It's extremely early, but so far the eye test is pretty rough on Bryce Young

Pats beat the Rams 20-17 in the 2001 season (2002 Super Bowl). They had a pick 6 in the SB. Also had a FG after a 14 yard, 5 play drive because of an INT.

Belicheck is just as important as Brady in their dynasty. 

 

I'm not saying that BB wasn't important in their dynasty.  I'm denying your assertion that the first 3 Super Bowls that NE won were on the back of defense and not offense as if Brady didn't play a major role in all of their SB wins, especially their first 3.  

That first Super Bowl win had Brady leading an extremely clutch end game drive starting deep in the Patriots territory to get them in field goal position for the game winner. 

 

They were the best HC-QB combo ever.  BB of course played an essential part in it.  Brady though has shown he was probably the greater part of the pairing.

He's talking about the 20-17 win over the Rams where the Pats scored on a pick 6. Their first one.

 

He also said he was talking about their first 3 Super Bowls.  

Roby up today

I’m worried about Opeta vs Donald…

@mattwill I'll go 32-24 Rams. Gainwell with a TD.  

Hill with a 69 yard TD. It's just that easy sometimes for Miami I guess.

Looks like this is Minshew's chance to make himself a starter in his career.  He's going to have a good Colts team for the rest of the season.  If he makes the playoffs he should be the top QB FA next year.  

Kind of like king of the dipsheets

Loving the Pats and Stillers are losing - both teams getting by on tradition, but the game has passed them by.  BB's coaching tree is trash and no one worth their salt, wants to go there.

Imagine having Tucker as a kicker and going for it on 4th down with 12 seconds left in the half. Crazy. Would've been less than 50 yards.

Ravens don't impress me at all.

Giants doing a lot of the 3 man rush drop 8 and seems to be having some success 

Might keep the Dolphins under 50.

 

Trouble the Eagles might have is that going with only 3 rushers means not playing/using many of their best playmakers.  And does this team even have 8 players to use on the field at the same time in the 'back 7'?

Of course NYG goes cover zero with a no name on Hill …. Result: long TD.

The Eagles have worked Driscoll out at center in the past.   But, hopefully it won't matter.

 

 

BTW, heard on the radio discussion about the Eagles today... teams playing in OT don't do well the next week, but it might have been more specific to the spread.  But, I wonder how that impacts going across the country as well as playing OT the previous week.   Just looks like a tough spot for the Eagles.

Drop by Agholor... was open for a TD if he brings it in!

 

 

 

 

Some things never change.

From an emotional perspective, it can be hard to get back to that moment.  The key part in that is breaking down the issue with record at the time vs opponents record, and the travel associated. But can see some teams struggling massively, esp if they are not in an overall slump as a team

Agholor just Agholored

@mattwill

 

Eagles 38

Rams  31

Swift over 200 yards of offense

@mattwill

Eagles 28

Rams 34

Puka and Kupp combine for at least 200 yards

Definitely won't be home in time.  Half time of game 2. That half with 8 minute quarters just took almost an hour. This is horrible. 

Classic Agholor.

 

 

 

Anthony Richardson injured for the 3 time in 5 games.
