[Dr. Gonzo]

Wow

JuJu no idea where he is

 

[Jinhocho]

Brown back in 2022 form

I switched over to Red Zone so I missed this.

HOLY SHIT WTF

 

[Big D]

Why even bother with that throw to Juju?

 

[Deathofthebambino]

when the value of his franchise starts to dip and sponsors start to cancel and luxury boxes aren’t full the plug is pulled. Who cares about legacy.

The Commanders just went for 6 Billion.

The franchise dipping in value means it only goes up 20% instead of 30% over the next 2 years. Kraft makes more in his sleep during one week, on the value than most people make in their lifetimes.

 

[heavyde050]

No hope for this offense when a first down run goes for minus 5

 

[patinorange]

I think Saints are playing like we played the second half against the Jets. Why fuck around?

Yup, they have gone conservative knowing the Pats can't do anything. Makes our D look better than they are.

 

[rodderick]

Trent Brown putting in a shift.

I guess the salary bump only leads to a week long increase in effort. Dude has a terrible mentality.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Concussed for a throw 15 yards short of the sticks down 24.

 

[Tim Salmon]

This should be the last series for Mac in a Patriots uniform.

 

[Jinhocho]

No penalty for the helmet to helmet

 

[johnmd20]

This offense is literally offensive.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Good punt. Terrible net.

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

He is incapable of NOT throwing off his back foot. He doesn't do that, the ball is there early enough for an easy reception.

 

[rodderick]

Why even bother with that throw to Juju?

One of the few times he has a clean pocket, let's hit the 3 yard drag on 2nd and 15.

 

[NortheasternPJ]

Under 38.5 looking good. 38-0 Saints.

 

[Zedia]

I can’t believe there‘s another twenty minutes of this.

 

[scotian1]

Good protection on that play and a 3 yard pass.

 

[ifmanis5]

Helmet to helmet that they rarely call. Not sure why.

Surely BB has seen enough?

 

[heavyde050]

No penalty for the helmet to helmet

There should have been.

 

[Eck'sSneakyCheese]

Pathetisad

 

[Brohamer of the Gods]

Why even bother with that throw to Juju?

It was actually on a crossing pattern, and he doubled his yardage for the game. That's all I got.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Good punt. Terrible net.

HAHA YOU ARE WRONG SIR

 

[greek_gawd_of_walks]

Go to Zappe. Try sucking in a different way.

 

[bluefenderstrat]

At this point I hope they go 2-15 I guess. Absolutely talentless team.

 

[EddieYost]

Good punt

 

[cshea]

Helmet to helmet that they rarely call. Not sure why.

Surely BB has seen enough?

He was a runner

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Brown back in 2022 form

Good thing he got that pay increase recently for no real reason. Guys entire career has shown that he tanks when not motivated.

 

[Jinhocho]

He is incapable of NOT throwing off his back foot. He doesn't do that, the ball is there early enough for an easy reception.

Agreed.

 

[ifmanis5]

Fire Bill is trending again.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

JuJu up to 14 receptions for 86 yards.


For the season.

 

[ifmanis5]

I don't think I've ever seen a more flat-footed QB. Even when he has time he doesn't lean into it off the front foot. Bad mechanics even in benign situations.

 

[shawnrbu]

JC Jackson’s back.

 

[Ale Xander]

In other news, Agholor still blows

 

[Harry Hooper]

Even if the odds are low, D has to go for a TO here with zero blitz or something.

 

[ifmanis5]

Pats:
Patriots injury update: WR JuJu Smith-Schuster (head) and OL Mike Onwenu (ankle) have been downgraded to out.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Bring me a safety to avoid the shutout.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

He was a runner

Yeah, the helmet to helmet and defenseless receiver rules are different.

 

[patinorange]

Good thing he got that pay increase recently for no real reason. Guys entire career has shown that he tanks when not motivated.

He's got them over the barrel. A fat, lazy, unmotivated Trent Brown is exponentially better than anyone else on the o line, with the possible exception of Andrews.

 

[Ed Hillel]

JOhnnu Smith having another very good game btw

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Spin the dial on them here, might as well

 

[heavyde050]

3rd and 8 - gjge defense.

 

[Ed Hillel]

lol run for a first

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

JOhnnu Smith having another very good game btw

Good thing we have his brother, Jonnu Smith-Schuster

 

[Mystic Merlin]

That was a give up play, and it converted

 

[JOBU]

Fuck off D

 

[Helmet Head]

I thought Mac Jones looked good the first 2 weeks. They didn’t ask him to do much against the Jets and then last week just broke him and now he is gone and has given up. Not sure why they are playing him at this point.

 

[BigSoxFan]

Hopkins 7/115

The guy Bill could have easily had

Punishment?

 

[The Social Chair]

This is it exactly. Kraft is running a business. He’s not going to watch his investment tank so BB can catch Shula in 5 years.

100%

It would be insane to let Belichick dump Tom fucking Brady for football reasons, and then let Belichick stay around for "legacy" when the franchise is starting to feel low rent, d-list again.
