    Game 2, Miami -- Silver Linings

    I might need @BaseballJones to fill this one out, as I'm not sure what I can say, but I'm committed to the idea that even in losses, there are silver linings, so I'll start. Christian Gonzalez. Two excellent games in a row going against the elite of the NFL. Brendan Schooler. It's a copycat...

    Week 2 - Miami: Let’s Groove Tonight

    I can’t decide if someone in concussion protocol starting a game thread is good mojo or bad considering our OLine and Tua and their respective concussions.

    Week 2 vs Dolphins Pre-Game Discussion and News

    Back when Hill was with KC, they almost always used Jon Jones on him. At that time, (that) Jones was arguably the fastest player on the team. Now maybe Marcus has surpassed Jon in that regard, but I think I would want Jon's experience -- both generally and against Tyreek -- to take the lead role.

    Week 2 vs Dolphins Pre-Game Discussion and News

    I’d add Parker to the list of guys who were late moves to OUT last week who could make a difference coming back.

    State of the AFC East

    I expect that the Pats will double Hill with JonJones and a safety. Then Gonzo Island against Waddle.

    State of the AFC East

    Rankings by unit? Offense: Miami Buffalo NE NY Defense: NY NE Buffalo Miami Specials: Probably too early to tell. But Bailey punting for MIA seems questionable. OTOH, Marcus Jones is probably the best PR while the Jets earned a win via specials last night. So ???

    2023 Jets: Hello Darkness Retreat, My Old Friend

    If I’m reading Spotrac correctly, Kyler has $97M in dead cap. Not sure what changes if he’s traded.

    Pats sign JuJu Smith-Schuster

    So JuJu is the new N'Keal?

    Zeke to Foxboro: 1 year, up to $6 million

    I felt like Zeke got a lot of PT in passing situations to be kept in the backfield of pick up blitzes or simple rushers coming free. I think he did a phenomenal job with this. The most consistent backfield blocking I've seen from a Patriot RB since Kevin Faulk.

    Game 1 Philly, goats

    That didn’t end well for Parcells. But was ultimately very good for the Pats and Belichick.

    Pats Round 2 Pick #46: DE Keion "Let's Party" White

    That clip was impressive as it showed White's ability to go left, right, and bull-rush.

    Game 1 Philly, Silver Linings

    Considering how he gets abused around these parts, here's a special silver lining shout out to Miles Bryant who had some big hits yesterday. (To say nothing of the leveling that Peppers put on Hurts to force that key fumble.)

    Game 1 Philly, Silver Linings

    They held Brown and Smith in check -- 14 receptions for 126 on 20 targets isn't nothing, but that's one of the best tandems in the league. And they held Goedert -- TE being a common Achilles Heel for this team -- to 0 catches on 1 target.

    Game 1 Philly, goats

    No false starts yesterday. One DOG that was admittedly costly. Still a net improvement on last year.

    Pats Round 2 Pick #46: DE Keion "Let's Party" White

    Both specialists and Douglas are also looking strong. And Mafi and Sow seemed pretty good yesterday as well.

    Game 1 Philly, Silver Linings

    I’ve often felt like these post-game discussions should have both sides noted. So I’m using this game/season as an experiment to see if it’s worth it. In yesterday’s loss, as in many games, there are a few good things, silver linings, that seem worth noting. To my eyes: Offensive...

    Chri Chris Jones dislikes this post.

    Game 1 Philly, goats

    Who was the better QB yesterday? I think it was Jones. And the guy on the other side was 2nd in MVP race last year IIRC and is considered a favorite for this year.

    Week 1 vs. Eagles: A New Beginning

    I did think that watching the Chiefs game, and even paused the feed. He was dead-on, or super-damn close, on the two plays I checked. Trent Brown does this a lot as well.

    Patriots claim QB Matt Corral (who is now MIA)

    If there is no emergency 3rd QB, can the 2nd QB be a PS elevation?
