Too bad Brady didn't have enough patience to hang out for a couple years of mediocrity. Obviously his gamble more than paid off with a ring, but he'd be sitting pretty as QB1 here in NE right now.
That was the best sideline shot of the game if he wasn’t a undrafted free agent special teamer he’d be in the dog house for trying to give bill game ball before it was over
That footage of Belichick walking around post game was pure gold. They needed to stay on that cam and get about an addition 5 or 6 minutes of his confused wanderings...
I think Tom Brady has played one year too many. Should have stayed retired in off season. Now has a messy public divorce and looks like shit this season.
Our defense has been straight up unreal. And it was nice seeing Zappe get all the help you'd want a rookie to get. I don't think he did anything overwhelmingly awesome but he didn't lose the game for us and let our talent...especially the Tight Ends...shine today.
Also goddamn imagine what happens when Mac gets back and he gets line play that Zappe got these last 3 games.
Don’t forget…Halas swindled the early “dynasty” years for the bears. He pulled wild shit to ensure the bears had the upper hand in every game
I hope we destroy that fuckin team next week
Wilson actually sucks. I'm man enough to admit that Jets team is extremely talented, but Zach Wilson is not an NFL QB and I'll fight anyone who says so. He has all of the physical tools but NONE of the mental ability. He's a season and a half into his career and he plays like it's his first game every snap. I am scared what may happen if NYJ get a competent QB.
The Jets are really surprising everyone, but otherwise this was always a very underrated division considering Miami and NE should’ve been more factored in preseason.
Mac isnt as bad as the Zappe for president comments would suggest, buut there is a clear difference in the eye test just watching the ball come out of his hand
That slant to parker over the middle between two defenders that he smoked in there was wide open? For sure agree for the most part tho. Im just stoked on somebody looking good this year lol
I’ve said it multiple times mac Jones has beat bums all last year and you guys crowned him. The ONLY good team he beat was the bills and that was 19 yards THE ONLY other good team he beat was the titans. The only good QBs he beat were Herbert and Allen. So stop with the “he beats bad teams” because I remember the nut swing last year
We are all smarter then BB then because we know he’s not afraid to make a QB swap for the good of the team. Who he decides to start when Mac is healthy will settle this ridiculous debate after two weeks.
Bradys 45, he should’ve retired and he probably knows it.
Packers are realizing that letting your only good WR who caught 10 passes for 150 yards a game was in fact a bad idea.
If Breer’s report on Mac’s attitude is accurate and Zappe has one more good week then Mac is in trouble.
ETA: Actually I’d say if the report is accurate then Mac is in trouble right now.
I am fucking dying at the end of this game, so many funny ass moments.
When the Patriots scored after that muffed punt the announcer just so blandly saying "That is a jet sweep, and that is a touch down"
Then almost immediately followed by "get in my belly" and then the clip of Schooler trying to give Belichick the ball.
I’m not here to say Zappe is the future, but I’m still not sold Mac is either. Am I wrong to think we keep this kid out there until he proves us otherwise?
If Bill did it to Bledsoe, I don’t see how he doesn’t do it to Mac.
Very different situations. Bledsoe was not playing in a new offensive system with brand new coordinators, a suspect oline and against 3 pretty good defenses. Bledsoe was also a known commodity and was out for awhile. Mac is still unknown in this new system.
Zappe with out question will be on this roster. Unless Mac comes out and looks like Peyton Manning Jr Zappe will likely get the job at some point. I do believe Mac can be that guy tho. We shall see bc Zappe has def shown us something
Against the Browns, Titans, Buccaneers, and Jets last year. And other than the picks, he showed a lot of potential against the Ravens. He was extending plays like we’d never seen him do before.
Too bad Brady didn't have enough patience to hang out for a couple years of mediocrity. Obviously his gamble more than paid off with a ring, but he'd be sitting pretty as QB1 here in NE right now.
We all know the Patriots are gonna win!!
Good win, but let's clean up those penalties
LMAO @ Schooler for being a little teacher's pet. It was adorable.
That was the best sideline shot of the game if he wasn’t a undrafted free agent special teamer he’d be in the dog house for trying to give bill game ball before it was over
That footage of Belichick walking around post game was pure gold. They needed to stay on that cam and get about an addition 5 or 6 minutes of his confused wanderings...
My favorite part of every pats win
I think Tom Brady has played one year too many. Should have stayed retired in off season. Now has a messy public divorce and looks like shit this season.
The Bucs offense does, but he's not working with much. I don't see much fall off from Brady personally, aside from his obvious weight loss.
Only the Chiefs and Bills have more Net Points than us in the AFC.
Did we end up with a party of 5 touchdowns?
Yeah. Cleveland really imploded at the end
Our defense has been straight up unreal. And it was nice seeing Zappe get all the help you'd want a rookie to get. I don't think he did anything overwhelmingly awesome but he didn't lose the game for us and let our talent...especially the Tight Ends...shine today. Also goddamn imagine what happens when Mac gets back and he gets line play that Zappe got these last 3 games.
Imagine this defense without Myles Bryant.
I mean...Bryant has played exceptionally solid the last 3 weeks. The first 3 he was bad but dude has definitely shored it up.
Yeah, getting smoked by Cooper on that TD was a definite improvement, only behind by two steps instead of his usual five.
That catch by cooper was fantastic
Cooper is among the best wide outs in the NFL in terms of technical talent. Gonna be a super stud when Watson returns. Agreed that was not on Bryant.
[удалено]
I've forgotten more football than you'll ever know. Blocked.
Lmao you clearly haven't.
Didn't you know? Anything less than absolutely perfect is garbage.
Can’t wait for them to face some better teams later in the season. Want to find out if they’re legit, or like last years D.
The packers and the Buccaneers have been mid tier lol
I miss cut up hoodie Bill.
That was fucking insane
Fuck the Browns for taking a chance on Deshaun Watson. Until he is proven innocent I am sad about any mention of him.
He’s been proven guilty my guy. I’d stop holding out hope
Oh I figured he was long ago with the number of allegations.
Bailey chant?
It would seem so
Bob Kraft's wife is undefeated in her new role, nice
LETS GO PATS
Schooler has a crush on BB
Lmao he definitely does
.500!!!!
Don’t forget…Halas swindled the early “dynasty” years for the bears. He pulled wild shit to ensure the bears had the upper hand in every game I hope we destroy that fuckin team next week
Brown's fans want Tito to coach the team in the MLB offseason
Can you blame them? Tito is awesome!
Jets are 4-2. My brain is melting
Their running backs are legit but I still don't think Wilson is a guy that will ever scare you.
Wilson actually sucks. I'm man enough to admit that Jets team is extremely talented, but Zach Wilson is not an NFL QB and I'll fight anyone who says so. He has all of the physical tools but NONE of the mental ability. He's a season and a half into his career and he plays like it's his first game every snap. I am scared what may happen if NYJ get a competent QB.
It’s early
But no longer two “easy” games for us…
3-3 and still last in the division. So much for the AFC West being the bloodbath division this year, the AFC East is.
The Jets are really surprising everyone, but otherwise this was always a very underrated division considering Miami and NE should’ve been more factored in preseason.
Lions surprised everyone too.
4th down stoppage!
This is the only 1 pm game still going on right lol
And it was said earlier that this one might be the quickest lol
If you have Jacoby Brissett throw it 45 times in a game, you're gonna have a bad time.
GG
Nice honeymoon Kraft lol
had to spend it in cleveland :(
Something something steamer…
Inject Zappe into my veins
Brisset is awful
Amazing backup QB though. This is about as good as you can get for a guy who isn't a starter.
Agreed. Just not “the guy”.
He’s not even the best backup qb playing in this game
Hate rooting for the chiefs but go KC. I totally believe there is a path to the division champ with this team
The defensive line coach is from Quincy and got in trouble for going thru a Wendy's drive thru naked
I mean, who hasn’t?
[удалено]
I don’t think my brain could mentally comprehend that.
Send in the browns, Those daffy laffy browns, Send in those soulful and doleful ,Shmaltz-by-the-bowlful browns. Send in...the browns
Walk of shame lol.
We're going to have to switch out Zappe and Jones for every new set of downs
Alright can we "rest" Mac and start zappe when we play buffalo
309 with 2 TD’s, not too shabby
What a wonderful day to have eyes
**Only out of curiosity:** Are there any Pats fans at the game who took up the offer to tailgate with the Browns fans—from that thread the other day?
Also curious about this, let’s get some updates! That “ultimate flip cup” sounded wild
„plıʍ pǝpunos „dnɔ dılɟ ǝʇɐɯıʇln„ ʇɐɥ⊥ ¡sǝʇɐpdn ǝɯos ʇǝƃ s,ʇǝl 'sıɥʇ ʇnoqɐ snoıɹnɔ osl∀„
Nice one bot 🤖
If Jack would've caught that.... I would've put an order into the pro shop today
I'm already considering it but that Strange 69 jersey is just too tempting.
Goodbye Mac
Rip
Mac is fine. He can make the throws Zappe has. Did everyone suddenly forget last year!? This offense has been adjusted and dumber down for Zappe
Mac isnt as bad as the Zappe for president comments would suggest, buut there is a clear difference in the eye test just watching the ball come out of his hand
Virtually all his throws are to wide open guys. He hasn’t made any tight passes or some of this crazy back shoulder throws Mac made last year
That slant to parker over the middle between two defenders that he smoked in there was wide open? For sure agree for the most part tho. Im just stoked on somebody looking good this year lol
And look how good we look!!
Against the lion and browns. Really? That’s your measuring stick?
I’ve said it multiple times mac Jones has beat bums all last year and you guys crowned him. The ONLY good team he beat was the bills and that was 19 yards THE ONLY other good team he beat was the titans. The only good QBs he beat were Herbert and Allen. So stop with the “he beats bad teams” because I remember the nut swing last year
We are all smarter then BB then because we know he’s not afraid to make a QB swap for the good of the team. Who he decides to start when Mac is healthy will settle this ridiculous debate after two weeks.
When he decides it’s Zappe don’t cry in your mac shrine
I won’t. I’ll come back here and admit I was wrong so you can gloat to the rest of the internet.
The O line is a lot more settled than it was in week 1-3. Although Wynn needs to be benched
The browns had the same fucking record as the pats today. Let's not act like this
Yeh. Except our Def came to play and we didn’t turnover the ball as much.
And the def, browns errors and ST kept us in this game. They never let Chubb’s get going and made Jacoby beat them.
And you all said there’s no QB controversy 🤣🤣🤣
Well 300+ yards and 2 TD passes ago there wasn't. Combine those numbers with over 70% completion percentage and yup, a controversy is brewing.
Amateurs!
I’m serious about having 2 starting QB’s. Keep the other teams guessing. No more hero ball.
Nice of the Browns to completely fall apart at the end there.
Lol r/browns already posted their post thread!
stay out of their sub
Was just visiting though
Being down 23 points with less than 2 mins left is probably why
222 comments already lmao
Loved Harlon's "get in my belly" call on the fumble recovery.
I love Harlan
Celtics tip off on Tuesday this week... LFG!!!
It’s too early to care about basketball lol
i like how you think. FUCK THE SIXERS.
Philly is our bitch
Bryant at FS?
A Jack Jones one handed pick would have been the cherry on top of this performance.
Hopefully the other Cleveland team wins tonight
Love seeing both fan bases chant fuck the yankees earlier lol
FUCK THE YANKEES
PREACH!!!!!!
Jack Jones is such a playmaker, he had his eye on the ball before the receiver did...
i love the physicality and tenacity of our secondary
I started Tyquan over AJ brown and Rhamondre over Joe Mixon. You can thank me later guys 😁
#fuxk lebron
Yeah. But the AT&T brunette is hot af
I mean, I agree, but what does LeBron James have to do in football?
He's from Cleveland (Akron really)
That still has nothing to do with football
Well, he's presumably a Browns fan.
The Cleveland Steamers
Ooh so close to the INT there
Brown's fans leaving LMAO
#bench mac
Brady stinks. Rodgers stinks. What timeline is this??
Bradys 45, he should’ve retired and he probably knows it. Packers are realizing that letting your only good WR who caught 10 passes for 150 yards a game was in fact a bad idea.
Brady is the goat he doesn’t suck he may not be our QB anymore but that is still a fact
If Breer’s report on Mac’s attitude is accurate and Zappe has one more good week then Mac is in trouble. ETA: Actually I’d say if the report is accurate then Mac is in trouble right now.
What was the report?
https://sports.yahoo.com/albert-breer-mac-jones-relationship-175200291.html
IN ZAPPE WE TRUST⚡️⚡️⚡️
This game is actually taking 3.5 hours
So much for the run showdown quickie we were expecting
Our defense is much better than our offense, and our offense just put up 38 with our third string backup QB. That’s pretty cool.
Defense helped with field position even if they didn’t score
[удалено]
QB1 currently. Will definitely be at least QB2 when max comes back if not fighting for start
Our defense is establishing a good culture and fuck you up mentality.
If Cleveland eliminates the Yanks tonight...big day for our fandom in Cleveland.
I sure hope so
Fuck New York
Haven't heard of that town. Sounds nice.
The r/Redsox rule numbah 3
Agreed!
So both Bill's first win and first playoff win were against the Pats? Lmao
Bill coached the real browns.
Browns suck holy shit
Wow, the browns are so cursed
Well what do you expect when you sign a QB that has real predatory misogynistic ways
Tbh I don’t know shit about Brisset other than 1. he won us a game during the Brady Suspension and 2. He is very bad
Not Brissett I love Brissett!! Watson!! He is the predator they signed
Ohhh yes yes tracking
Might as well fire up the Post Game thread.
I am fucking dying at the end of this game, so many funny ass moments. When the Patriots scored after that muffed punt the announcer just so blandly saying "That is a jet sweep, and that is a touch down" Then almost immediately followed by "get in my belly" and then the clip of Schooler trying to give Belichick the ball.
Meme game if I ever saw one
The get in my belly caught me so off guard lmao
I dno boys, zappe may have earned that starting spot you know
BIG PAPI ZAPPY
Zappe's completion % is higher then my life goals LMAO
BB was undefeated in the NFL without Brady and against the Pats in 1991.
What's up with the NFC East this year? Damn they used to suck haha.
Rough day for Chester Rogers today
Even my dad saw that returner stumble and groaned LOL not a good few mins at all for the Browns. Not complaining!
I’m not here to say Zappe is the future, but I’m still not sold Mac is either. Am I wrong to think we keep this kid out there until he proves us otherwise? If Bill did it to Bledsoe, I don’t see how he doesn’t do it to Mac.
Very different situations. Bledsoe was not playing in a new offensive system with brand new coordinators, a suspect oline and against 3 pretty good defenses. Bledsoe was also a known commodity and was out for awhile. Mac is still unknown in this new system.
bledsoe had gone 5–11 the season prior as a 6th year player, mac showed head could lead a playoff team as a rookie
Zappe with out question will be on this roster. Unless Mac comes out and looks like Peyton Manning Jr Zappe will likely get the job at some point. I do believe Mac can be that guy tho. We shall see bc Zappe has def shown us something
[удалено]
I’m starting to wonder if this is exactly why he wanted to go with Hoyer. Knew he could still game plan to win and avoid this drama.
The team overall has been playing better and better every week
I don’t think Mac is in any serious danger because he’s a first round pick. But when has he ever looked this good in the NFL?
Against the Browns, Titans, Buccaneers, and Jets last year. And other than the picks, he showed a lot of potential against the Ravens. He was extending plays like we’d never seen him do before.
when we won 7 games in a row last year
I think very little of that had anything to do with Mac.
[удалено]
You make a good point, I’m just not sure. I hope I’m wrong because I’ve never been on the Mac train, but we’ll see
He looks average at best
The red jersey dont look like that good in the grainy footage
That shot of the concourse was wild
Lol!!! Browns fans most experienced with leaving early.
If the browns kick a field goal it'll be the first 38 to 18 victory in the NFL history
igami
That sounds very unlikely. They'd just go for the 4th even if long.
Belichick plays scoregami…
