Undefeated Watch pt.2: Bills v Patriots


Jangler

Recommended Posts

Bills just missing too many opportunities and leaving too many points on the field.  Should have 17 points right now. One wide open TD missed due to a poorly thrown ball and another TD missed due to a dropped pass.  Not to mention the INT overturned due to penalty and the missed FG.

The NFL is gonna have to change their grounding rules due to Brady.  Dude abuses them.

Does Brady ever throw the ball downfield? I bet 90% of his completions and yardage comes from throws within 5 Yd of the LOS.

Most YAC in the league and Brady has the lowest average air yardage. Cam is 2nd behind only Palmer and by less than .05 yards.

I really wish our offense was somewhat similar though.

I said this last year, but if you look at the best passing attacks in the nfl, with the best, most accurate QBs, 70 percent of their throws are easy throws to wide open WRs, TEs, RBs.

And that is with the best, absolute most accurate QBs. Rodgers throws about 70 percent of his passes to wide open WRs...so too does Brees...so too Brady. Maybe about 10% of their throws are really difficult, down the field...thread the needle type throws.

For whatever reason, 70 percent of our offense's throws are down the field, hold the ball for 7 seconds, and thread the needle for no YAC yards type passes. Everything comes off the right arm of Newton. Prior to yesterday, I have a difficult time remembering a TD where Newton didn't have to throw it into the Endzone.

This also explains why Newton rarely ever throws for 300 yards in a game (that and a low amount of attempts). The passes he is asked to attempt (or simply refusing to take the check down) are mostly difficult throws that someone like Brady, despite being generally more accurate than Newton, attempts only about 10 percent of the time.

    • I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.
    • Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.
    • Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
