Did you watch the game past Sunday? Running the ball down SDs throat and hitting RBs into the flat against a zone D like yours, that's actually BETTER than yours, has nothing to do with where the game is played.
If Brady gets playaction, your team is in serious trouble.

Thats not what I said. You asked about the Jax game. You need to focus.
They lost those two games because they got outplayed in both. Close games one play either way. [Reply]

Field conditions, weather are not HFA. They are actual game conditions which certainly can impact the outcome of a game.
Brady has shown a decline in performance on the road compared to either at home or at a neutral site, though that’s not unexpected. His completion rate is solid (57 percent) but his 8-to-8 touchdown-to-interception ratio is mediocre and his overall passer rating on the road (75.9) is nowhere close to what we would expect from a five-time Super Bowl champion quarterback who has produced passer ratings of 93.1 at home and 98.0 on neutral fields.

I beg to differ.
Take that up with your fellow Patriot fans. I didn’t make the rules, they did. [Reply]
