Let's talk about the Patriots

[TLO]

The garbage known as the Oakland Raiders have been disposed of. Time for a real opponent.

It's the ****ing Patriots.

Patriots open as early 4 point favorites.

Discuss.

I doubt Baltimore loses 2 more though.

NE will.

We’re gonna dismantle them and Buffalo is going to burn what’s left to the ground.

Yeah, but if we're in a three way tie with NE/HOU or BAL/HOU, then HOU wins the tie-breaker. We need either NE or BAL to fall back to our record AND Houston to lose one more than us.

So, if it's necessary for you to basically be a total ****ing pig every time you post, I guess I'm allowed to occasionally use a homophobic slur when talking about Patriots fans.

I mean, seriously. You ****ing snowflake. Is it necessary for you to be such a total hypocrite? Seriously.

actually, considering the 50 mile an hour wind gusts yesterday, I feel like it was Reid and Mahomes' most efficient, situationally aware game of the season.

And I'm hypercritical of the coach. We went max protect and didn't try to go bombs away, it was just methodical and efficient. Getting first downs and running clock in the 4th. The fact that the defense is playing better allows that kind of efficiency to be even more effective.

No question the KC D has improved. Couple that with our very average O I don't see us scoring a lot of points. Maybe in the low/mid 20s.

You guys have the talent to score enough with wind, snow or rain.

Houston has to play the Tits twice. Either - or both - could be a loss.

KC's defense isn't great. And I doubt they win the SB. But the Texans defense sucked too. And this offense did squat. So yeah. Your darn right I hate our chances against the best QB, TE, and receiver in the league. And it has nothing to do with our defense. It's because the offense can't sustain drives. Which in turn tires our defense out. With the way our offense has played, we are getting the wrong team. At the wrong time. If that makes me a crap fan. So be it. I call it like I see it. Not everything is rainbows and sunshine. Things won't just magically happen. Thee needs to be personnel changes. Which it's too late in the year to happen.“

How many times have we read this about the chiefs from fans?

It's going to be a good game. I never underestimate Belichick and Brady. But we have a good chance to actually walk in there and win one.

The trick with Belichick is to do enough to win without putting enough on tape for dissection in January. It's a fine line...

Amen.

To beat you guys we need to fully commit to running the football.

The NEP passing game is not consistent enough to be dependable and I think the pass D is a strength of KCs.

It’s crazy to think that if anything our D is now underrated, and our offense overrated. A perfect storm may be brewing where our Offense comes back into 2018 form and our D continues to improve. If that takes place, and it’s completely plausible that it could, there is no limit to what this team can accomplish.

That's why we HAVE to jump out to an early lead and make the Pats offense one dimensional. Make you guys try to beat us with the passing game.

Of course, Brady caught fire at the end of the game last night...one onside kick recovery and things could've been different. The Pats played like an AIDS filled dumpster fire for 55 min last night, then BAM, one score game.

If we win this game, I think we finish 12-4 with at least the 2 seed.

I think the Patriots may lose to the Bills also. Their offense has been horrific against much worse defenses than Buffalo. Bills probably lose to the Ravens though.

I think Houston has at least one more loss in them.

I don’t see Baltimore losing more than 1 more. However, a team built around designed runs for the QB is always vulnerable. One bad hit and their season is over.

I haven't read this whole thread so someone fill me in if I missed it. But please tell me Spags paid attention to Houston's game plan. They doubled Edelman and put a CB on White. Brady was lost without those two.
