Patriots week 1

 This week I would say caught most of America by surprise. We got to see a totally new team take on a supposed titan to take down the chiefs. My hopes for the season are not high. I do not wish to win but if we do I would like at least 7 wins. Reason being I believe that would be a great start to Jerod Mayo coaching career. Mainly because of all the pieces that need to be filled. But if we lose I want to lose and get a top 5 pick in the next draft. We have some good and some great plays that happened in this game.With Brissett returning to the patriots his debuted wasn’t great but it wasn’t horrible. He threw 15/24 for 121 yards.  and made a couple of plays with his feet.I do not expect too much out of brissett this year because he is a bridge a for the moment. He has great morale and leadership skills but I do not see the patriots resigning after drake maye start. Rhamondre Stevenson had a good game 120 yards and a td on 25 carries to start the year. I believe he is going to have a break out year. He is a highly slept on running back in this league partially because our line cannot hold a block for more than 1.2 seconds.

Some people were surprised by our defense but that has been our brand of football since I was born. Last year we did have a good defense but with Mac Jones constantly turning the ball over or not being able to score with great field position takes a toll on the defense. With a new head coach and a new players this defense may be something to look at. They forced 3 fumbles but recovered 2 of them which lead to both field goals. Allowed only  70 rushing yards and 154 yards through the air. Also allowing only 4/11 conversion on 3rd down. 

Next week we play the Seahawks. I expect a great game from our defense but I expect the offense to struggle in 2nd and 4th quarter. I think the score will be a 20-31 Seahawks.

Mid season Recap

 We will not discuss numbers this week because the more I look at them, the more I get irritated. We are through the first half of the season, and we are 2-7. our first win was a fluke. Just as Dr.Strange told Iron Man, he has 1 chance to beat Thanos. We then went on a six-game losing streak consisting of the Jets, Seahawks, 49ers, Dolphins, Texans, and Jaguars. We should have recovered to, at the bare minimum of 3 for these teams. We should have beat the Jets, dolphins, and Jaguars. The Jets are a trash team that we were able to hold in the first half. And then 2nd half came, and we all forgot what a football was. The Dolphins had lost their starting QB to a concussion 2 weeks before playing us. The dolphins and jets are in the same division, meaning they play each other twice yearly. And these games typically help predict who is in the playoffs at the end of the year. Back to my main point, how can we lose to a team that is already bad? Now, take out their starting QB. They are e...

OMG Drake Maye

DRAKE MAYE BABY WOOAAAHHHH. Finally, patriots' fans had some sort of watchable football. I was discussing the game and previous games with my dad. I did not expect to win this game at all. But it was a day for Maye to step up and show us what he can do. And he most definitely did. One thing that has not changed is the play calling. In one of my other post I discuss the type of pass Brisset was making mainly short underneath routes. It was both Brisset and Alex Van Pelt our offensive coordinator. While Maye is a rookie starting in his first game in week 5 he still can throw dimes. His first touchdown pass is what we the patriot fan base been waiting for. A Throw down field. A 40-yard bomb down the sideline for a first time touchdown for both Maye and Boutte in week 5. and then another first-time touchdown to Pop Douglas.  Maye did have a good day. He threw for over 265 yards with 3 passing touchdowns. He had 2 interceptions but if you watched the game, he really only threw one. ...
