Iron_man Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 I got to watch the first 3 quarters but had to leave in the 4th. Really happy with the way we played today outside of the interceptions. I kinda wanted a shut out too but a dominate win is a good win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadpulse Posted October 1, 2018 Author Share Posted October 1, 2018 As much as I want to give all the credit to the Patriots, I do think they just exploited a weakness the Phins were covering up. Their 3rd down conversion rate heading into today was god awful and that trend just continued and killed them. The Patriots designed their defensive game plan around this, covering safeties at the marker and keeping the plays in front of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we'll see in a couple of weeks just what this team really is. Chiefs coming to town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiefs are going to be quite the test. I am hoping Denver's D shows us some glaring weakness to exploit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think getting Trey Flowers and Pat Chung back helped a lot and Hightower and JC Jackson getting progressively into better shape helped too.

SBLIII Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Great game by the Pats. Only the interceptions were kind of unnecessary but I won't complain too much about a 31 point win. Onto Indy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChazStandard Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Before kick off I said a game half as good as the Bengals game from 2014 would be a relief - it was more than that. Hightower looked better, the OL looked better. Even Dorsett looked better. Michel had a good day, ran well, and they mixed up White/Michel play-calls much better than against the Lions. Any news on Gronk's injury yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MookieMonstah Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Defense looked worlds better but I'm hesitant as it was against a mediocre Dolphins offense. Gordon adds a nice element to this offense and with Edelman coming back and Sony playing well I expect this offense to blow up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Third Rider Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Great win! The WRs still don’t impress me but hopefully Gordon and Edelman can change that. The line did a great job at run blocking and Sony and White looked really good out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter2_1 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Positives - Run defense was wicked - Running offense very effective MOST of the time - OL in general, again - Hightower looks more normal - Jonathan Jones actually. Very good, maybe he should start opposite Gilmore. Can cover slot and boundary. - Gordon catches - KVN Negatives - Brady has to stop throwing dumb picks, he's on pace to break his record of interceptions - Hogan still a ghost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These guys, as suspected, need to get into football shape to knock the rust off. It took three-four weeks but both appear sharper already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His Texans pick was tipped at the line, and on Sunday McCain made a great play and then Brady got levelled as he threw the ball. It happens. The Detroit pick was a hideous throw.
