    GW 15 (12/7 - 12/9) - ***** EVE-LIV PPD, go back to bed

    Michail Antonio apparently involved in a serious road accident. If the pictures of the car I’ve seen are accurate, it looks grim.

    GW14: First Midweek GW

    I think there's a weird dynamic in the PL where its just blatantly obvious that injuries play a massive part in any side's results yet this ends up being downplayed in the media because its not as fun as other narratives. Injuries have always mattered, of course, but as the game has moved...

    Hold the Mayo? Evaluating Patriots coaching.

    My broad sense is that the relative value of prior playing experience (at least at the NFL level) has decreased over time as the job has come to involve so many other responsibilities and skills. Many of the most successful post-merger head coaches were former players (Landry, Knoll, Shula...

    Hold the Mayo? Evaluating Patriots coaching.

    This is a level headed take. I don't think anybody should be losing their minds. And Drake Maye looking like a stud absolutely makes everything else this season kind of meaningless in comparison. As we look forward, however, its impossible to avoid the following question: What is the case...

    Hold the Mayo? Evaluating Patriots coaching.

    This is what I'm not confident about. If Kraft is so invested in Mayo succeeding and validating his self-proclaimed "magic touch" in selecting head coaches that he'll give him another year after this dumpster fire, why would we assume that he'll look at 7-10 and want to make a change? If...

    Hold the Mayo? Evaluating Patriots coaching.

    The problem is what happens when Mayo still sucks and holds the team back but spending lots of money in FA plus a good draft plus Maye’s progression means they go 6-11 or 7-10. Then Kraft talks himself into giving a bad coach another year because “progress” or whatever. Doing anything other...

    Week 13 Vs The Colts

    Losing when you out gain the other team by 170 yards and also win the turnover battle…thx Jerod.

    Offensive depth chart -- down in the trenches

    Doesn’t say great things about the likes of Sow and Robinson that they couldn’t beat out Jordan, despite the Patriots thinking so little of him they’re willingly to just casually toss him on the trash heap.

    I definitely don't see a trade happening but it would be kind of interesting in theory if we landed at #3 or #4 and offered that pick for him straight up.

    2025 Draft: Patriots Discussion

    Everything depends on whether or not Lawrence comes back. They have a lot of winnable games. I would be a bit surprised if they end up with a worse SOS. Tankathan's SOS already calculates over all 17 opponents and the current gap between the two teams' non-common opponents is effectively...

    NFL News and Notes 2024 Season

    We did reportedly kick the tires on him a few weeks ago. Hard to say what he'll be able to offer 11 months after an ACL injury and not having practiced with an NFL team for nearly a full year. He might not really see significant snaps for a while. Beyond his own preferences, I can see why he...

    Pro Football Hall of Fame 2025

    He's been one of the most prominent owners in the league during a period where the NFL ran away from the competition in terms of national popularity. I think he'll get there eventually, because the category is open, there isn't really much competition, and his resume isn't any worse than guys...

    Maye-day Every Day

    I think its a fine number contextually. I'd like to see somebody make something like a context-adjusted INT% stat in which the denominator wasn't total dropbacks, but total dropbacks that were either pressured or in long yardage situations (ie, 2nd and 9 or more, 3rd and 5 or more, any 4th...

    Patriots WRs

    Obviously I would rather have McConkey than Polk at this point but I don't think McConkey was a great fit. The big gaping hole on the team was on the outside, since the two best weapons by far in Douglas and Henry are both inside players and Douglas is overwhelmingly lining up in the slot...

    Maye-day Every Day

    Maybe this was your point but I would argue that these two things are highly related. The pass pro stats look better because Maye is playing at a very high level in terms of getting the ball out quickly and moving in the pocket to avoid hits. Its shocking how often the defense does not blitz...

    Rams game Goat thread

    Bingo. This team needs talent and I really don't see many better uses of $140M in cap space than Higgins. The problem is whether we can actually get him. I'd be delighted to "overpay" for Higgins and Ronnie Stanley for the next 2-3 years while Maye develops.

    Jesus, he stroked that 64 yarder like it was nothing. Edit: And its negated by a dumb defensive penalty giving the Cowboys a first down.
