MWil23 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Let's see: The Browns were 0-16 this year. I adopted the Bills last round, and they lost, moving me to 0-17 on the year. I'm going to do what's best for the NFL. GO PATRIOTS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mossburg Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 All the Patriots do is get bye weeks. Might need to only win 3 playoff games (I'm assuming the Steelers show up competent again) to win 2 Super Bowls. Holy crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply because I need the Patriots to lose, so the Texans can interview Nick Caserio. So I approve this message, even if it's against the Titans...

Broncofan Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 The only 2 home losses for NE were facing mobile QB with good OL play that day (or bad NE DL play) where the coaches let them loose and a pass rush that stifled Brady and a D that could neutralize Gronk TEN has 2 of those 3 elements on O. They have the pass rush and could in theory put Byard on Gronk. I don’t see Mularkey going with a free wheeling game plan though. That’s the big problem I see on TEN’s side. BB with 2 weeks to prepare is the other major problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does Tenn run a zone scheme or man? BB really only has 1 week to prepare for the Titans. 1 extra week for self reflection, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man D is the only thing that has any hope but usually needs strong front 4 pressure in conjunction. Failing that then TEN letting Mariota loose is their major hope. Which with Mularkey at the helm...man I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the bills games with Charley Clay going off. IDK why the Titans don't run the spread more with Mariota. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spread formation RPO would be their best option to use all 3. Knowing B.B. likes to take out the main weapon wouldn’t surprise me to see Mccourty on Walker though. That’s where being unpredictable is necessary on O. Mularkey’s style really worries me in that regard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're the better team but hardly an all time great team where this would be a historic upset. It would be a historic upset. They’re 13.5 point favorites.

RIP Titans You know before I saw this post, I really was wondering if Brady was motivated to win Ring #6 at 40. I mean, I thought he was just going to roll over for us and let us win. But seeing this...seeing this confirms that the 5 time Super Bowl winning QB is truly motivated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
