Blocked punt TD.
Offsides on missed FG.
Int in red zone.
Penalty on 2 yard line in 4th.

Patriots have plenty to clean up.

They played poorly but Colts were the better team tonight.
Not too upset Colts OL and speed on defense were the difference.

Mac Jones is solid. People don’t like him but he played well.
 
the Great Bill Belichick lost a game to a team whose QB completed a total of 5 passes.

In a dome.
Belichick broke Bills fans.
You know watching the game. Colts got a lead and then just shortened the game by running.

It would have been stupid to throw the ball with the lead the colts had.

Patriots made mistakes but I mean cmon man.
 
That game on the 26th between NE and BUF will be critical. Winner of that is in decent position. AFC is wide open. Colts are dangerous. AFC North looks like shite. Tennessee needs Henry at full go in the playoffs. KC probably the favorite but far from invincible.
 
Tenn running game gashed NE with backups too but they kept fumbling.

Boy this nfl network show stinks. Irvin is the best one.

Wow, losing to a team that completed a pass 5 times. Sad!

What is sad is the team that supposedly has the best roster in the AFC is only 7-6.

That is sad.

What is sad is losing a football game when a team only attempts 3 passes in a game.

Bills take care of business tomorrow, and they control their own destiny in the east by virtue of division record, right? That New England game will be so freaking big.
 
Indy with a Syracuse 2021 performance. Ride your horse RB with a QB throwing. 5-12 for 57 yards.
It was more of a Army/Navy game by Indy.
Their were only 6 possessions total in the first half.
Indy won the game in the second quarter with their 9 minute drive that got 3 points and then NE threw a redzone INT right before half.
Going in 17-0 at halftime the game was over barring Wentz throwing that stupid INT in the 4th.
Their weren’t going to be enough possessions.

Colts OL is the best in football when healthy.
It was a good job by them and a fast Indy D.

Indy is probably the best team in the AFC right now. Your Chiefs are good but I would rather play them than Indy in January:

Chiefs need Chris Jones or else teams can move the ball on them.
Chiefs offense is good but not playing as well as Indy right now.
 
Last night was another example of my argument that no rational AFC fan can possibly feel good about their team’s chances of stringing together 3 or 4 consecutive good performances in the playoffs.
I think the Chiefs are starting to peak at the right time. That said they did get a bit lucky against the Chargers.
 
For the record, you're happy with him playing on a weekly basis the way he did last night?
He made one bad decision.
The red zone INT in 2nd Qand it was a great disguse by Leonard to undercut that.
The second pick was just an outstanding play by the LB Wasn’t upset with it at all. Sometimes players make plays and that was that.

Jones is fine. He is advanced for a rookie. He will get better. Patriots weapons are solid but they aren’t elite in the league. Give him more weapons he will get even better.
I was fine with Jones last night.
His LT was awful all game. Team couldn’t run on a D that was fast.
He can improve but for a rookie I like where Jones is at.

He made plays last night in the 4th. I believe if the defense gets him the ball back with 1:10 down 3 Jones gets the job done.
 
Belichick has had a good year, but he should be getting killed for being the anti Brandon Staley last night.

Ha, I didn’t see the game, really just responding to the RB/QB stat lines.

I haven’t seen the colts much this year. Seem like a poor man’s titans?

Yes, the chiefs absolutely need Chris Jones. Our other DTs simply aren’t good enough.

you thought that the throw on 4th and 1 was good? the decision to throw across the field on 3rd down was smart?
 
Jones is better than what fans want to admit but obviously not as the good as the media portrays him. Having said that I would take my chances on making him beat you instead of letting the Pats beat you up with their running game and defense. Same goes for the Colts

He is a rookie. The rest of this class has been absolute garbage. As a Saints fan I would take him.

Trevor Lawrence is going to get a pass because of Urban, but I’d be concerned if I was a Jags fan. Lots of Jameis like tendencies there. Scouts and media don’t like to admit when they are wrong.
 

Pay attention to the crowd shot right after the score. You can spot all of the Colts fans who were going up against Taylor in fantasy.

He isn’t perfect.
He wasn’t bad last night.
The first INT was a bad read and Leonard outsmarted him.
That 3rd down throw across his body he saw Henry had the LB boxed out.
I don’t want my Qb doing that a lot but he saw his guy had “rebounding” position and put it on him.
Mac gets too much love from the media but he is a solid QB as a rookie. He will get better and get more trust.

Patriots need to find a WR that can move all their weapons down one rung. If this team had one more WR who is good they would be deadly. Like a DeVonta Smith, Jaylen waddle in the draft.


Mac is why the team is 9-5 this year. They have an actual QB who is accurate and can make smart plays.
That was the opposite of Cam.

Not every QB is Justin Herbert or Josh Allen.
The Patriots can win a SB with Jones if they upgrade just a little more.

Yes he will get better, I don't see a lot of upside in his game though. The QB class got hyped up a bit too much I agree with that. I don't see how the Bears or Jags hire competent coaches that can develop their QBs

I think Fields is better off than Lawrence. That owner just seems clueless about football and Fields has shown more than Lawrence.

Wilson is Darnold 2.0. Straight trash IMO. Any QB that goes to any of the NY/NJ teams is guaranteed to be overrated by the media.
