[Dude]

Starting to like that
“Don’t worry,
Be Zappe” sign in the stands

 

[Dude]

How do you bench Zappe when Jones is ready? Bailey is doing more with the same players.

 

[Dude]

D playing softer now, they deserve a breather, but only this series, ok?

 

[NWPATSFAN]

Terrible personal foul call on the Goff play.

 

[NWPATSFAN]

Another big stop by the D

 

[Dude]

Pats D is delivering big time today. Good to see.

 

[BigKen]

Fifth 4th down stop of the day. Ties an NFL record.

 

[BigKen]

I love the throwback uniforms.

Reminds me of my 20s

 

[Dude]

Fifth 4th down stop of the day. Ties an NFL record.

Defense has played great. Great plan and perfect execution on defense.

 

[Dude]

Zappe is zapping in his first NFL start. Poise, accuracy and balls. Good combination.

 

[Dude]

Pats D has been fast, furious and impeccable today. Clap, clap, clap.
Well done

 

[NWPATSFAN]

Detroit 0/6 on 4th down. Tough to win like that.

 

[Dude]

Fifth 4th down stop of the day. Ties an NFL record.

Sixth

 

[BigKen]

Zappe is 17/21 for 188 and 1 TD. 81% Completion rate.

Couldn't ask for more from the rook.

One INT. Thank you Mister Agholor.

 

[BigKen]

Sixth

That should be a new NFL record. I believe the last time there was five was in 1982.

I'll check

Detroit Lions' Dan Campbell on verge of setting NFL record for 4th-down conversion tries

The Detroit Lions have converted 18 of 36 fourth down attempts this year; the 1995 New England Patriots hold the NFL record with 39 fourth down tries.

Can't find failed fourth down conversions

 

[Dude]

Are you happy for Zappe?

I am.

 

[BigKen]

First Patriot Shutout in 6 years

 

[Dude]

Zappe is 17/21 for 188 and 1 TD. 81% Completion rate.

Couldn't ask for more from the rook.

One INT. Thank you Mister Agholor.

And it bounced out of his hands. The pass was perfect, really, in that coverage.

I’m wondering how the game would’ve gone today with Mac at QB. More TD’s? More INT’s?

Not sure how much longer he’s out but if Zappe wins a few more games will we have our first QB controversy on our hands in 20 years?
