If the Patriots only ran and never passed the ball

jeffusedtobeonwebtv : 11/26/2023 9:27 pm
I think they would have won that game easily. Mac Jones is truly terrible. Zappe is someway better, but that is an awfully low bar.

The Patriots simply gashed the Giants on the ground. And no passes means no interceptions.

(Along with the pick Mac threw two weeks ago in Europe.)

Like that before. Something tells me he wanted to show one more time how bad Mac Jones is as he moves on from him.

The Patriots probably win. I have no idea why they passed so often with Lawrence out.

Why would he do that? To show how bad a GM he is?
You are spot on! Even an old, used up Elliott was gashing the

Will run the ball down our throats. They have two bruising backs that could move the ball. All I can think of is they wanted further evidence of what they had or didn't have with Mac Jones and Zappe.
They are taking a QB. They have to.  
LauderdaleMatty : 11/26/2023 10:02 pm : link
So will Chicago and AZ. Giants best hope is to somehow get the 4th pic and get Harrison Jr. none of these QBs are can't miss.
As long as they kept mixing in the screen passes

with the runs up the middle they would have been unstoppable.
I don't see AZ going QB

With so much tied up in Murray..
I'm really not sure they were honestly trying to win

I have been saying that Belichick is not above tanking

He wants to prove he can win without Brady, so he wants another elite QB.
Would be great

Not saying he's not a good coach, but maybe he's already proven he can't win without Brady.

A lot of coaches might have reached legendary status with that guy at QB.

I agree, they made their bed with him.
The Patriots weren't really interested in winning, IMO...  
x meadowlander : 11/27/2023 10:01 am : link
...c'mon, did anyone expect that field goal to hit?

Ya think 'inflate-gate' is going to do the ethical thing there? Not a chance - playing for the draft spot, losers-win and as far as NE is concerned, they got the job done. Now own the loser-tiebreaker against NYG to boot.
Dexter  
TerpsFan27 : 11/27/2023 10:31 am : link
Just goes to show you how much Dexter means to this team and defense.

I don't think we appreciate him enough. He can completely transform the line with just his presence alone.

I don't see the Bears giving up on Fields. He's improved every year. I think it likely they take Harrison or trade down and add defensive players.
We almost pulled that off with the Jets.

It honestly looked like both teams were trying to win the game by not winning the game

a game ball.

Belichick must be losing his faculties to be pass happy with those QBs playing against bad run D without their best player
