Folk is the hero as the Pats beat the Jets yet again.

Congrats to BB for becoming the 2nd most winning HC in NFL history.

It's game ball time again!

Be honest, it’s John Franklin Myers and Zach Wilson and your running back was good

edit: the kicker too

We should also give Mac a little credit for the first drive coming out of the half. The guy has elite ability to shake off failure.

The entire Patriots and Jets rosters for putting their bodies and long-term health on the line week in and week out despite having Mac Jones and Zach Wilson, respectively, under center.

Half a ball to Mac for not self-immolating

The D - loved the consistent pressure
And also love how the Pats running game has developed into a true two headed monster

And of course, BB for moving into 2nd place for all time victories

Andy Brickley's potty mouth
I think so at this point, particularly since he’s not getting a ton of help from the passing game. He’s got it all, power, speed, vision, balance, and he’s a great receiver too.
I had a really good feeling about him when they drafted him and he looked really good last year. I'm not surprised.

The more surprising thing is that he's not stuck in a strict rotation right now and he's able to flourish.

Y'all sleep through Jonathan Taylor's 2021?

Rookie class has some ballers too.. Kenneth Walker is electric and Dameon Pierce is a truck.

Taylor is having a down year relative to his first two seasons, but given what he’s done so far I’d still probably take him over Rham.

Taylor, Henry, Barkley, Chubb. Stevenson is right there after that group, though, at least IMO.

Rham, DMC, Judon, Wise.
Frustrated with the OL which has been garbage the last 3 games. Right tackle is a shit show. They have to do something about that and now. Mac had yet another game with a glaring mistake (maybe). It looked like he made the mistake on the route adjustment but I look forward to hearing more on what happened.

The thing with Chubb though is he really isn’t anything as a receiver. And I loved Chubb. I’d take Rham over him because Rham is more versatile.
