Game #5 Detroit @ New England Sunday October 9, 2022 1:00 PM

Stopped Deetroyt dead which this year is saying something. Sort of.

Didn't look like a limp biscuit on offence either.

The longer Jones is out, the better Zappe will play. Will be interesting.

We have to keep this in mind as it relates to Zappe and the Lions game movng forward.

Look at all of the ones that were cut from training camps.

Could be a diamond in the ruff.

Everybody's looking.
Could they be worse than Wynn is playing?

9. Damn I love the Reds. Never did like the Flying Elvis

I prefer the flying Elvis.

I can play better and will for less, even with a bad ticker.

Anyone notice that the Lions #55 saved Wynn yesterday? Second quarter he gave up a sack by a flag on #55 for grabbing Henry beyond five yards gave the Patriots a first down.. Give the rookie from Minot State a shot and see if starting lights a fire under his ass.

Matt Patricia Downplays Isaiah Wynn's Struggles At Right Tackle

Wynn played at left tackle for the first four seasons of his career in New England but was moved to right tackle during the offseason, with Trent Brown moving across the line. Offensive line coach Matt Patricia believes the Patriots coaching staff has done a good job of teaching linemen to be...

The defensive plan was great and well executed. If only we could do that every week

 

[BigKen]

“I think Isaiah does a lot of things really well for us and has been a consistent good play for us,” Patricia said. “Certainly, we all want to cut back on whatever mistakes that we’re making out there from that standpoint. And, in the early part of the year, we understand there is a little bit of that transition. … But he’s done a really good job of just moving to the other side of the ball, and Trent switched sides also.”

I'm sorry Matt, but your excuses for Wynn is doesn't come close to cutting it.

His biggest physical problem is that he has extremely poor foot speed. His inability to move laterally creates the first problem.
His second physical problem is that he has extremely short arms. That creates the inability to extend and push a defender out of the path he's taking to the QB.
His third Problem is that he can't stop grabbing a defender's jersey when that defender makes a quick adjustment.

Combined, it's a death knell for the QB if an RB isn't staying back in the pocket. When Wynn can get in front of a defender, the RB will become the relief valve on the play.

For some reason, Wynn cannot make the adjustment to the right side and run block. The Patriots' best right side running plays are through the space between Owenue and Andrews. Correct me if I'm wrong, but all outside sweeps are to the left and never around Wynn.,

If there is no one better, then I can understand why BB doesn't sit him.

IMO, I thought Marcus Cannon did a very good job when he went in against the Packers. LTs are the hardest OL to find. Somewhere out there, there has to be at least two hundred guys working 40 hour a week jobs that could step in and play better than Wynn. They played Dov. 1, Div. II, Div. III and never got as much as a sniff.

Patricia isn't saying he's played lights out, mistake free football. It sounds more like he's saying despite the visual appearance he's done what's being asked. Line play is a team sport with it's own strategy so we fans never completely know what a lineman's job is based on the way we see a play unfold.

The biggest part of Matt Pafatty's comment is the unspoken part...

"So, with that said, who will give me a second round pick? A third? A pick, any pick? Anyone??"

Precisely.

You don't bad-mouth a player you want to trade.

I finally signed up for Gamepass and watched the Lions game.
It was not as good an effort as I had heard.
Lions where 0 for 5 on 4th down by my count.
Lions got a lot of chunk plays.
Patriots were terrible in the redzone.
Lions picked on Josh Ueche in coverage.

We have a long ways to go......
