Intense pressure off the 4 men rush can effectively neutralize Gronkowski AND Hernandez. (Jets front seven is literally trash - which is why Brady gets all day in the pocket to cook his own hotdog in there.)
Eh, idk. I thought drops killed the Pats more than anything else. I mean, if Welker hauls in that catch, the game is most likely over. Gronk wasn't even 50% for this game, and outside of the last drive, I didn't even think the Giants front 4 played that stellar.
Ground and Pound will not win, you need a QB that can play and wideouts that can catch the damn ball. This team needs 2 OLB's that can rush the QB a good cover saftey and 2 more wideouts. Then this team will win.
Gotta agree with that there. Plus, even with :59 seconds remaining, there were BACK-TO-BACK drops that pretty much killed any shot of getting closer to the endzone for a deep pass instead of a hail-mary.... my god this whole thing SUCKS! I think I'll take a page out of Champion's playbook and post a smiley at the end of every post of mine that is appropriate for the Jets situation 'till they win a friggin' SuperBowl. And here it is :
lesson of the day- disciplined coach/disciplined team/team chemistry, actions speak louder than words...at least they denied brady and belichick
Good lesson plan for next year. But we've known this for many years. Give Brady time and you're screwed. Take away his time and he becomes human. Pretty simple, really.
