    Maybe this defense is starting to show up as expected at start of year. Still think Peyton hasn't the arm strength since his surgeries and the wind in Foxborough won't help that. We were 24 down at half time last year in same fixture so hopefully we don't suffer the same fate

    , to start thinking this game is done.

    As Pats fans we can never expect a game to be over especially against team like the Broncos. I dont think anyone here expects this to be over.

    I would hope not. Crazy to even think it.

    And Amendola helps tip the ball for the Int.

    Browner's lack of pace exposed a lot tonight.
    And this game is even further from over.
    Offence needs to step it up again.

    Thats the thing with the type of corner Browner is though. Physical corners dont need speed as they use their strength to slow you down. Problem with that now is the rules are going against guys like Browner.

    A few too many drops creeping into this game.

    Absolutely. And to be fair, it's a tough matchup.

    3pt return isn't bad against the wind, but drops hurting us.

    McCourty left a nice hit on Welker.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,438 ✭✭✭j8wk2feszrnpao


    Who was slating Browner!! ;)

    Some hit on Welker, that's gotta hurt!

    LaFell TD!
    It's really looking good now.

    Serious zip on some of TB's passes tonight.

    Gruden admiring one 20-25 yarder (can't remember the precise length he mentioned) he threw into a head wind in the first half. No other QB does it against the elements the way he does and consistently has.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,438 ✭✭✭j8wk2feszrnpao


    Really good long drive to finish the 3rd quarter.
    Killed a lot of time; wind at our back for the 4th quarter.

    Gronk is like a created player on Madden.

    Best description ever!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,510 ✭✭✭Hazys


    Bad challenge


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,719 ✭✭✭JaMarcusHustle


    Brady was never going for anyone else on that one. Gronk deserved that TD.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,141 ✭✭✭✭paulie21


    Wow Gronk 50 TD catches in 4 and a half seasons is amazing. Injured for a good chunk of that too

    Joint fastest in NFL history with the great Randy Moss. And just look at all the games Gronk missed with injury.

    Don't know about you guys, but I want 50.

    As I said last week this is the week that the media turns and starts gushing about us. We will be no.1 seeds in the AFC after this game and they will be talking about us as Superbowl champs.

    Tbh the way we are playing we can win it all but we need to avoid more injuries to important players. That is what has held us back for the last couple of years.

    I remember a couple of people giving out about Browner in preseason play, I think his performances so far in the regular season show just how irrelevant the preseason is. I suppose the same applied to LaFell too.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,438 ✭✭✭j8wk2feszrnpao


    I want us to run the ball and eat clock.
    Then I want the D to pick it up; Broncos have had some quick long drives.

    Yes and as Conan The Barbarian (Arnie) said..

    The problem with Browner is that he is giving up far too many penalties. He is lucky everyone is doing their job tonight because if this game was closer he would be ruining us right now. He needs pick up the revised rulebook and fooking memorise the bloody rules and the coaches need to sit him down and dumb it down to explain it to him. If he keeps this sh1t up he could be the difference between winning and losing a playoff game.

    3 big stops on 4th down.
