lol, they were going to let the Titans snap it 3 seconds late, but not 4!

Sucks for that Titans coach who got drenched in Gatorade while he was hugging Saleh.

Just a horribly managed final drive by Tennessee. Deserved to lose.

Tangential thought-- Marciano I think this is your music playing but curious on anyone's thoughts as I follow the Ravens game--Shaun Wade came from the Ravens to NE and said the following about NE v Ravens weight training: (This is from something on the globe

“Here, we do a lot of legs,” said Wade. “In Baltimore, they do single legs, single arms, and stuff like that. Here, you do a lot of legs. You bench and things like that, but every day is definitely a leg day here. I see they really want to work on your explosion here. That’s the number one thing. Practice-wise, it’s kind of the same, because you’ve got a lot of guys that are vets and they’re very intense. It’s just probably harder in Baltimore, that would be the little difference. Meeting-wise, it’s probably the same.”

“Lifting’s probably the most different thing, and the playbook, because it’s different language,

What do we make of this? Leg day every day? What do we make fo the focus on single arms in Baltimore? Is leg day every day a way to work on explosivness (and i guess what kind of squats--lighter ones, ones with chains, etc? Any thoughts on this odd little insight into Pats v Ravens training programs?

I wonder if he’s counting jumping and sprinting days as leg days. But I think Soviets and Bulgarians (weightlifters) train the same things every day. The unilateral work is less strain on the body - lower weights - but also more athletic.

Lombardi has mentioned Patriots weightlifting protocol on his podcast before. I think this squat stuff is one of the reasons Guerrero got kicked out of the facility

I'll bet he's counting sprints/jumps as leg days, that makes sense.

What do you mean by more athletic? And if you were training someone to be, for example, an NFL CB like Wade any sense of what kind of philosophy you'd use?

McVay accepts a penalty and makes it 3rd and 14 instead of 4th and 4.

Arizona gets the first on the next play.
