Week 5--Broncos @ Patriots (maybe)
- Thread starter DJnVa
- Start date
I think there was some contact on Cam there as he released the ball, which moved it off target
Harry was in quicksand, did you not see the shitty footwork? But agree Cam's throw could have been better.
The only way they could reliably get first downs given the OL play and Cam’s shaky downfield passing today.
It's frustrating because we played like shit and still could have won, but the team is in a shitty starting position for the second game in a row. Belichick shouldn't let the team use COVID as an excuse, but we can talk about reality here.
It’s not because of that play but there is plenty of evidence that Harry is jag or worse at this level. What is the use of a slow receiver with okay hands who doesn’t use his body well?
His pocket collapsed and it's clear that if he can't get through his new throwing motion he is not accurate.
Another way Denver benefited by the Pat's O-line being mainly second-stringers.
Byrd is demonstrably better. With that one reception today, Newton has broken more tackles as a WR I think.
Folks here blame Harry for everything. It was a horrible pass, one of many, many. He had Byrd wide open up the sideline earlier. Cams passes all day were weak.
Or they pick up the 3rd down and we never have a comeback attempt in the first place.
That play may not be on Harry but he is looking more and more like a bust. 0 catches on 2 targets today. 1st round pick and doesn’t appear to do much of anything well.
I hope Cam is just rusty and not his shoulder is bad again. His throws were iffy all game. The lasers of the first two weeks were absent.
BB after the game said they needed more practice time to get the execution levels up a lot higher.
Everybody losing their mind about Cam holding the ball too long needs to hold up a bit. First, we were spoiled with Brady’s quick release over the years – his ability to throw the ball away with an elite skill. Second, timing and not being able to go through his progression quickly is *exactly* what you’d expect from a guy hi hasn’t practiced and has a porous OL.
Absolutely spot on. He looked hurt, rusty, out of sorts. Absolutely looked worlds removed from his performance pre Covid. Sure looked like a shoulder injury, something else, who knows. Covid has to take a lot out of you even after you have "recovered."
He didn't have any symptoms even when he had it. Whatever was going on with his arm today is concerning.
I’m all for flushing this season down the shitter and reloading through the draft. Won’t happen, but one can dream. We’re entering into purgatory territory now.
Tons of time off. Quarterback without reps. A line on both sides decimated through injury and Covid (one in the same?).
The bills lose against the chiefs, and the pats have two against buffalo going forward.
All is not lost. That's my take. Mostly because I want that to be my take.

Are there meaningful differences between the Titans’ Covid layoff and the Pats - apart from Tennessee having even more sick players? Their response to the down time was to look fresh against the Bills. Admittedly, I could only watch snatches of this on my phone, but the aftermath tells me it was as atrocious as my check-ins suggested. This is a lot of words by me to say, essentially, WTF?
The titans practiced secretly during the time they were supposed to be off for health and safety reasons, the pats voluntarily canceled a practice that the league didn't require they cancel for the health and safety of their players, so yeah
the part where purgatory is really a thing in the nfl and teams expectations don't turn on a dime from year to year
my 02 cents i started to see this defense pressure in the jets game but i wrote it off because it was the jets the first 3 q was great expect for no TD'S that 4th q was almost a all time ckore job
denver is not a great team but Tenn Pitt and TB are top 5 teams denver has a shot to get to 9-7 i told u lock is hit/miss i really think denver can be really good in 2021

I really don’t see it and not because Denver is particularly bad but because their schedule is tough.
J-man, that defense looked pretty damn good. Big win for your team. I don't care how shitty the Pats were, Foxboro is a tough place to win.
lets assume denver loses to kc next week
denver always playes the LAC well
then ATL then LV which with no fans gives denver a good shot
then MIA at home
then NO depending on which brees shows up
then a L @ kc
then Car a 50/50 game
Buff tough def but might be looking ahead or wore out form pitt
LAC a toss up game
LV we alawys played them well at home
it is especially without miller sutton fant casey boye gordon denver defense was too passive is the first 2 weeks if denver misses the playoffs it will be because of the week 1 game against tenn
