Of course every team has its own uniqueness in of itself.
Point is, Mr Weatherman, the Patriots cornerbacks won't be able to keep up with Tyreek Hill's speed. Or if you look at all the chiefs receivers, Watkins is the shortest a 6'1. All the Chiefs receivers including Kelce are at least 6'3. Mahomes is great at playing jump ball out of the pocket. Your DB's have repeatedly showed they lose jump balls. Just look at the games the Patriots have lost. Jump balls killed you guys.

Wait, if Brady's a virgin, whose son is he kissing?? [Reply]

I'm always suspicious when you get a one day extreme dip in the weather like originally projected. At least where I live, it always ends up smoothing out. [Reply]

There's still going to be a dip, they've just moved the timeline up 12-18 hours. Snow has been moved into Thursday too. [Reply]

Not that the officiating this season hasn't been particularly atrocious, but yeah, I think you got away with a few drive-stopping no calls. Reid's been around long enough to know they only call one out every five violations, and, I suspect, coaches them up that way.
BTW, I think ALL teams get away with too much holding, tugging, mugging in today's NFL, including NE, but the Chiefs got away with more than their fair share.
I went back and watch those and on several of ones that looked iffy - Ward made a textbook over the back block w/o grasping or turning the receiver. Ol Cletus better not be calling those DPI this week.
I've watched the game 3x now and, at least on the TV replay, I haven't seen one case where the Chiefs clearly got away with one. Dipshit pundits are just saying this stuff because we're usually so penalized in the secondary and didn't get one on Saturday. [Reply]

I made sense what they were calling. It was going to get to -5 on Saturday night and all the clouds were clearing out which would release any trapped heat thus making it frigid on Sunday. [Reply]

Yeah and that's all happening earlier now. The clear out will likely be during the day on Saturday, resulting in a much more even temperature over the entire weekend. [Reply]
The entire Patriots team has serious Mahomes envy. They've had it since week 6, when, even in a losing effort and his worst half of the season, Mahomes completely stole the show.
It will only get worse when they get blown out, then fail to defeat the Chiefs in every subsequent year. [Reply]
The warmer it is the louder it will be. If it's 20 degrees at game time the place will be deafening. If we luck out and somehow it's in the upper 20's ...I can't even imagine [Reply]
If he ran 100yds 65 times thats (3ft per yard / 5288 ft) = 3.68 miles.
All that said I think there is some truth to this. Playing Man/Man 100% of the time is not realistic. Guys would get gassed- especially chasing Hill around the block. That might have been Bill's thinking in going to zone 2nd 1/2. Who knows.
I think my point with the graphic was the Pats are a good man team.
I expect Bill & Flo to play mostly man and match zone Sunday. Change it up and keep guys from getting gassed in Q4 [Reply]
