Want NE to lose, but Romo is such a Ball licker in this game, I want Pats

 

Pats are the best choice. They're not a threat to the division and unlikely to make the playoffs so a win hurts their draft position and puts the dak ballwashing on hold for a week.

Lamar was not winning 75% of the time here in Buffalo.  It works in Baltimore because they have the perfect OC and really built around his ability.

 

Is it possible to play other playoff teams in the regular season.  Yes, yes it is.  Likely most teams don't play that many over the regular season.  2 or 3? 4 at best? Baltimore is usually one of those defenses.  Again, it has nothing to do with whether or not Lamar is a very good pocket passer.  He is a very good player.  I just don't think he is all that as a passer.  

 

My original comment was there aren't too many QBs that cant make most of those throws. He has a simple passing design offense.  It is highly helped by the fact that most defenses cant defend against him running the ball.  He doesn't have to make many reads.  Andrews and Brown have 2 to 4 yard cushions most of the time they catch the ball.  Most of those throws are between the numbers  within 10 yards of the LOS.  Go ahead debate it with something else other than record.

 

Today he was 19/27. 10 of those completions were in the middle of the field. 6 of those completions were less than 10 yards. Another less than 15.  He also had 2 ints there. 5 more completions were at or behind the LoS. 3 more of those completions were 5-10 yards.  That leaves 1 completion.  Middle of the field for 20 yards.  Last week the area of the field remained the same.  He just had more completions.  It is literally his MO.  Throw to the open guy in the middle of the field.  If the guy isn't there then either buy a little time and still throw practically straight in front of you to a wide open guy or take off running.  That is what he has done every year and its no different this year.  Sure he might have a game here and there that he throws to the numbers instead.  There is nothing special about his throwing the football.  There just isn't.  

So it’s the OC? You realize Greg Roman was the Bills OC under Ryan? You can’t know what he would have done with QB like Jackson, or what Chan would have done.

 

Last year the Ravens played 7 regular season games against playoff teams.

 

The record is all that matters.

 

Brady has made a living passing over the middle. Passing over the middle is the single most important part of a QBs game.
