True, and you would think all teams better at home. But, look who KC played at home.

Look at the QBs they faced and how much those offenses lacked dynamics compared to what NE;'s offense looks like.

Quite a bit of dead weight defensively is either gone or back to their normal spots as depth compared to that game, so we may be able to defend it a bit better. Justin Houston is healthy this time around so that should give us a major boost and scrubs like Parker, Shaw, and Terrance Smith have been cut or placed on IR.

Sweet analysis.

Compared to what the Patriots offense looks like on the road?

Andy Reid on average scores 34 points against Bill Belicheck. I'm quite sure we'll find a way to score.
[Reply]

Here's some anal-ysis for you, bucko.

The Patriots have done nothing but get buttfucked by Andy Reid offenses since 2014.

Why will Sunday be any different?

At the same time, Michel is rolling, Gronk is healthier, Burkhead has returned, Gordon is gone and Dorsett has stepped up and NE has found more of an identity on offense, that they have been resisting all year.

I would almost throw out what happened in October, even if some of the matchups are somewhat similar.

NE is running their offense more like an offense that subdues edge rushers.

This is 2004 Pats on offense, which is fine by me.

I know for a fact reading comprehension is piss poor in NE, cuz everyone already talks like they have a fucking speech impediment. Guess what dumb fuck? This game will be played in Arrowhead. Your team choked away the #1 seed on a warm day in Miami, against a team who had nothing to play for lmao! Your road record against non playoff teams this year is bad. Now you get to come to the loudest stadium, against the number one pass rush in the league, and the number 3 offense OF ALL TIME!
You’ve had a very impressive run, but it ends at the hands of the MVP, and Wally on Sunday. Get ready for mediocrity, cuz it’s right around the corner!

Gronkowski has done damn near nothing as a receiving threat for a month. White, Michel, and Burkhead is a solid RB core but only 1 guy is going to get the ball at a time.
[Reply]

Gronk of the one catch div playoffs fame.

He's washed up.

Burkhead and Dorsett are street trash. Who cares.

We just shut down TY Hilton and Eric Ebron.

Brady is going to need a fountain of youth.
[Reply]

I can tell you right now, that Brady looked like awful Brady all of the season, in particular in the red zone, losing those games on offense.

But, something happened in the last 2-3 games where Brady and Gronk have been sold on the run game.

He's not going out there trying to throw first at 50+ times per game.

Since the last few games, it's clear their mentality has changed. There were also numerous moving parts and a sluggish start for the offense in general.

I would throw that out the window on SUnday. It won't mean jack squat to this team.

If you load up the box, Brady will check out of the run with a quick pass and/or use playaction to offset the rush.
[Reply]

Andrew Luck looked like a COlts QB in cold weather. Did you just compare the pansy COlts outdoors to Brady and the Pats?

Also, be careful with what you wish for talking about Burkhead and DOrsett as "street trash".

Dorsett is better than Sammy Watkins. Yes, you took out Ebron with a double team and Luck's arm looked like a noodle. Also, Hilton was hurt. Everyone shuts him down when he's hurt, which he is a lot. Pats always took him out in the past and still do.
[Reply]

It doesn't matter. They won a SB without Gronk in 2016.

Amendola would be the lone key guy who is not here, but NE has Dorsett who has been good and clutch since Gordon has been gone and Brady has wisely gone back to spreading the ball around as opposed to staring down Edelman/Gronk or Gordon over and over.

I am telling you right now, Brady is very dangerous here with his ego checked at the door.

BB must have had a sit down to show him how bad his QB play has been at times during the year.

But, there has been no sign of that for weeks.

And, NE has a better run game than they did in 2016. Blount was ok, and a good power runner at the goal line, but Develin and Michel make a nice 1-2 punch and NE might have the best RB group overall from 1-4 in the AFC.

You best hope your LBs can cover.
[Reply]

Here we go....

Dude, look at your avatar and then try to sell the board you have more intelligence than I do. lol

NE never plays well in Miami.

The Pats don't care where this game is played. They haven't been an underdog in years and will play free and easy thinking about cocky people like you while doing it. bahwahah

Do you realize how many times the Pats and their fans have heard the rhetoric you're spouting off right now? If you keep seeking for things that don't matter on Sunday, your team is going to lose.

Should be a good game, but some of your cockiness is over the top in here.
[Reply]

It sounds like the Patriots have been holding back against the Chiefs offense for years now in anticipation for this game. They are happy to get rolled every time right? October doesn’t matter! Road performance doesn’t matter! So much wishful thinking. Any patriots fan thinking about stopping the Chiefs offense is just wasting their time. They aren’t winning this game in the 20’s no matter how much anyone wants that to be true. But I understand convincing yourselves that the Patriots can stop the offense makes you feel better because you know they aren’t scoring a lot in this game on the road.
