What a defensive beat down. Mac played well enough but it was the tough D that got a win.
It's game ball time again!
It's game ball time again!
Yup. KVN looked 2-3 years younger and Dugger had some huge plays in the first half especially. He blew up that outside line of scrimmage pass twice and had a really nice deflection on the first or second ball to Pitts.KVN and Dugger stood out. D is on a great run and has played excellent most of the year.
YesThe whole dang defense, but especially the DBs
Good fucking lord
When’s the last time a team has intercepted passes from three different qbs in one game?
That has to at least tie a record for most QBs with an INT in a game, right?
Is that three picks off three different QBs in the same quarter?
I bet three players have thrown picks in a game before. But maybe not three QBs.
One quarter
Oh, that's a good one. There can't be too many.
Edit: Oh, man, one quarter! That's gotta be a first.
Someone playing the Jets?
Your answer:Maybe in the Pro Bowl.
2011: A.F.C. quarterbacks Philip Rivers, Peyton Manning and Matt Cassel threw first-half interceptions to help the N.F.C. take a 42-0 lead.
Gameball to soxhop
That's funny, I did a quick search on football reference and the two teams I looked at were the Chargers and Texans, but I was looking at the '98 Leaf/Whelihan Chargers and the 2013 Schaub/Keenum/Yates Texans.
Over last 26 possessions, pats defense has allowed 7 and scored 13Christ, I over worried about this game. Harris and Rham, as mentioned upthread. And the entire D, who are looking like a legit, dominant unit. I am so excited for the stretch run.
NFLN didI would have chosen Kyle Van Noy player of the game rather than Devin.
Judon is happy as a pig in shit but still speaking in Bill speak.I kind of love JCJ and Judon just getting on the podium and not wasting a second on Bill speak, they kicked ass tonight and deserve to be able to say it
I mean, but any standard, that’s dominance. Bordering on historic dominance.Over last 26 possessions, pats defense has allowed 7 and scored 13
They didn't put up huge numbers individually, but together they were something else. 22 carries, 125 yards (5.7 ypc), 2 rec, 15 yards. Pretty terrific production between the pair.Entire defense. Literally all of them
Harris and Rham. Neither put up crazy numbers, but they absolutely crushed a few dbs and were great all night
Nah man, Dugger is the new Buchholz.KVN and Dugger
Dugger is the new Chung
I’m still unsure who is truly in charge of the defense, but all the coaches deserve game balls. Tonight was a masterclassSteve Fucking Belichick

Except, of course, that Pelissero says that Jared Mayo is the de facto coordinatorSteve Fucking Belichick
6 on the taint? GrossDugger's hits are unworldly - crazy hard, but never with the malice that'll draw a flag. It's an exceptional skill.
Game ball to the entire D, and to anyone that used them in fantasy this week. 0 points allowed, 6 on the TAINT, 5 sacks, 4 INTs. That's a lotta FFL points.
Who are the 8 who dontToo hard giving out game balls. Team is a fucking wagon.
Basically this game was won in the trenches. Hate to say OL and DL, because that oversimplifies things. Much of the defensive wall at the LOS is coming from LBs and secondary guys too. And the TE and WRs (especially) are blocking the crap out of opponents. We're owning the front lines both ways. This is a tough team and a joy to watch.
Game balls for 45 guys who apprently like hitting things.
Lots of weird speculation lately on the whole "coordinator" thing. Mini-me seems to call most of the plays but that's just part of the job. Mayo does stuff. Bill does stuff. Seems that there's plenty of places to spread the credit.Except, of course, that Pelissero says that Jared Mayo is the de facto coordinator
They do too, but they didn't dress.Who are the 8 who dont
