Did you see what the Patriots did last night...

That might have been one of the best displays of football I have seen in years.

Mac Jones only attempted 3 passes.

Just complete domination by the Patriots.

 

When will it be our turn to have a line that can just impose it's will on the enemy? Where you know it's coming but you can't stop it.

Man that was great to watch.

It was complete domination? Explain this, b/c the game was close and if McDermott wasn't such a fuging retard, he would have went for two and went for it on fourth down instead of kicking. He got outcoached last night. Bills line also looks like ours.

If you want an oline like that maybe stop encouraging our braintrust to trade away picks like candy just to be known as a cool wheeler and dealer.

you should also consider drafting promising O-LINE talent vs. 100% defense (and the defense still sucks by the way). But that would suggest the FO knows how to evaluate OLINE talent. 

 

Face it folks. Our ship is rudderless!!

The Patriots have a great OL but due to the horrible weather for MNF they ran another Tackle as the TE plus a FB and a 225 lb back.   So it was a jumbo package all game.

The Panthers could definitely copy that on short yardage plays.   Use Deonte Brown as the 6th OL with a FB and that big RB from the practice squad.

Savvy coaching staffs figure out creative ways to utilize the players they already have.   Unlike the Panthers.

Maybe we should be trying to build a team like the Patriots instead of garbage Steelers. jS

That's why I made a thread. Stop worrying about building some sort of pass happy offense and just build a good ol power team.

We should be emulating those POS in Boston

LT Wynn 1st round (23)

LG Karras 6th round (221)

RG Mason 4th round (131)

RT Brown 7th round (244) by SF

C David Andrews undrafted

 They really have not invested a ton in their OL outside of Wynn. We have Moton (2nd rounder), BC (3rd), and Brown (5th or 6th can’t remember). Grabbing up these later round OL has been paying dividends for them. They were even able to let Solder leave in FA a few years ago. If we could sign a good FA and load up (even at the end of the draft) this line can be repaired with the right scouting/development.

Jones hasn't looked horrible as a rookie. A rookie, guys. With Bill, their philosophy, their recent history, etc., if this kid can improve (as other elite QBs did in their early years), looks like nothing is going to change in the NFL lol. Hate them all you want, but I'm glad I got to witness the dynasty in person instead of reading about "that great team" on Wiki.

As I posted in another thread…

I am jealous of other teams olines that make this poo possible

Their beast guard btw was taken in the 5th round the year Rhule outsmarted the entire NFL and defied it’s history by going all defense…

who did he take instead?

you guessed it - some CB I don’t even remember his name, probably not even on the team anymore

Did anyone actually watch the game? This was a game plan of necessity. It was bitter cold with 30-50mph winds. Not exactly conducive to airing it out.

Did u know like everyone watching and the Bills out on the field that Patriots were going to run the ball every down no matter what? Guess what they still couldn’t stop 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.  Mock drafts 
    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
