53 Yard FG Miss

i've noticed that Kasay doesn't get enough lift on the ball when he kicks 50 yard field goals or more, I think he has had 3 attempts from that range blocked so far this year and I was worried the Pats would get a block and return from it. I was happy when he missed the field goal. that was the best possible result given his range and the conditions.

why you kick a fg when the best possible result is a missed fg is beyond me

That was the dumbest call ever by Fox, IMO. If there was ever a time in a game to be aggressive, that was it. Even if you go for it there and don't get it, you still put the Patriots in worse field position than you do by missing a FG, which was the lower percentage play in that weather anyway.

this team is dedicated to winning
yeah, i saw richardson call down to fox and tell him to have kasay kick it. i also saw kasay on the phone. probably talking to the big cat himself. said something about trying to lose so that they could have an easier schedule or something.

oh yeah, i think there was also some conversation about a strategy to not be as incredibly active as the cardinals were last year...you know, only re-signing 2 players to multi year deals and a few more to one year deals, bringing in only one vet who can help somewhere, creating a situation in which you could have 22 players becoming free agents the following year....yeah, that's the kind of genius the team is trying to avoid. that's what teams do who are trying to get better and are committed to winning.

No one call is ever going to make me say a coach should be fired. Its the body of work that matters to me. If he is indeed fired, it should be because of the lack of attention to the QB and Wide Receiver positions, the problems on the defensive front with stopping the run, and consistent problems over the last two-three years on special teams. And no signs of improvement in any of those areas.

But yes, it was a very bad call.

    • Immediately cast blame? We had been talking about the bad throws to Hunter (the missed TDs and hospital ball) for days leading up to that injury report.   And yeah, the rib injury then becomes something to point out.  and you are getting desperate with this projected extremism.  No one  said you should never throw seams.  I shared with you an article after you scoffed at seams being routes you can get hung out to dry on….and it was the best of the best talking about the dangers of those routes.   And they talked about it because they threw them a lot and there dudes were at risk so the throws really matter.  Because you can hurt your receivers.  we disagree, cool.  I got a pro Bryce former NFL QB calling it a hospital ball and bad throw.  So I got a plus +1 making my argument.  Find a QB that backs your take. 
    • You exclusively highlighted Hunter's name on the injury report and then immediately cast blame. I've pointed out that this wasn't the hospital ball you claim it to be while also acknowledging that there could have been another option to target instead of Renfrow. By everything you've expressed here, you don't think seam routes should ever be thrown. I don't know how that helps the already struggling offense, but I do know that it would make it even worse than it already is. Scapegoating never has and never will solve anything. Tell you what: Try not blaming Bryce or casting shade his way for the entire week after Arizona and instead look at the other 21 starters and assess what they're doing (again, without shading Bryce). I'll join you and refrain from exploring what the rest of the team is doing and will focus solely on what Bryce needs to do better. Deal? This is a sincere peace offering to allow us to explore the other's perspective and perhaps be even more informed football fans.
    • TMac PI throw was a TD too.  Bryce just drastically under threw it.  Renfrow and TMac set themselves up to BOTH have great days.   the story of last of no one was open…..isn’t a defense the Bryce Young defenders can use so far this year
