10/10 Game Thread: On to Houston

[molsaniceman]

this may help

Texans placed RT Marcus Cannon (back) on injured reserve.​

Cannon has a disc issue that has caused sciatica. He'll now miss at least three games while on injured reserve. Charlie Heck will start in place of Cannon. The loss of Cannon is a slight downgrade for an offense that no one was targeting in the first place.

Time for Bill to go shopping. He's got 24 days to clean up and polish the OL.

Tomorrow will certainly tell us and everyone else whether the Patriot OL back ups are even NFL back ups. If they keep it together and Mac can throw and the backs get more than -1 yard, they could be an answer. They won't be playing the Bucs defense.

 

[Carnzo]

How about starting Hoyer until their defense gets tired?
Sacrifice for the good of the team.

Patriots declared RG Shaq Mason, TE Devin Asiasi, CB Jalen Mills, CB Shaun Wade, DE Ronnie Perkins, and RB J.J. Taylor inactive for Week 5's game against the Texans.​

The Patriots will be down four of their five starting linemen, as we gleaned on Friday. More interestingly for fantasy purposes, J.J. Taylor's fumble against Tampa Bay appears to have put him in the Belichick doghouse, with Rhamondre Stevenson taking his spot as an active today. Wade was concussed in practice this week. Joejuan Williams is the likely replacement for Mills in the starting lineup at corner.

Todays heros: Cajuste and Stevenson!

Here we go with the defense not being able to stop and tackle anyone!

We as Pats fans could be in for a very long season

 

[BigKen]

Please, please , please get rid of Folk.

Kicking can not be a continuous reason for losses.

 

[BigKen]

I'm also sick of fumbles. It's becoming apparent that Damien Harris has very poor arm strength. Looks like the Patriots have solved a bad OL but piss poor play by McCourtney on the TD pass where he actually ran past the WR and out of bounds to take himself out of the play.

Sit Harris for the next three weeks, get rid of Folk and wake up the defense on the way to the game and not after the first series.

3rd and 16 and they Texans almost pick it up and going for it and most likely getting it. This D is pathetic, can't tackle.

Honestly... right now does anything think Kraft will say this is acceptable? Heads roll?

 

[BigKen]

I'm sorry. This rebuild is proving to be repugnant.

The problem is that we will all be getting excited in April when the draft arrives and all we can think about is being in the top five picks and how BB will fuck it up.

 

[redseat]

Meyers all you had to do was catch that. It was a PERFECT pass... That play and Harris fumble...

 

[NWPATSFAN]

What a shame as the kid is having another nice day at QB.

Time to fire BBs kids. The D is pathetic minus Judon. McCourtey needs to go.

 

[cheerupcharlie]

Go Folk! Team MVP again. Let's get rid of him for a missed Extra point. Gostkowski missed several. And wasn't nearly as consistent of a FG kicker Folk has been for us. Missed a fucking 56 yard FG in the pouring rain by inches. Yeah.... he's costing us games. Jesus......

 

[redseat]

and that's the ball game

 

[cheerupcharlie]

Lmao! Yeah.... let's cut Folk.

 

[cheerupcharlie]

Definitely cut Folk. One of the few good players we have.

He is not a reliable kicker. When you cannot trust a kicker to kick an extra point indoors, that's not a "good player".

Pats get lucky and Fairbain misses a 56 yarder. good field position and a chance to tie this one up.

Time for the defense to "Do your job".

One of the dumbest things I've ever read. He saved this team. For someone who has coached and been around football his whole life.... you don't know much.

 

[cheerupcharlie]

get rid of Folk

Actually, this is the dumbest thing ever posted on here.

Folk. Once again is the team MVP.

Todays heros: Cajuste and Stevenson!

Turns out it was Folk!

OL actually did fairly well all things considering... Defense besides Judon... Not so much
