Because the last shot they showed had Strange's knee down and the ball was roughly at the half-yard line and they needed to get it to the yard marker

I don’t understand how you can for sure know where the ball is. It’s not ON the field. Unless you can ensure that you are getting a camera angle shooting straight across the field exactly at the marker, you can’t make that call. You’re talking about inches. Considering the camera has to stand to one side or the other from where the sticks are, it’s not a direct angle.

I think the odds are that it WAS NOT a first down. But the idea that you can overturn something that close from a camera located however far off the marker is insane to me. When the ball touches the grass, he has the first down. The call on the field was a first down. You cannot convince me that is absolutely 100 percent certain not a first down. I’ll give it an 85%.

Sucks that they were inches from a first down but it's another Mac Jones drive with the game on the line where he takes a costly early down sack and the offense can't get it done. 33 games and still only one 4th quarter comeback or game winning drive in his career.

The margin for error is so thin you need a clean game from Mac or a defensive score. You're not gonna win scoring 17-20 points.

When healthy from left to right the line should be

Brown Strange Andrews Mafi Onwenu.

It’s the best combo for the cluster they have.

this patriots team is gonna be a lot like the sox were this year - there are flashes and there will be successes but they lack the talent or experience to hang and it shows

Pats would never surround him with or pay those kinda weapons so we need the QB to be better, or just an improved offensive line.

We just need ONE playmaker. We have none. We signed JuJu. Where was JuJu?

Pop Douglas has something special but after that fumble, I don't think he saw the field again. I'm sorry but this is why Hopkins was needed. We have no #1. We have nothing.

Not that bad? He's not that good either. And he has a colossal blunder every single week.
He's not the reason we lost last week or this week.

Juju is cooked I’m afraid, definitely would have liked more Douglas.
