Pats fan. The Jets outplayed NE for most of the game and should have won. If Hill doesn't drop the gimme, they run down the clock and it's over. My takeaways from this game: - what a different team NY is with a healthy Keller - Sanchez is very very good at times, but then makes real bad mistakes that a 4th year guy shouldn't be making - NE's pass D is beyond bad, it's laughable. They've had a couple of injuries at safety, but I don't know how they fix it
Who do you suggest starts for us then? Holy shit some people on this site cry like little babies. How old are you?
Nice post pats fan. We beat maimi earlier this year but came home feeling like we got our asses kicked. we took the W, but didn't feel real good about our team at that point. Coaches will point to the score board, but the players know. How do you think the Pats will do in NY Thanksgiving night? Will the Pats play with supreme confidence or try to hold on for the last second win?
i think the pats deserved to win. they were down 3 with under a minute left, then: - drove down field for the game tying field goal - drove down field in OT for the go ahead score - stopped the jets to seal it jets played well, did great to come back and take the lead. but pats did what it took to win
Thank you classy Pats fan Thanks for showing the douche side of NY. @Murder - There is no QB on our roster that will outplay Sanchez for 60 minutes a week. Maybe for a 15 minute stretch, or a single drive. Maybe in situation A, Tebow or McElway will play better than Sanchez, but not the whole game.
Right now the Patriots are surviving week to week, and beating St Louis next week will be an achievement (we're 0-2 against the NFC West so far). The Jets seem to be improving, adjusting to the injuries they've had. Their WR's and DB's look good so losing Holmes and Revis doesn't look as bad as it did a couple of weeks ago.
It was a lousy game between two bad teams. Neither is going anywhere this season without a huge improvement. For all the justifiable griping Jets fans are doing about the playcalling, what do Pats fans think about the Pat's offensive playcalling? Why weren't the Pats running the ball down the Jets throat, where they've been the most vulnerable? Why play into the strength of the Jets defense?
The Jets are playing week to week as well. We're still trying to figure out how to use Tebow. Sanchez is still trying to figure out when to throw the ball away. The Coaching Staff is still trying to figure out when to attack a team on both sides of the ball and when to play it safe. A better coached Jets team wins yesterday's game. The Pats did everything they could to hand the game to us and we snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. Its not like either team is flawless.
True, NE played great after Hill's drop. But if he doesn't drop it, they'd have never had those opportunities, game is over.
If McElroy played the whole game, the offense takes a step back, he probably throws a pick six or two and the Pats end up winning something like 37-6... If Tebow played the whole game, the offense struggles to move the football but doesn't make mistakes and the Pats end up winning something like 23-10.. I know the Jets lost either way, but that doesn't change the fact that Sanchez is their best option to win, and it showed. 3 things cost them the game- 1.) Hill dropping that pass 2.) Going Conservative after McCourty's fumble 3.) Sanchez's overtime fumble (he should've tucked it in) But that game doesn't get to overtime if Hill doesn't drop that pass, or if Sparano doesn't outsmart himself after the McCourty fumble. But none of that would've mattered if Mac or Tebow played because the game would've been over by the fourth quarter. Stop being stupid.
The game was gift wrapped, with a green ribbon and served on a Jet platter. Had to score on 3 & 1 on the goal line. Had to catch that pass by Hill Had hit the WIDE OPEN Hill standing in the end zone. Had to have Cro intercept that pass to Gronk Same old song and dance.
They probably would have held the Jets to a FG, but there would have been no time left for NE to drive the field for the tying FG.
we were losing 23-20 when Hill dropped that pass. a FG would have tied it, and with no time left the games would have gone to overtime -- were we ended up losing.
You're right, then. I was thinking the Hill drop was after McCourty's fumble with the score already tied.
Where did you get this from? When have you ever seen either play as the starting QB of the NYJ? I also think we should sign TO and move Hill to slot. That way, Sanchez will no longer have any "excuses", as he'll have TO, Kerley, Hill, Keller, and when he comes back, Holmes.
