  • Red Sox Predictably Lose To Yankees

    Red Sox predictably bounced early

    Couldn’t hit

    Managed starting pitching like regular season

    Middel relievers blew the game open

    Roman Anthony bails out with “flare up”

    Veterans immediately at odds with management

    -          Sonny Gray and Contrares say the Red Sox are too reliant on analytics

    o   Should work well with recently extended chad tracy

    2026 Red Sox success was as lucky as a baseball team can get. Top moves from Breslow include Gray, Contreras, firing Cora, and ousting the bitchy kids Mayer and Anthony.  The large picture plan for the Red Sox did not work.

    Will they learn? Go after your big free agent fast and aggressive. Will it matter with a work stoppage coming because players are stupid and owners are greedy.

    Patriots bounce back vs Bills

    Red Sox predictably bounced

    10 questions

    This or that

    Simplest minds

     

    Welcome

     

    Patriots bounce back vs the Bills

    Patriots 29 – Bills 26

    Starting with Drake Maye

    22/37 – 269 yards – 3 TD – 1 INT – 3 Fumbles, 1 Fumble Lost- 1 Sack – 97.7 rating

    Game winning drive – 1 handed catch from Chissom

    4 min

    Big catch leaping Chissom – Maye late and inaccurate

    On handed catch – 1:50 left in the game

    2 pt conversion scramble pass to Stevenson

    Dumbass INT from Josh Allen

    3rd and ten play action to Henry for 1st down.

     

     

    Bills are stupid and will never win - Allowed Maye to run

    2 big 4th down pick ups

    All 3 TD throw impressive – hate the End Zone fade play. Good throw. Great catch.

    Still not playing in time

    Still shit footwork and inaccurate –

    the INT is on Maye. 16 seconds left  - turfs it.

    Good signs from doubs.

    Chisolm WR 3

    Mack Hollins hurt? That’s a problem for week 5

     

    Offensive line took a step back this game

     

    Defense getting a lot of praise for the game plan bottling up Josh Allen.

    Kinkaid barely played and the Bills ignored James Cook

    Charles Woods sucks – Burnt on Coleman TD in 4th

     

    Vrable got his team to respond. They were the aggressor. 4th downs in the 1st and 3rd quarters. Throwing the ball to ice the game.

     

    How repeatable? Can they build on momentum?

  • Confirmed, Drake Maye Sucks

    Drake Maye sucks

    Patriots 6 – Jaguars 35

    Ball boy fought a Jags player for Travis Hunters’ first career INT

     

    Drake Maye 4-25 199 yards 0 TD 2 Ints 3 Sacks 3 fumbles – 1 lost

    Season: 63.8 CMP% – 585 yards – 1 TD – 6 INT – 9 Sacks – 58.6 rtg

    Bloody fumble – Loser football

    INT in the end zone – Completely lost

    2nd pick – a guy just closing his eyes

     

    The Vrabel effect

    Looked like a team completely unprepared to play

     

    Mis managing a team coming off the superbowl

    Russini drama clearly a distraction

    No preseason snaps for offense with new receiving core.

    -          Loss of Diggs then Brown is huge – what does it say about Maye?

    -          Doubs will be a huge mistake in free agency

    -          Hollins toot toot.

    -          Where is Henry

    -          Pop Douglas toot too

    -          Kyle Williams took the short bus. Does not know where the side line is.

     

    -          This is now on Vrabel to get it turned around. Eyes on him.

     

    Defense Good but susceptible to good game plans

    Little to no play makers – Marcus Jones, Gabe Jacas – end of list

    Baremore has been ok.

    Milton Williams has been quiet

    Gonalez has been solidly elite – not a play maker

    Why is this happening, obviously some are freak injuries but others are just muscle pulls and strains. Is this lack of football in the summer?


    Why is it big news - Las Vegas / fantasy football

  • Pats Head To DUUUVAL

    Pats Travel to the Swamp


    Patriots head on down to Jacksonville to take on the 1-1 Jags. 

    Biggest thing to watch in this game has to be Drake Maye. He hasn’t put up good numbers the first two weeks can he turn it around in Jacksonville?


    How he can do it- Doubs looks to be getting comfortable after his 4 catch 96 yard performance against Pittsburgh. Need to keep that momentum going against 2nd year star Travis hunter who will probably be on him most of the game. Get Doubs involved early to open up other receivers like Hollins, Douglas, and tight end hunter henry. Need to get the passing game clicking on early


    What’s the biggest concern?- protecting Drake Maye. Josh allen and Travon walker will be disruptive all game and need to be cautious with the protection schemes. No time to dance in the pocket need to know where your check downs are and if your first two options aren’t there dump it out. 


    Trevor Lawerence has weapons and for some reason jakobi meyers always lights up his old team. Look for Gonzalez to get his first int of the season this game. 


    Weather is going to be perfect and not a concern. I’ll be there taking in the sites and looking for a patriots 27-17 win in Jacksonville.

  • Patriots Defense Dominates Steelers

    Pats Steelers

    Welcome

    Subscribe rate review 


    Patriots 20 Steelers 3 in what could be described as a frustrating game to watch as a Patriots fan 


    Why?- the patriots offense and Drake Maye don’t look like they are gelling 


    Maye goes 14/22 208 yards 0 tds 1 int and was sacked 3 times. 


    In an offseason that was used to get Drake more weapons and protection, the first two weeks haven’t worked out. 


    Still making bad reads and not looking comfortable in the pocket. 


    Other than the long 63 yard pass to Doubs what really stood out from the passing performance on Sunday?


    Dhamondre is still fumbling. He had his 18th fumble of his career. Lucky that Henderson came back and got the Patriots their lone offensive touchdown of the game. 


    You sit an average nfl down and ask what stood out in this game on the offensive side of the ball they would say, nothing. 


    The good news is the defense looks good. Not saying top 5, just a solid overall unit. They held the Steelers to 235 yards total and got after Aaron Rodger’s. He was sacked 4 times and threw an interception to Gabe Jacas who at training camp seemed to be another failed 2nd round pick but has looked great the 1st two games of the season. 


    Patriots did start off slow last year could this just be how they go since most of the starters didn’t play any preseason games. Could this be a rusty September? In his 7 seasons coaching he’s only had 2 winning records in September, in 2018 and 2020. Other than those two he usually goes 2-2.
