Our defense is aggressive. McDaniels is going to call so many screens on Sunday.

 

The thing is, we don't blitz that often. Screens are not as effective against a standare 4 man rush. That, and we run to the ball well. But then again, who knows? They do screen a lot as it is. So it could go either way.

Does anyone know what time the press conference is today for the injury update?

I saw something that said Darnold was on the field but left prior to the time to speak to the media. So likely no word from Darnold, but maybe the staff will offer something. Though I feel like Rhule is good for saying "we'll see on ____ (insert later date)"

I know the Pats are an average team, as are we.  Other than the win vs the Chargers, they've done little -- other 3 wins were vs the Texans and Jets.  They've only exceeded 29 points once, the drubbing of the Jets the 2nd time, which skews their average pts scored. 

They allow more rushing yards, and more passing yards, than we do, and they have not yet faced a Defense as strong as ours.

I don't think their Defense will shut down our running game, and I think, at home, we have a better than average chance to win this game.  Our front 7, now that we've got Shaq and YGM back, and with Gilmore at press corner, will cause turnovers.

Can our defense confuse their rookie QB? 

Can we shut them down completely?

Will we have to with PJ at QB (probably)?

 

Inquiring minds want to know. 

Probably.

Unlikely given our D will have to be out there all day.

Because we'll have to win with PJ at QB, which means we very likely won't consistently move the ball, but will definitely turn it over multiple times and leave our D in a bad situation.

If we can't run on them like we ran on the Falcons, our D will be out there all day.

It's about them being wrong about Darnold, so they have to be right about PJ.

Like for 3 weeks, we won but I was still right about Darnold, as we all know now, the coaches were cuddling the shyt of him.

Now enters a real underdawg....

    • This draft is 2023 all over again, it's not hard to see. QB's who don't grade out as high first round prospects while at the same time, the following draft class looks to be loaded with elite QB prospects. Drafting a QB just because you need one (or making a bad trade to make said draft pick), when there isn't one worthy of that draft pick, is how you ruin franchises, just look at us right now.  
    • I upgraded to the S24+ a few weeks back. Very happy with it. 
    • LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.   And yes, I've never said I'm not a T-Mac homer. But me being that doesn't change that he will be the highest graded offensive player in this year's draft, at a position we haven't been able to solve since we lost Smitty.  Taking him makes all the sense in the world, my bias aside.
