You play to win the gameWhatever the hell Todd Bowles is doing with these playcalls, it seems like he's trying to lose.
Anything that risks a return for 2 the other way is lethal there. Going up 3/4 doesn't matter with the time left. It's rare but that is the right call given the kicker injury.Why not try a run?
Has anyone in the NFL actually returned a blocked XP?Bucs cover on the Texans’ kneeldown on the 2PC.
Kicker is hurt. Not worth the risk.Has anyone in the NFL actually returned a blocked XP?
they don’t have a kicker but I think this has happenedHas anyone in the NFL actually returned a blocked XP?
I mean, not the current iteration, but, uh, obviously "never, ever EVER" isn't quite right.Tank Dell, making plays.
The Patriots never, ever EVER have players who do that in big moments.
When was the last time the Pats had a young WR who did anything? It's been years.I mean, not the current iteration, but, uh, obviously "never, ever EVER" isn't quite right.
Yup. Bad call.Tough call against Carolina. Didn't hit him in the head.
I mean, if they had won, we'd be talking about some of the really nice plays that Douglas - a rookie WR - made today.When was the last time the Pats had a young WR who did anything? It's been years.
You see these guys come out of nowhere and do great things. Josh Downs. Tank Dell. Jordan Addison. Puka Nakua. Zay Flowers.
They didn't win because their offseason WR signing had a ball go through his hands for an INT and it ended the game.I mean, if they had won, we'd be talking about some of the really nice plays that Douglas - a rookie WR - made today.
No disagreement from me on this. I was just responding to your specific point about rookie WRs on the Pats not making plays.They didn't win because their offseason WR signing had a ball go through his hands for an INT and it ended the game.
That's the point. Games are won on the margins. The Patriots USED to win on the margins. Now, every major play in the 4th quarter by the offense fails. Can't get the feet in. Can't make the catch. Ball goes through the hands. Dumb INT by the QB.
Agree. It got ripped back out after he was down.Weird, Swift pretty clearly recovered the ball and was down. Should still be Philly’s ball.
Also its the 2023 NY Giants. They may be even more of a schedule win than the NE Patriots at this point.New coach smell in Vegas
The Giants are a salve to other teams.New coach smell in Vegas
Zay Flowers did NOT come out of nowhere, he came out of Boston College ... oh, never mind, you're rightYou see these guys come out of nowhere and do great things. Josh Downs. Tank Dell. Jordan Addison. Puka Nakua. Zay Flowers.
