Week 4--Pats @ Cowboys

[Jed Zeppelin]

Random rookie WR from Stanford catching TD passes from Josh Dobbs. Feels bad man, can’t wait for Tyquan to get back :|

 

[Madmartigan]

Yeah just tank the rest of the season. So, keep playing Mac I guess.

 

[Ale Xander]

How long until the Cowboys take out Micah?

 

[Beomoose]

Extra frustration is the pats have had a couple great looks for picks and whiffed. A little more luck and a little less shitty decisions by Mac and this would be watchable.

 

[ifmanis5]

Awful throw to a wide open guy.

 

[Section15Box113]

Hate that call on 2nd and 6 down 4 scores.

 

[azsoxpatsfan]

How long until the Cowboys take out Micah?

I’m actually astounded he’s still out there

 

[patinorange]

Ugh he’s still out there

They don't want to risk Zappe in a lost game??

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

They just aren't competitive on offense. Jones, the line and his skill players.

 

[bigq]

We are firmly in Scott Secules/Marc Wilson/Tommy Hodson territory today.

Hugh Breedlove Millen might be able to help this team.

 

[lexrageorge]

Talking about Stabauch and Bradshaw...would not being the the HOF without the SBs

They were both really good for the era.

 

[rodderick]

Parker wide open from the jump.

 

[Mooch]

Mac totally missed Parker there. He’s completely cooked.

 

[ponch73]

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.

It's self-evident and has everything to do with the not-so-decent year in 2022.

Kraft gave Mac a public vote of confidence in the offseason and invited him to his private summer party after Mac played like sh!t and was openly disrespectful to his coaches. Belichick didn't attend that party, by the way.

He's basically enabled Mac's poor behavior.

It's also mighty weird that Mac got to start the second half. Kind of makes me wonder if Belichick's hands are tied here when it comes to Mac.

 

[katnado]

He's seeing ghost pressure now.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Feels like you have to pull him for him as much as us.

 

[JOBU]

BB is Bearclawing Mac here?

 

[GreyisGone]

He's seeing ghost pressure now.

Has been for two years.

 

[rodderick]

Staubach has some of the best era adjusted stats of any QB ever.

Down by 13 if Mac just kneeled on the ball over and over

This is a game if he doesn't shit himself.

 

[P'tucket rhymes with...]

Not bad for a back-ankle toss.

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

The worst throwing mechanics I've ever seen. How did this guy even QB at one of the best programs in college.

 

[Pablo's TB Lover]

Cool, cool, let's just do the same thing over and over and expect different results.

 

[katnado]

Has been for two years.

Wasn't really this year until today.

 

[mauf]

Nm, it didn’t embed.

 

[rodderick]

The worst throwing mechanics I've ever seen. How did this guy even QB at one of the best programs in college.

Because said program provided him with a pocket 10 acres wide and he never had to anticipate pressure so he actually stepped into throws.

 

[patinorange]

Special teams contributing to the suck.

 

[Mooch]

Sounds like Zappe is warming up on the sideline.

 

[azsoxpatsfan]

Zappe has his helmet on

 

[GreyisGone]

Wasn't really this year until today.

I disagree. Every 3rd down he would get happy feet.

 

[Average Game James]

Special teams contributing to the suck.

It’s not fair that the offense gets to do all the holding

 

[twibnotes]

I’m really down on BB the GM on offense. The weapons thing has been beaten do death so I’ll raise another beef: why not find a serviceable backup qb (an Andy dalton type) when your qb1 is mac jones?

 

[Ale Xander]

Zappe!!!!

 

[Ed Hillel]

No point in pulling Mac. The next QB ain’t in uniform today, might as well run him to death.

 

[Patriot_Reign]

Of course not. But they surely will be questioning BB's coaching over coffee Monday.

Even when Brady was still with the team, when was the last time you watched a Pats game and thought damn BB really put one over on them?

Granted I was sick of his shit long before Brady left, but I don't think he's been an elite coach for years. Whether it be his roster building or game management, dude is just living off his reputation.

 

[ifmanis5]

Zappe is warming up.

[Section15Box113]

Well, I’ll say this.

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

Ah….. no.

Not all 28-3 deficits are created equally.

To be fair, I said “would” (which is 100% true), not “will”.

 

[JOBU]

Thank god

 

[Section15Box113]

It’s Zappe time.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Cowboys should let up a little on D when Zappe is in. You don’t get many chances to throw another team into chaos.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

No point in pulling Mac. The next QB ain’t in uniform today, might as well run him to death.

For the sake of the rest of the team I think you gotta pull him.

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Mac was like "Go get'em, champ."

 

[Ale Xander]

If I’m the Cowboys I’d consider taking Lamb and Pollard out too

No credit for the second Rams Super Bowl?

 

[Silverdude2167]

Because he isn't going to be better than Mac, or well shouldn't be so what's the point.

Come on.

He was elite in 2021. And the team put together wins in 2020 and 2022 despite having a flawed roster. Bill is a truly great coach. But he has been a terrible builder of the roster, that much is true.

 

[Reggie's Racquet]

Any news on Gonzalez? Is he on the sidelines?

That 2019 Super Bowl was a masterpiece of defensive coaching. SB wins count no matter how they are obtained.

Out for game, not on sidelines.

 

[rodderick]

I'm fine with pulling Mac, just hope people don't act all "the media is making stuff up" when QB CONTROVERSY hovers all over this team this week.
