This will be Brady's only gameplay until week 5 of the regular season. The Patriots are playing this like it's a regular season game that Brady's playing in, and did when Jimmy was in as well. We're playing a preseason game. This same thing has happened the last two years when playing the Pats in the 3rd preseason game. Most of this means absolutely nothing. Certain players' play is definitely meaningful but the team's success absolutely is not.

They aren't playing like this is a regular season game....Brady is playing against a base defense with no strategy. If he didn't pick it apart then there would be issues.

Cam....well Cam can't run right now otherwise he would have more rushing than passing yards.

1) Ginn needs to go back to being a one trick pony and stop running routes where the degree of difficulty is anything more than a ball straight into his hands.

 

2) Cam needs to stop trying to get Kelvin involved. He'll earn his targets just like every other receiver, when he's actually open.

 

3) Run the goddamn ball. We are a running team first and foremost. So run it. I don't care if there's 12 in the box, run the goddamn ball.

 

We keep those three things in mind and we'll be fine.

Brady didn't make the Panthers offense look bad. If anything, our defense did okay-ish considering the lack of gameplanning. Any other night and they would've had two interceptions.

Personally, I'm not that concerned about the score. It's the little things, sailing balls high, dropping passes and penalty after penalty that is the problem. I may love this team but execution was poor tonight and Ron needs to let them know the team that preseason or now, there is no excuse for not doing the basic things right.

Not anymore

Later half of the season to the SB, this offense changed. Run game only works if Cam is a threat to keep it. Power runs get stopped immediately, absolutely no holes open

Also, I wonder how much veteran dependability will be missed with our WR's. Cotchery was a dependable veteran receiver for the most part. Ginn is a veteran, but he's not dependable. Everybody else that we have are young

    • He’s set financially for life barring complete fiscal lunacy. He has $12.3 million guaranteed. Think about that. Twelve million three hundred thousand dollars, he’ll be 28 years old when his contract is up and he’s completely forgotten about if he never plays another down in the NFL if he so chooses. Say after taxes he ‘only’ brings home $6M (fire your accountant territory) and parks $4M in a run of the mill mutual fund… good God… What I’m getting at, IF homie ain’t feeling the NFL, he has 12,300,000 reasons to take the fewest NFL edition ass kickings as possible while waiting out his very wealthy non-football future.  Obviously completely talking out of my a$$ with this… but if you hated contact, didn’t want to live with a completely wrecked body for the rest of your life and you know you’re set financially… what path would you take, assuming you’re cool with being a quitter (not calling him a quitter, I’m just playing out a scenario)? Why do so many first rounders bust? Where was he before his one year wonder if he was such a stud?  Everybody likes the dude on a personal level. How could you not? …. but I like seeing a winning product even more. He doesn’t play like his head is in the game. The Why is where the speculation lies and helps to clarify if his issues are ‘fixable’ or not. 
    • Fantasy tiers? Who gives a fug
    • Very likely that he needs another season or two to really find his groove.  It very well may not be here where he has his best season. He’s a physical standout, but he can’t seem to get his focus and mentality right. That non-catch where he didn’t get his second foot in bounds was a truly awful display of this. Every professional in this game makes that catch.  Last week, it was clear that he wasn’t playing in top gear.  Like so many young people these days, he wants success without working hard.  He wants maximum reward for minimum effort. He wants to rest on talent. But talent alone won’t cut it.  The foolishness of youth and inexperience.  He can have it all if he wants it.  Seems like he’s content to be a social media star and a forgettable football player.
