After the Gostkowski miss, I assumed it really was one of those games. The game isn't over, but this defense needs to force a turnover to give us a short field or something.

Better to have a game like this now instead of the last 3 weeks.

Gonna watch The Pats & then probably take a refreshing Sunday afternoon nap through the Red Sox game.
(even though i counter-intuitively feel the sox may win today)

I doubt the Sox are playing today. Could be good, assuming Porcello was projected to be tomorrow's starter.

But I feel you, Sox look as good as done.

This defense worries me

 

[rolaholic]

I still like the front seven but man that secondary...swiss cheese 

. Is the dude from Philly they traded for healthy?

 @MikeReiss: On the sideline, defensive coordinator Matt Patricia is huddled with the team's defensive backs. Working through some coverage issues.

Good 

 

 

[DeadsetAce]

yeah. Beardy needs to fix this defense


glad Brady found Bennett. want to keep Marty happy. lot of mouths to feed on this offense

 

[7th Chamber]

Glad Bennett is ok as well. This offense looks like it's supposed to look finally.

Looks like Patricia's talk might have worked

 

[7th Chamber]

Gostkowski is officially worrying me.

 

[green rhino123]

fg pretty much seals it for today with a full 8min left
good game browns

on to next week!

same here. dude is shaky.


something i was reading was saying the new kickoff rules and Bill asking him to kick it short on kickoffs is effing with his mechanics. could be something

 

[getback]

Hogan took some heavy slams

 

[DeadsetAce]

Hogan took some heavy slams :x

bruh i was SURE he was concussed after the first one. but came back, got dropped AGAIN. this time i'm like, alright he's gonna be in CP for a couple weeks. gotta be. nope...passes CP testing and is back out on the field again

between that and Edelman in the Superbowl, we GOTTA be ignoring CP testing on our sideline

malcolm butler has definitely had a down year this year so far compared to last year. was listening to the radio and this was again brought up (something we've discussed in here before a couple times). the defensive coaching our CBs receive has time and again led to a decline in play. devin mccourty. logan ryan. and now butler. all came in and BALLED their first year as starter. their play quickly declined the next year. it has to be the coaching they're getting from Beardy. something he's doing is just getting these guys off their game. that instinctive play in their first year is replaced with something like almost being coached up too much and asking them to do too much. i hope butler can get back on track. let him just play man and not think too much.
