Game #13 NE Patriots vs Arizona Cardinals Monday, December 12, 2022 8:15 PM ESPN

[Dude]

We have a new Harris in town! Nice running by the rook on that drive.

 

[sharkymcwrath]

Is Fat Mat calling the defense too?

Even if we go on and win this game, which is highly doubtful now that we trail by 6, we still suck this year.

 

[Dude]

Nice performance by the rookie RBs tonight.
Mac does look a lot better when line gives him a little time.
Good 2nd half.

Apparently one of the equipment team members found Patricia's play call sheet on the turf after the game. When asked about he noted a few obvious oddities.

Front Page:
At the top of the page were the words Bend Don't Break.
All play calls were written in crayon.
The Red Zone play calls really stood out as unusual there were only initials and question marks. WWJMD? WWJMD? WWJMD?

Back Page: The back page was very clear and precise so much to the point it appeared to hand written by a rocket scientist.

Yes when he had 2 + seconds he was on point

I think Mac's temper is more out of frustration with Fatty more than anything. He called him out twice and BB must have said something because things seemed to get better.

Let's be honest................

1. McDermott is not the answer at RT.
2. Brown is not the answer at LT.
3. Strange and Owenue are fine
4. Andrews is okay but just not quite big enough at 265.
5. Rookie RBs are studs
6. Agholor has hands like feet.
7. With a tweak here and there, this defense will dominate the league in 2023.

The first half was a miserable thing to watch. The second half, with the exception of the Agholor drops, was almost fun to watch.

Now carry that second half into the game Sunday against the Raiders.

1-4) The bearded fat fuck is not the answer at O-line coach.
5) YES!
6) I could hold onto the ball with my feet better than that.
7) YES!

Missed most of the game and clearly the good parts (due to DirectTV Stream going out) so I can't really add anything to this except finally a win!

It wasn't as bad as it sounds nor was it as good as it sounds.
It was a win but we lost another WR and had an injury for Stevenson.
I sure hope this punter is really temporary.....

I saw that punter was pure garbage. What did he average like 35 yards a punt?

Which WR? I heard Stevenson got hurt but didn't know how bad

except finally a win!

The team is above .500 and in contention for the playoffs.

Stevenson rolled his ankle. Parker got slammed to the ground and concussed. Though you didn't ask - Agholor found a new way to drop passes instead of his usual alligator arms, he caught it, then hoped it would stick to his shirt (it didn't).

Assuming yesterday wasn't a "turn the corner" game and we simply outplayed a 4 and 8 team like we should I'd rather see worthy teams in the playoff's. If we earn it, great, but to me that would mean winning three of the next four games.

I like winning.
Beat the Raders next week and watch Miami lose to Buffalo. We'll be in 2nd place.
That is something to look forward to unless you are throwing in the towel for this year.
Some might call me optimistic but I'm never called a quitter.....

I'm not throwing in the towel just yet but I've stopped yelling at the tv and have resolved to accepting what is. Being a Pats fan I've learned that there is always hope but I ain't holding my breath this season.

I think it's cool to be optimistic so long as it does not prevent you from being realistic

I guess I completely missed this last night.

Patriots Wideout Clearly Unhappy With DeVante Parker Injury Handling

The handling of DeVante Parker's head injury prompted a strong response from one of his fellow New England Patriots wide receivers.

Hats off to Agholor. He's a better person than a WR.

 

[YankeeRebel]

Yeah I saw that. He was pretty frustrated

I have to admit I was wrong about Agholor.

When NE signed him, I said he'd make some great plays leaving us cheering for him but would also have a bunch of drops. Well I was half right.
