And tonight is why Jones won't be back in NE next year. He'll get decent money somewhere else, but not from the Pats.

Put Garoppolo in, Brady doesn't need to eat more hits in a losing venture.

Cam Cannon!

The guy is a howitzer turned man.

Watching the patriots game I'm reminded of Oscar Wilde commenting on the old curiosity shop:

One would need a heart of stone to read the death of little Nell without laughing.

AbusesToilets

coco0981

And there we go

3 minutes to go, 2 timeouts left. Do you onside kick again?

Not really, yes he's important but life has gone on without him in the past. As others have pointed out before, in 2013 Brady got us to the AFC title game with a completely new WR corp and Gronk was injured for all of that season. He ended up having to throw the ball to the likes of Slater, when everyone was banjaxed for that game.

As of last week, he had the worst group of WR's in the league - they had 33 drops, 6 more than any other QB's pass catching group. Then throw in probably one of the worst O lines in the league, who've gone through an NFL record amount tweaking personnel and it's a miracle he hasn't been killed yet.

dicey, it's such a low percentage play, I'd trust the D to get the stop

Big 3rd down for Philly

Just flip off Logan Ryan

You can rely on Logan Ryan.
And by 'you' I mean the opposition.

you sure the pats have the most drops I'm almost certain the eagles top that.

il put it this way with regards gronk i dont think the pats win the Super Bowl without him i think they are faves with him. i know brady got them to the afc title game in 2013 but even with amendola and edelman in that team i felt that they where a different animal if they had gronk in there you saw it in the broncos game the receiving corp got swallowed up (i know brady is more important but the difference is brady goes down and so does the pats season)

i didn't think they would pass it more than 3 yards that may be the first time all season they've actually thrown it past the down marker

Why not? After all, they are playing one of the worst secondaries in the league.

The only reliable catcher Brady had in that 2013 AFC title game was Edelman and he was gone by the third quarter. So Brady had nobody to throw the ball to in the second half. We lost Ridley with a helmet hit just when the run game was moving well and that was pretty much it. I agree with you, with Brady throwing to a healthy Gronk we become a SB favourite.

But this season, our O line has been so bad that Gronk has has to stay back and do a lot of in line blocking to help them out. So on a lot of plays, that more or less wipes out the advantage of having him on the field.

AbusesToilets

LaFell needs to carry some of the blame for that loss, giving up on routes, dropping key passes. Needs to pull the ****ing thumb out.

j8wk2feszrnpao

Well done Philly. Pats made a game if it at the end, but those three drops in a row summed up our night.

yap and the eagles go joint top of the nfc east with an absolutely hilarious 5-7 they really need to change the rules a bit a genuinely good team is going to miss out because the nfc east is a ****bucket seems to happen every year

Drops were not the only problem today.

- ST fooking murdered us
- Stupid fooking play calling murdered us
- The Eagles taking advantage of us playing zone all the time defensively and getting Barner and Sproles on Swing passes and in the flats killed us
- Tom Brady making some pretty stupid throws deep killed us.

Even with the fight at the end had we fought like that when the game started we wouldn't have had to try the almighty comeback at the end. The better team won today and good Job Kelly and co for winning.

One thing for Eagles fans I would trade away both Bradford and Murray and keep Barner and Sproles if Kelly is kept on. Bradford and Murray are not suited for Zone Read offense.

Awful game to watch. Now to enjoy traffic on the way home.

JCTO

Probably been mentioned but Tom Brady had the longest catch of all NE WR today with 36 yards. The next catch was Chandler with 30 yards then White with 25 yards.

That stat I mentioned earlier, came from the mouth of Cris Collinsworth during the Pats - Broncos game last weekend. Looks like he was a bit off then.
