I want that Patricia sweatshirt. That is probably the best piece of Pats gear I have ever seen.I want an LGBT reality show. He is on w Burton right now w his son (LB JR) and the dude is comedic gold.
all trueAtlanta is 25th in defense and they gave up 25.4 ppg and they play primarily zone. Brady carves zones Ds up for breakfast.
$44 well spent. Purchasing in the morning. Thank you.
The Pats have only given up 30 once this year and that was to Seattle.all true
the only way ATL can win is by scoreing 34 plus
Matt Patricia will give Matt Ryan the underneath stuff all night.Kyle Shanahan isn't some flavor of the week offensive coordinator running a soft dome offense. He knows what he's doing. He won't be running on 1st down or trying to be "balanced" on offense to keep Brady off the field. Spread the Patriots out, throw the ball, let Ryan be the MVP of the league. The underneath stuff will be there all day.
With all the bullshit ESPN spouted about framegate I don't get why TB agreed to this.
Who is Karim Gar...I mean Denver?and rem they beat denver just as bad as u did and beat denver when they were at their peak
To be fair, they haven't faced an offense like this, or one even close.The Pats have only given up 30 once this year and that was to Seattle.
To be fair, they haven't faced an offense like this, or one even close.
But, if we're also being fair, their defense fucking sucks. If you put any weight into DVOA... It would be better than the Bills D, but worse than the Jets or Miami. So... Yeah... Think about that. Now, I think they're a bit better than that,mouth people smarter than me can probably elaborate.
ATL in week 5 played @ denver and exosed denver to a 9-7 rec denver couild not cover their backs their backs make that offense goWho is Karim Gar...I mean Denver?
One thing I'll say is that regardless of nervousness...the two first games the Pats have played this playoffs have been over quick..and never really in doubt. their defense makes you earn every ten yards... and if you ever get stopped you know you'll probably be down another 3 or 7 points the next time you get the ball. This team may be the most well rounded Pats team of the Belichick era.I think this is the team Belichick has been trying to build for a while now. A #1 defense without any hired guns like Revis, but no weaknesses either.
I think this is a good matchup. Atlanta is obviously pretty far from the "great defense that gets pressure rushing 4" mold that we've seen in the Giants, Seahawks, and Broncos. But having said that, I'm still nervous.
I was going to say how much of a difference ST are, but it feels like NE always has that edge and no one ever gives a fuck. But it definitely shows in the playoffs. Wouldn't shock me if it ends up being the difference in the SB, but it will garner zero attention.
GB has had to play a WR at running back almost all year... and then three of their top WRs got hurt. NE has almost everyone healthy... or will be healthier. Bennett with two extra weeks should be a lot better. And regardless, guessing who will be good each week on the Pats though is a fools errand.Line seems reasonable and may have been tighter if Pats has not dominated tonight.
If I'm Atlanta, I'd want this game next Sunday. Keep this as on schedule and ordinary as possible. But this game is different and there is value in having been there before. And that's with great due respect for Atlanta.
The defensive game plan will be the very best anyone could come up with given the talent. There's the BB game plan for Buffalo that literally is in Canton. The SB game plan against the Rams. Again, give us the extra week.
The more impressive Atlanta effort to me was the playoff game against Seattle. Green Bay was really banged up, and Green Bay botched early chances. NE Is healthier than GB, better on defense, and the game will be at a neutral site.
Point of order:Line seems reasonable and may have been tighter if Pats has not dominated tonight.

Yes, but they also had played the Rams in the regular season in "01.Point of order:
I do believe there was no off week the Rams year because of September 11th.
That is hilarious.Tom Brady has more Super Bowl appearances than I have actual bowls.
The Giants couldn't score against the Packers shitty defense that Atlanta obliterated. Pats would have beaten NYG by 20 plus.Disagree, I think this team kills the Giants.
Pic of you in a 10 gallon hat or it didn't happenI'm going to Houston bitchezzzzz
I agree across the board. Atlanta is tough but I like our chances and am confident we'll have an excellent game plan.Line seems reasonable and may have been tighter if Pats has not dominated tonight.

Too bad the pats don't have anyone like that on the roster to get the D ready in practice.Freeman and Coleman scare the crap out of me. They can run it and catch it. They're shifty, they're fast. They can play inside or go around the edges. With Collins gone, I don't see any of our linebackers being able to match up with them in coverage. Maybe Chung?
They looked like planet eaters against Seattle and Green Bay. So yes, I'm definitely nervous.I think this is the team Belichick has been trying to build for a while now. A #1 defense without any hired guns like Revis, but no weaknesses either.

Atlanta has done pretty well off byes this season as well, defeating the Cardinals 38-19 and of course thumping the Seahawks last week. Atlanta has so many weapons, and Shanahan is such a creative offensive schemer, that I don't know how much the extra week really matters; Belichick is great at scheming to stop your primary and secondary offensive threats, but the Falcons go so deep at wide receiver and running back (hell, the fullback Patrick DiMarco had a 31-yard reception yesterday!), and Ryan is so good at mixing things up, I'd be really surprised if they don't get to 30+ points.Line seems reasonable and may have been tighter if Pats has not dominated tonight.

I wonder if this is something that he has to sign off on? As far as the headline goes.With all the bullshit ESPN spouted about framegate I don't get why TB agreed to this.
Wow, that's a really bold call.but i will say NE has had the best dystany in the super bowl era
Feels like that article needed a few more paragraphs.Good article on Chris Hogan. Probably not news to most people here, but they made a point to emphasize that Hogan is more of a Gronkowski than a Welker.

Have we played a team that allowed 400+ points before in Super Bowl?all 6 SBs Bill/Tom have been part of have been either 3 or 4 point games in the final margin.Only scored over 30 points once (admittedly, in Houston).
