US1 Giants : 8/12/2022 3:16 pm
for blitzing so much in the first preseason game.

might as well just abolish the pre-season games completely then. DC on a new team wants to figure shit out...i don't understand wtf these coaches should do if they can't conjure up any and everything in these preseason games. They can barely practice. LEss preseason games. Cmon already.

Bill needs to shut it.
what did Belichick say that makes him unhappy with Wink?

this is the only quote in the article: "Well, with what the Giants were doing, there’s a lot of reasons for some of the things that we did just to try to manage the game,” Belichick said. “So, just leave it at that.”

Seems like clickbait
I'm not sure what Belichick...  
bw in dc : 8/12/2022 3:28 pm : link
said that suggests he was unhappy with the Giants approach.

Belichick is not soft.
I wondered why BB didn’t call Time Outs end of game

To prevent Giants from running out the clock before the game winning FG? Why not get your team practice in the “ need a score to win with less than a minute left” drill? He must’ve already decided enough was enough, not worth risking injuries, even to bottom of the depth chart guys.

should be happy for giving their OL something to work on.

BTW, I didn't think we blitzed all that much. There were a number of kitchen sink type blitzes but I didn't see a lot of complexity yet.
The Giants only got

one sack so he should be happy. Of course, with him, how can you tell?

Probably took Joe Judge's advice.
Hey what the heck.... He should be happy we gave him Judge back.

And old dog. Meh...
It's pre-season football right?  
Kev in Cali : 8/12/2022 3:59 pm : link
Where the goals are to prepare your team and work on things you want/need to on right?

BB needs stfu, grouchy prick....If he doesn't want to see blitzs, let him figure that out in his practices. It was a game for either team to do what they want with their plays. Nobody complains about too many passes or "they ran too much on us". lol
That was Wink being conservative.  
mittenedman : 8/12/2022 4:02 pm : link
I thought the Pats clearly had a gameplan to counteract the blitzing too - lots of hot read go routes and screens scripted early.

And he blitzed Daniel Jones aplenty.

Baltimore has always been a thorn in the Pats' side so this might be an extension of some previous beef.
Belichick without Brady

Is looking worse and worse very single minute.

Toth029 : 8/12/2022 4:23 pm : link
Belichick said didn't seem too critical.

I saw they blitzed 21 times, but for an aggressive style DC, what do you expect? He's going to get his guys in preparation for the season, too.

Looking worse? Last year mac jones was a rookie and they went 10-7. Mac jones didn't play yesterday. They were bad with cam newton and quickly moved on from him.

are in for a dumpster fire season. If Jets get better play from Wilson and their Ts hold up, Pats may finish last.
Don’t see why they couldn’t just run QB sneaks

They aren't finishing last.

Also, before you guys tell Bill to "stfu" you should know that he didn't say anything of the sort. Clickbait nonsense.
I think the Patriots spent the

I wouldn't call it click bait

They are reporting on the impression that BB gave them ....

As Patriots.com Evan Lazar noted, the Giants pressured Zappe 17-of-33 times, which was over 50 percent of his drop-backs. Belichick claimed the team had to flip the script a bit just to manage the situation with how they were being played in the game.

@ZackCoxNESN

Got the sense Belichick wasn't all that pleased with how blitz-happy the Giants were.

On the Pats' lack of play-action: "Well, with what the Giants were doing, there's a lot of reasons for some of the things that we did just to try to manage the game. So, just leave it at that."

Blitzes Patriots QBs faced in Week 1 of the preseason, per @PFF:

2017: 6
2018: 9
2019: 8
2021: 5
2022: 21
Yes

Wink blitzes.

Bill knew that.
Sy has the Pats finishing last in AFC east

Surprised me. After the Jets? Wow!
