Week 4--Pats @ Cowboys

[patinorange]

I think Josh will be available again soon. We have that going for us.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Personally I prefer patriot's fans who don't gloat when the Patriots lose because they won an argument on the internet.

- a guy who has never voiced an opinion on Mac.

Same. I have been pretty neutral. Hopeful, but not strident either way.

The fucking victory lapping is crazy. Nasty and unpleasant even for BBTL.

 

[dirtynine]

Was there a Gonzo update? Maybe not the game to rush back into, of course.

I got a lot of shit from a lot of people and was treated pretty poorly. Some people attacking me for no reason.

 

[Beomoose]

Mac could have had legit 4 pick 6s in a half to add to a fumble for a scoop and score. Bill needs to show him some mercy and not play him in the 2nd half

This is a league for adults, and Mac's not a rookie.

 

[ponch73]

Well, that's what I mean. People have been trying to talk themselves into believing Mac is good despite the fact he's a noodle arm with horrid mechanics and a ten-cent head.

He's also immensely unlikeable. Too many dubious incidents involving alleged cheap shots. Lack of poise on the sidelines. Entitlement.

But Bob Kraft should take a long, hard look in the mirror. He's enabled this.

 

[ShaneTrot]

Is BOB worse than Patricia? This offense sucks. Mac stinks but isn’t BOB the QB coach, as well?

 

[lexrageorge]

Oh, there's one very prominent Mac Jones fanboys. Guess you missed all the "difference between Mac and Brady are the weapons" discourse this past week.

Jesus sounds like I picked a good time to be on vacation.

Edit: Aside from coming home in time for this game, of course.

Actually, the prominent "fanboys" are all saying that Mac is an unknown quantity because of the team's deficiencies elsewhere. Turns out that deficiencies can occur in multiple positions at once.

 

[P'tucket rhymes with...]

I have never had a higher opinion of Tom Brady than I do today a year after he’s actually retired.

Every coach that has left NE has basically sucked with a couple of decent years here and there at best. No serious winning.

And now the guy who seemed to have all the secret sauce can’t even get them to stop making basic errors of formation and getting plays off. I was like a 60/40 BB guy and it’s crystal clear to me at this point that it was probably closer to 90/10 Brady. Feels like there can be no other explanation

Some of it is the league leaving BB in the dust in terms of an approach to building and running an offense that can win in today's league.

How did Kraft enable anything? Mac objectively had a decent year for a rookie QB in 2021 and has been bad since. That's not on Kraft.

Our new o line coach hasn't made a difference either. Plenty of undisciplined mistakes.

 

[aksoxfan]

Gotta watch the first couple of series in the 2nd half to confirm my suspicion that Mac Jones is not a viable QB option for this team.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Fucking Tom Rinaldi

 

[rodderick]

Actually, the prominent "fanboys" are all saying that Mac is an unknown quantity because of the team's deficiencies elsewhere. Turns out that deficiencies can occur in multiple positions at once.

Are the receivers unknown quantities because the team is deficient at QB? Funny how that perspective is never brought up.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Stevenson still off. Is he hurt?

 

[Ale Xander]

Nice catch

 

[ObstructedView]

Even when Stevenson gets a hole and picks up decent yardage he ends up falling down. Just no playmaking ability at all.

 

[azsoxpatsfan]

Henry has good hands

 

[shawnrbu]

Dime.

 

[rodderick]

Terrific catch, but no one ever makes plays for him.

 

[Dr. Gonzo]

Nice throw and catch

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Rhamondre needs new cleats. Dude's been slipping all season.

 

[BusRaker]

True but quarterbacks occupy over 15% of the salary yet only 4% of the roster space hinting they maybe 4 times as likely to contribute to suckitude

 

[Helmet Head]

That was a hell of catch by Henry

 

[Dr. Gonzo]

Giesieki gave up on blocking on that play

 

[Ed Hillel]

Uh that dude was way offsides

 

[luckiestman]

Is BOB worse than Patricia? This offense sucks. Mac stinks but isn’t BOB the QB coach, as well?

Brady overcoming Boob and McDummy is an amazing accomplishment.

 

[Dr. Gonzo]

Offsides?

 

[OnWisc]

I figured Onwenu held Henry.

 

[azsoxpatsfan]

I’m worried Stevenson is broken (or washed, RBs have tiny shelf lives)

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Mac runs right into defender.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Be nice not to be in third down every series.

 

[Section15Box113]

Well, I’ll say this.

This game would be the Mac Jones Signature Comeback we’ve all been waiting for.

 

[Dr. Gonzo]

Go for it

 

[Ed Hillel]

Keep your head up kid

 

[GreyisGone]

Dude just runs into the one defender. Incredible.

 

[ragnarok725]

Mac needs to step up be patient and throw rather than running there. He had time. The OL has been ok.

 

[shawnrbu]

Dallas burns a timeout.

 

[azsoxpatsfan]

Dude just runs into the one defender. Incredible.

He tried the Josh Allen technique

 

[ifmanis5]

Not good.

CB Christian Gonzalez (right shoulder) will not return to the game, per the Patriots.

 

[Arroyoyo]

I’m worried Stevenson is broken (or washed, RBs have tiny shelf lives)

I think we just overrated him. Not much lateral burst.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Here comes the completion up top to Amendola…

 

[Strike4]

Yeesh

 

[ifmanis5]

OMG

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

Oh my God.

 

[bigq]

Mac is not having a good day

 

[johnmd20]

This is sad.

It is just sad.

 

[Investor 11]

Absolutely nothing on the ball.

 

[Ale Xander]

Dime.

Can’t tell if sarcasm

If a receiver/te has to make a one hand catxh it’s not really a dime


Dear god

DFA him

 

[Dollar]

Dude just runs into the one defender. Incredible.

I'm imagining an alternate reality where Brady does the same thing back in the day and gets destroyed by Brian Urlacher.

 

[JOBU]

Hahaha
