PATRIOTS GDT WEEK 6 1:01 PM - The Drake Maye era begins - CBS, CTV (Montreal), 98.5 WBZ-FM

[BernieMcAvoy]

Going to be real interesting to see how ownership spin the teams record and coaching being worse than last season while also hoarding cap space that could be used to improve the roster

 

[PatriceBergeron]

No point in playing him today. Impatient fans got to them. I have absolutely no faith that this coaching staff has any clue what they are doing

 

[BigBadBruins7708]

And this is why playing Maye was stupid as f***. He doesn't benefit from this at all

 

[DKH]

Jonathan Kraft wanted a docile young coach who would yield to their demands and not a veteran coach with football acumen who would talk back, it's why they forced out Bill and didn't even consider Harbaugh.

Bill sucked

He never spoke a word to his QB or DC all year

He ruined this team

Come on you are aware of this ?

They don’t have personnel - going to take 2-3 years

You can’t draft Cole Strange over Trent McDuffie or Nkail Harry over Deebo Samuel

This is a Belichick & Kraft production

Kraft forced this version of Drake Maye’s last stand

They could have lost 24-10 today with Brissett & be another week closer to 1 overall & Maye on ice

 

[BMC]

Wow a pick!!!

 

[smithformeragent]

Somehow this game isn’t 24-0.

It's a miracle!!!

 

[smithformeragent]

You need at least 3 points on this drive.

He benefits if he doesn't get killed. Nothing beats experience.

The entire coaching staff including the gm have zero experience, I can’t imagine Krafts thought process deciding this was going to work out.

 

[Smitty93]

Can't believe the Bengals lost to us.

The reason they gave out game balls is because they knew it'd be the only win for the season

 

[smithformeragent]

Got something going on offense… delayed handoff up the middle

 

[Nothingbutglass]

f*** this offense. Put him in shotgun full time

 

[BigBadBruins7708]

Nah, this is how young QBs get ruined.

This is where they learn bad habits, don't have the time or confidence to use what they're learning and build good habits or learn how to progress through the reads and make pre snap adjustments. Survival mode is detrimental.

He's better off sitting and building up in practice.

 

[EverettMike]

Alex Van Pelt f***ing sucks.

...

I'm putting this on Robert for falling in love with Jerod Mayo during a trip to Israel

Its simple. The experience level and internal promotions ensures they'll be cheap to pay

In what world would he not killed behind this offense line?

 

[CDJ]

The team quite literally has 4 PS guys on the line, they could have the best offensive coordinator in the world and it wouldn’t matter. This defense made Josh Allen look atrocious last week.

This is why I was saying it was dumb to start Maye so soon

Jonathan needs to send him to sunny acres happy ending massage parlor for good. He’s destroyed this team the last few years.

They show him the tape and where he should have stepped up, checked down etc. Normal QB things. How many teams are starting rookies? Eliot Wolf is an idiot and thinks Packers slow simmering QBs is the only way to develop them.

They should have him on the move every passing play

 

[Nothingbutglass]

Have McAdoo start calling the plays next series. Send Van Pelt to re-fill the Gatorade jugs.

It's all great in theory. The fact of the matter is the offense line can't even line up correctly. They are going to speed the kid up, getting him seeing rushers that aren't there at time, ruin his confidence, and possibly get him hurt.

If they had a decent line and some offensive weapons, I'd tend to agree to let him play. This is a downright terrible situation for even a good QB, let alone a rookie
