It's all about their OL. They dominated Dallas, held their own against NO and got whupped tonight by NE. Games are almost always won and lost in the trenches.
Either McVey is overrated or Goff isn’t worth the contract he is going to command.
I personally think it’s the later.
Losing Gurley hurt McVey as they couldn’t throw to RBs that much.
They had some success throwing Anderson in this game but Gurley wasn’t healthy.

Those are all more memorable than the Philly Special? C'mon dude take the Big Blue blinders off and get real.

Too predictable. Gotta give the Pats staff credit. They were the first team to realize that every pass they throw is off play action. Don’t even need to play the run.
Gurley should never have taken the field. If you can't give damn near 100% then get off the field. I don't blame Gurley (he toughed it out) but they must have had somebody else who could have done more.

The Rams are going to have to dump some guys right? There’s no way they can keep all these players. They’d have no cap room.
And their OL still got whupped.

I think this proves the point pretty well that the saints got royally screwed.
I HAVE run the numbers...it's not good for the Patriots, NFL, or fans who want to believe there's a legitimate competition happening...
I've said there are two issues with Patriots games...the timing and type of penalty called...I've focused on Offensive Holding because it's the most Discretionary penalty there is, and often called by the lead Referee...
Turns out the Patriots often receive a predominance of their Offensive Holding penalites on Special Teams, when they want them...THIS LEGITIMATELY HAPPENED TONIGHT. First Half, only one penalty, a Special Teams Holding Penalty.
Then I said, hey, as a Bills fan, I've noticed they seem to backweight the Patriots penalties...here's the data:
1) Out of 32 NFL teams, ONE went the entire season (19 games) without an Offensive Holding penatly in the First Q. You guessed it...Patriots. Let 'em get a lead. Every team had one in the first 6 weeks, except the Rams...all the way to week 14...hmmmmmmm
2) The Patriots then had SIX Holding penalties in the 2Q all season...one was on a FG vs the Bills, 56 yards that missed by a mile (a HOLDING PENALTY on a FG? Oh, it missed let's drop one)...then in the Colts game they called TWO holding penalties on a play when they'd already called Tripping...sooooo, decline the two Holding penalites...they literally called THREE holding penalties on the Patriots ALL SEASON in the first half...
3) What's worse? You might figure the Patriots lagged the NFL averate of holding penalties per game...but not at all. 23 vs 22.8, right on the average. What happened??!?!? As SOON as the Patriots were up two scores in the 2H, the flags started flying...EXCEPT for two against Pittsburgh, late in the season, when the Steelers needed to make the playoffs.
So, all season, the Patriots were never flagged for Holding unless they were up by TWO SCORES.
That is total BS...and not some inconvenient coincidence.
League is a fraud, plain and simple, and Kraft is at the top of it.
(BTW, all this data is completely accurate and available, they just hope you won't sift through it).

All of the above. And they had like 1 play to CJ passing. At this early time, I think that's the worst SB I've ever watched.

Thing is the Patriots would have scored more than 13 against the Saints defense too IMO.
They did get screwed but Payton made a whopper of a mistake when he called a pass play with less than two minutes left. The blown call tends to obscure that but he screwed up royally on that play.

If the Rams are smart, they’ll let Goff walk when his contract is up and just have another rookie salary dude waiting in the wings.
11 hosstledler somehow holding on to the ball while being sacked by Bruce smith.

That other guy: “Jim, you let me drive all the way to Stewart’s game without telling me we weren’t getting him?”
I’m guessing Jimmy felt bad and brought him to the Super Bowl?
