Iron_man Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 I saw the first half of the game which was nice and I was surprised O'Brien didn't use one of his 3 time outs near the end there. The second half I saw the Texans first possession where they got shut down. Then I had to go. Glad to see we pulled it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CP3MVP Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 The offensive line played WAAAAY better than I expected against that front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second half was a bit ropey - for some reason Cannon left and Waddle came in. Constant chips on Watt as was expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBLIII Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 The defense played well, the offense struggled at times. We need Michel out there next week as Hill is probably done for the year and Burkhead hasn't impressed. The 3 turnovers were way too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nex_Gen Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Player Of The Game goes to Gilmore. He's really come onto his own since he got comfortable in the system here. Honestly the offense did a lot better than I thought they would. Then again, the Pats matchup very well against the Texans with our TE/RB group. The Patriots will struggle when teams force them to rely on their WRs (sans Edelman). The defensive front is much improved as expected. A ton more versatility and depth up front. Next week will be a HUGE test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter2_1 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Was Burkhead bad, or was there just a lack of holes? I can't tell without A22 footage, but it seemed Hill had more joy on fewer carries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter2_1 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Gronk would get the game ball from me. Followed by Gillmore, Brady and Dorsett. KVN made a couple of plays in the backfield too. Coach of the game would probably go to Dante for his creative ways of negating Watt yet again for most of the game. ST were bad (punt aside).

Apparition Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 My game ball goes to the combination of Flowers and Wise on the DL. Gronk would get it but for the fumble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoleINGout Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 I give the game balls to, in order: Jonathan Jones, Dorsett, Brady, Flowers/Wise/Guy Jones played well consistently in coverage on defense and special teams. Great to see Jones back healthy now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter2_1 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Yeah if there was one position that I'd be ambivalent about serious injuries within, it's the RB corps. (Michel not included). Forgot how good Flowers was, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
