Pats Skins


Mother Grabber

Recommended Posts

Watching the Pats v the Skins preseason game. Pats look like they never skipped a beat from having Brady out for a year. The Skins are looking just as impressive, though. Campbell and the O is very sharp, and the D is aggressive. They did get beat on some zone coverage a few times, but they tackled well. NFC East is going to be a dog fight.

Pats secondary looked lost.

Fat Albert is destroying whatever poor sap has to block him.

Deangelo Hall is still a bitch.

They are getting decent pressure on the QB but yeah the secondary is lost. They have no veteran CB (as in a starter with more than one year experience) who has played with their team.

Once again playing a bunch of weird looks on D. Everyone on the LOS and Mayo @ LB, different combos of players in a 4-3 etc. The 4-3 look with Wright and Wilfork @ DT is promising. Burgess has done nothing impressive so far though.

Gotta love after Haynesworth crushed Brady making him land on his right shoulder, he has the sense to try to help him up by grabbing Brady's left hand while the Pats Chris Baker grabs his right.

Titus Adams is a DT to watch for the Pats. He's done some good things all preseason.

Watching D. Hall getting bitchslapped was fun!

Watching O'Connell shows why they got a veteran backup. Kid's very raw.

I am all for a rule to allow no OT in preseason. This is the second game I've watched that's come close to that. Supposedly it was proposed recently. Wonder why in the world it wouldn't take about negative three seconds to approve that one.

It is a penalty (driving the QB into the ground) when you aren't using your arms to brace yourself. Haynesworth clearly did not brace himself. I think that was perhaps borderline, but I don't have any beef with it's not being called.

I meant to add...Titus Adams might be someone Hurney should look at.

    • 100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.  
    • "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
