Would you prefer Alex take 8 minutes and still ****ing punt Smith? Mahoney is like the last of our problems. Sutton should be brought before the guillotine.

This is one of the dumbest takes I have ever heard.
If all you need is a field goal to take the lead, then yes, you can and should try to work the clock once you get into comfortable range. If you need a TD, you score whenever you can. There is no guarantee you can burn clock and still get in the endzone. |

Complaining about an offense scoring to fast. I hear there is a QB for the Redskins that likes to take 10 minutes to score 3 points if you are interested.

Running the clock down to win the game isn’t Alex Smith taking 10 mins. JFC posters here refuse to admit Pat can get better at certain things and equate everything back to Alex.
3:26 with 68 yards to go. That’s on Andy for not setting up a few screens or god forbid run the ball once or twice. We need to understand the situation and play to it, but we didn’t. That is what makes Brady so good. He is methodical when he needs to be and understands the chess game. Like it or not Pat can learn a lot from this year, mostly that he can sometimes take a checkdown every once and awhile that the defense is begging him to take instead of throwing deep passes 95% of the time. He can run 5 yards sometimes on first down when nobody is around him. That doesn’t mean he is Alex at all. It means he’s like Brees, Brady, Manning and the rest of the great QB’s. I’m not blaming anything on the kid. That’s just who he is right now and it will take time. But I suspect he will be more patient as he grows with experience.

If Wally had run the ball, people would be screaming that he didn't "put the game in Mahomes' hands!!". You know this. FAX |

Yeah, that would have been great to run the clock to well under 2 mins, but I'm convinced the Patriots would have scored a TD with a minute left.

Complaining about Mahomes being too good at what he does. Wow, this is an awful thread.

I called out this same thing after the first Patriots game. How do the Patriots always win, look at their Superbowls and look at the regular season. They have the ball last. I know we can score fast on the big chunk plays. We can come back like no one else in the league. But you have to be able to drain the clock and give another team no time to get back in it. I called it during the drive in the first Patriots game when Tyreek scored fast, I called it during the Rams game at the end, and I called it during this game. You can't give good teams the ball back with time left. It's the difference between winning and losing when you play the good team. Of course we can point to the defense, and we should, but how many Patriots Superbowls were won by one score or less? It's what Brady and Belichick are masters at and if we don't figure that out, we'll have more seasons end like this. Finish the game, you should never have to rely on your defense to do that for you.

What sort of dumbassery says Mahomes is inexperienced so he throws long passes. WTF is up with that? We have not had a QB since forever who threw more than 2-3 deep downfield passes in a game......I suppose we can assume they didn't throw deep cause they had excellent experience? Sports Radio brings some real intellect to the surface.

Hold on a second.
You do realize they went scoreless in the first half, right? And you realize they were facing Belichick? You also realize that the O-line was getting their asses handed to them most of the night? How in the hell does that add up to "let's take all the time off the clock because we know we're going to score?" |
