heard on the radio on the way home that Michel has played 23 snaps...... 20 or 21 times he has either ran or had the ball thrown to him....

no wonder defenses have stopped him and the Patriots

Is this McDaniels trying to prove to Belichick about his 1st round pick? Because does anyone honestly believe BB took Michel?

Not sure what you are saying here?

Yeah I believe BB took Sony if he did not want him he would have made that clear to Josh. Sony showed a lot in the toughest conference in college while splitting carries. I have no doubt the Pats were okay with this signing.

Not sure how, he's played one game? That makes no sense to me, and it's still a matter the line being in correct blocking schemes. He had some good runs but if the defense claim they knew that is more on Josh I would think.

And was in for about 23 snaps and targeted 20-21 Times. The D knew he was getting the ball is what they were getting at

Two games, and he's either been handed the ball or thrown the ball every snap he's been on the field...I'd think even the dumbest scout in the world would be able to pick up on that tendency...

Didn't think anybody was saying it was Michel's fault he's being targeted every play he's on the field. Can't imagine how that's being translated into blaming Michel.

If Michel is on the field then the D knows who will get the ball.... Simple as that... All I am saying... Or at least that's what I am thinking they were trying to say on the radio the other day

Not blaming Michel at all.. Not what I was getting at... Radio was talking about it and how the defense could just focus in on him because basically except for about 2 snaps while he was in he in some way got the ball

Play calling sucked. Blocking schemes were totally ineffective. Brady sucked. Coaching sucked.
Help me out here, was there anything we did well?????

Well maybe next time we can ask Sony to drop kick a ball just to throw them off. RBs either run with the ball or catch the ball its what they do

I liked the Sony pick when it was made. That being said, I’m not liking his running style in general. I know it’s easy and the blocking hasn’t been great but if you are gonna run wide you’ve gotta have great speed to get to the outside. I just haven’t seen that from him. I know it’s early but it just seems that the plays they call don’t fit his style of running.

This is IMO exactly why he is getting so many touches. We have to remember he was injured for the pre-season and start of regualr season. The team is likely still developing plays that fir his skill sets. Me. I like the pick, I really dont' think Rex is the answer at RB, I feel a combination of Michel and White are the future.

Uh... do you honestly believe McDaniels gets to overrule BB in the war room on their 1st round pick? lol

Yup.

And sometimes when a RB is on the field, the QB throws to a WR.
Or a TE.


But not likely when Sony Michelle is on the field.
