Jaguars @ Patriots Official Game Thread - Championship Round Week

Amendola didnt survive the ground


The NFL is bullsh%t

 

The ball moved, but it never actually touched the ground. It was a catch

 

That was a nice TD

The Patriots are the Patriots

You can hate them or you can just give the azzholes the credit they kinda deserve.

Brady will probably be slinging it until he is 50

 

I don't think Bortles is a bad QB, but I'm not sure he can answer back with all this pressure on his shoulders now

 

Anyone notice that exotic play on 2nd and 2, I believe they call that the QB sneak that must be a new play because our beloved Super team bypassed in that play on 4th and inches

 

Disagree, but who cares. Rules are so ambiguous and selectively enforced at times it hardly matters

 

Man, that James Harrison really is useless.......

 

TT (tubby tomlin) is a great evaluator of talent

 

Jags tried. They had a chance. But Brady is Brady.

 

And still won without Gronk

 

Allow me to give u more info that u can chew on over tonight’s dinner.
Even if u take away Jacksonville’s defensive TD last week our beloved Super Steelers D gave up more points to Jacksonville than Buffalo and NE did combined. 38 to 30. Another bad sign for the defense that Tubby built, aka double T

 

Tomlin should be forced to watch footage of Bill B. Watch the way he deals with the press, his demeanor on the sideline and with his players.
I'm of the opinion that those things put a good team over the top. As much as we gripe, if we deny that the Steelers are one of the tops teams out there, then we're foolish. Tomlin needs to see how he can take them up the extra step.

 

His own team doesnt believe in him hence the knee with 55 seconds to go and the play calling int he second half.

 

Peyton Manning took a knee in 2012 against the Ravens to let a game go into overtime, instead of trying to drive for a FG, against a defense that had given up 35 points and about 400 yards during the game. The fans boo'd. Peyton was having a great season. I doubt anybody would say his team didn't trust him.

In terms of the play calling, we've all seen teams go stupidly conservative during the second half of a game with a lead. By that logic, only Brady and maybe Rodgers are trusted by their teams

 

Where was the ball? How many TOs did they have? How much time was left?

 

31 seconds vs 55 seconds

 

HoF QB with a stacked offense vs Blake Bortles with some #2s. Both took a knee

 

Vs Falcons with about 50 seconds left in the 1st half Eagles drive and get 3.
Vs the Vikings with about 30 seconds left in the 1st half Eagles drive and get 3.

 

I'm also curious how many time outs the other team had. If they only have one, I think you can be aggressive on first down and throw the ball because you can run the clock on second down if you don't get anything. If you move it, then start going for it.

 

Didnt Peyton loose that game? Jags also lost right? Drive get points win games.
