he looked much better the last two games vs bills & bengalols

he limited sammy watkins to only 2 catches, and A.J. green to only 2 or 3 catches (a.j. did have 5 catches and a TD but a few of those catches including the TD came from plays when Revis was out as he was temporarily out of the game from a minor tweak or injury or whatnot)


yeah I did see some of the bengals game actually and he looked on point.. this game he wasn't himself, imo


also one of the kids I work with showed me a video of the game last night. hightower was lined up over tanner purdum (jets long snapper) and the ref pulled him back (would've caused a 5 yd penalty).. curious on your guys thoughts before I say mine

yeah i saw the video, blandino says that action is "not unusual" and anyways IMO i think it's karma for last years loss where Chris Jones (eerily the same guy who blocked the punt in the pats win this year) got called for pushing the line into the kicker where he missed a xx yard field goal causing them to get a second attempt at a 5 yard shorter FG to win the game or whatever, where the jets clearly did the same thing (pushing the line forward towards the kicker) last year and didn't get flagged for it

....the Jets game proved to me how valuable Mayo was to the defensive scheme and we were darn lucky that Geno was forced to play a conservative game in the redzone . I am glad to see Brady is again throwing the long ball but the Pats must continue running the ball even without Ridley .

this, he was the leading tackler for the pats before he went down to and it shows, alot of sloppy/missed tackles i saw on ivory & chris johnson

gonna be tough to run the ball without a legitimate RB, hopefully either Gray or Bolden steps up, White and Vereen are both midgets theyre not power runners tho i've heard people say james white could become a 3 down back in preseason

Belicheck has a thing for nabbing players with knee injuries... seriously, though. Acquired LB Akeem Ayers from the Titans (plus their 7th round pick) for our 6th round pick. He had two seperate knee surgeries this offseason.

Also got DE Alan Branch who got a DUI arrest before the season started. I don't see this being an issue though.

Also talks about pats picking up a X wide out... larry fitzgerald or vincent jackson perhaps? not really sure we need another wideout, though. LaFell is stepping up. Dobson will grow up eventually. Edelman is always reliable (had a few mental mistakes with drops last week) and Amendola is finally contributing. Id rather see additions to the defense.

we don;t at the moment

i'd rather see us go after a good RB than a WR at the moment.. someone like DeMarco Murray pls..

we have a shitty ass RB depth without Ridley, basically we have 2 midgets (vereen & white) a special teamer (bolden) and some guy i've never heard of until this year (Jonas Grey) that is our RB depth lolol

Hopefully we get Chandler Jones back after the bye week at the latest tho that could still be a stretch.. thank god the bills & jets suck and Miami has a tough schedule coming up in their 2nd half of the season too.. we gotta take all the wins we can get to seal the AFC east again

very true. i wish we still had blount. but out offense isnt really build for power running. we only need to establish the run so that play action works and i think belichick is fine with that. hes more of a defensive guy anyways

we will win the division the key is making the #2 seed. if san diego can upset denver, and we beat denver, i think we have a bye on lock. maybe even #1. home field = key to playoff success.
