Post-Game Talk: NFL Week 2: Seattle 23 New England 20 F: OT

[Donnie Shulzhoffer]

Three catches by the RECEIVER position will not get it done, ever. This is a reflection of, in specific order:

1 - Inadequate offensive line
2 - Weak receiver position group
3 - QB that doesn't have the skills to offset 1 & 2 above

And this is news how?

 

[BernieMcAvoy]

Offense leaves this team with almost no room for error and the defense couldn't get a stop when they really needed one all day. It is what it is with the offense, but i thought the defense looked poorly coached. Kept getting sliced by the same short yardage throws that were there because of the soft coverage and too many times it didn't look like everyone was on the same page. Geno Smith looked like a top 10 qb, that's how easy a lot of these throws were for him.

 

[Mione134]

Can't only rely on the run. You gotta throw.

Jacoby is too slow and indecisive in those moments as we saw today

 

[IveGotToBeMe]

And this is news how?

It's not, just affirms what we all knew all along

 

[CDJ]

If the Blocked FG is a make we are talking about this being a win. Special Teams matters, just like we learned last year

 

[Mione134]

MHJ having a fantastic day.

I told y'all he was an elite talent. I hope Maye pans out.

 

[Donnie Shulzhoffer]

Yes. The sun came up today

 

[Johnnyduke]

Still generally encouraged but they're not winning the next two games. 1-3 and then see if Tua is playing or not.

 

[bruinsfan1968]

Chiefs get bailed out again! WTF!

 

[Johnnyduke]

Even when you beat the Chiefs you know there will be a flag

If the Blocked FG is a make we are talking about this being a win. Special Teams matters, just like we learned last year

If the kick is made it's a 6 point lead with 3:52 to go. Geno Smith carved them up all day. It's not nearly as simple as you're making it out to be.

Can't get 3rd and 1 in it you deserve to lose
Also should have went on 4th and 1.
Should've drafter Harrison did you see him today would've made the difference. Maye isn't gonna be anything Harrison is gonna be a star

They better hope Maye is gonna be a star. I was banging the drum for MHJ. But considering Jacoby was going to be QB, he wasn't gonna throw to MHJ, sadly.

Unfortunately I think the combination of the Pats OL and Jacoby Brissett at QB would lead to limited production from Harrison.

Sure for this year then you draft a QB in the upcoming draft. Harrison was the best pick even ahead of Daniels and Williams. Pats screwed up the draft

 

[nORRis8]

Brissett gets one more start . 274 total yards passing in two games?
Is that where we're at?

MHJ having a fantastic day.

I’m convinced he’ll be a future Hall of Famer. The real deal.

100% Rob.

I know the Pats had to make a decision, but that guy is a legit #1 as they come.

 

[Troublesome 85]

Wanted MHJ all year but can’t really build a team with an elite WR and this upcoming draft is meh for QBs from what I have read

I would have taken Sanders, imo

 

[N o o d l e s]

Totally cool with it cause I don’t want Maye to die but holy shit Brisett is limited

 

[bruinsfan1968]

So a Houston player can throw a punch and headbutt someone, but not get tossed out of the game? Wow!

 

[KillerMillerTime]

He won't stay healthy and playing long. Feel bad for him.

This is about what one can expect from a tight knit, motivated lunchpail Patriots roster. Aside the secondary defensive scheme and play, they kind of played to expectations for their talent the rest of the way.

It is disappointing to see they have zero tolerance for missed points, but at least they do seem to play for oneanother and with some grit and determination. That is a good culture to build upon even if short terms W/L aren't in their favour.

It is very concerning the absolute beating Brisset is taking out there because at this rate Maye will be playing out of necessity by week 5. Brisset is getting trucked and taking hits not many other QB's are taking and you can see the D doesn't have any fear of penalties for being overly physical with him. That "land on top" hits on Rogers or Mahomes would have been penalties but Brisset is getting the journeyman treatment from the D and refs and that shouldn't be the case. You can also see why he is so respected in the room given the gumby game he has just getting trucked but back up every time. He's a gamer for sure.

I believe....:checks notes:....literally everyone knew this.

The OL has to be a priority to improve in the off season, by signing some UFA's and drafting.
It was nice to see Henry have a good game.
White is emerging as a core player along with Gonzalez.
There is no doubt we can run the ball effectively, however, this won't last as teams will learn to defend this.
It will be a big test for the offense to make some adjustments against the Jets next week. I cannot see us running the ball effectively against them.
