes of game time. Defense looked worn down on the last TD drive of game. Poor tackling at times and Michel gashed them pretty good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Formerly Allan in MD Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 It appeared to be Morse's ankle. Hope after being off next week he'll be okay. That late injury really disrupted play at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
