Day to Day
We've watched the Patriots play three games.
Honestly,
1. We expected them to be much better than they are playing.
A. Offensive line is terrible. Especially the left side. Wynn cannot handle 6'3" and taller Edge rushers. Owenue read too many of his platitudes and is getting mauled.
B. BB wasted money on Agholor and Bourne. They are just not big enough or fast enough to get separation and instead of TDs, the Patriots are kicking FGs.
2. We expect way too much from a rookie QB who doesn't have the support he needs to be successful
3. Looking at the remaining schedule, the Patriots will be extremely lucky if they finish 2021 3-14.
4. The only possible wins that I can see if they continue to play are they are is Week 7 at home against the Jets (Who are getting better but are playing a schedule like the Pats) and The Jacksonville Jaguars (Who are looking better each week). The only advantage for the Pats is that both games are being played in Foxboro. They just don't have the horses to pull the cart.
5. Bill and Josh are not making the proper adjustments and continue to believe that their run first game is best. Problem is that they abandon it the minute that the team falls behind and try to move the ball throwing 3 yard passes.
I'm not throwing in the towel. I'm trying to find hope with a team that is not improving one iota each week. This year's schedule is brutal and if the staff can't solve the problems or the personnel, then we can't expect the Patriots to be competitive.
The trade deadline is November 2, 2021 4:00 PM EST.
