You really have to give them credit for their creativity in setting new levels of futility over the years. When I see stats like these, all I can do is the French finger kiss and say "Tres Bien! C'est Formidable!!"

I was surprised when the old man reversed field and got away for a minute, he showed a little burst |

Thank you for another excellent season of insight and reflection, Mr blowfish
As for this house, I'm grateful to have watched such masterful play from our first homegrown world beater and couldn't be more excited about our future... fix this defense, toughen the O line, and strap in |

Now the rest of the story....the Pats were cheating and the probably-paid-off official turned a blind eye (see attached). A clear violation of Section 19, Article 2 of the NFL rule book. Quote:

If they had called illegal formation and offsides the penalties would offset. Still no play. No game sealing interception. |

But what did it not being called offsetting cost us other than the Int that helped them and not us? I won't even ask what seeing one but not the other from an official that's there to watch BOTH SIDES of the line might to suggest. I know, I know, it's a hard job...

Good read George. Thank you.
I was 4 rows behind you and a few seats to the left I think. I'm pretty sure I saw you come in. My buddy does some business with Scoular and he managed to snag those tickets from those dudes. I'm really thankful to be there, even though our outcome was obviously ass. I hadn't seen Mahomes live and I needed to. Also, I think if I'd watched it at home with all the replay and stuff it would have been even more devastating getting to see the shit 14,000 times in instant replay. Anyway, I must commend you for putting up with the colossal ****fest that is parking and getting out of there. I'm not sure I'd be good for that very often. Yuck. I was surprised how old the dude with the sign was. You'd think he'd have grown out of it by then. As far as the game goes, it was largely maddening. In the first half the OL was pure and utter garbage. They couldn't pick up anything. I don't know if that's on Mahomes or Morse, but I'm pretty sure it's a gameplanning issue. Credit to the coaching in the second half. They made the appropriate adjustments and did a nice job protecting him in the second. I figured Belicheat would lean on the power run game because he did it against the Chargers successfully. You would think the staff would, I don't know, plan for that? Nope. Not the Chiefs. We have to adjust for that later. So they did, and finally started occasionally stopping the run. So Brady started needing to pass periodically. At this point, Brady is an essentially Alex Smith with a far faster read. Brady's technique is tight and he isn't going to miss the short shit. He missed the longer throws. And really the ball in endzone was a good ball and the one to Gronk at the end was pretty easy, but a good ball. Other than that, everything else he threw was a remarkably easy pass. Which, credit to the Cheatriot game plan, it was top notch as always, and credit to Brady for the reads. All that being said, you'd think Reid would be acutely aware of how to beat Alex, even if Brady is far faster on the reads. You beat Alex by sitting on the short throws. We've seen it. It works. So what do our DBs do? ****ing sprint to the first down marker so they don't get beat deep. Then the ball is on the receiver and it's a first. Watching that makes me want to kill kittens. If Brady's not so good arm beats you deep, so be it. He will not miss the short throws. So it's definitely give up a bunch of firsts and hope for a bad playcall from Cheatriot staff (LOL), or roll with potentially giving up a throw that is far less likely to be completed. That is criminally negligent coaching. It was also painfully obvious that Brady could read whether our OL was playing the run or pass because he always had the right playcall. We could get guys back there, but he'd have handed it off. And if he was passing, our guys weren't making passrush moves and he had all day. I know it's hard to trick Brady, but damn it. I was pretty proud of stopping the flea flicker and the 4th down stop. It seems like those plays always work and they're always back breakers. Not to parrot Reid here, but there is a lot of blame to go around and most of it I see is on the staff. The offensive first half was criminal for a guy that is supposed to slate out the first drive ahead of time and be the best in the business. The D, yeah. And then there is Dee Ford. He's had a bunch of them called on him this year, and I just don't ****ing get it. He's got to look at the ball to see when the snap is. I just don't get it. |
