GAME 1 Has Arrived: The New England Patriots Vs. The Kansas City Chiefs (1 Viewer)

[msudaisy26]

A score like that (or Hunt's, in reality) is simply deflating, even though the Pats have a chance to tie.

Sealing a game is more than just mathematical. The NFL game is one of momentum.

wut?

 

[Rhythmdoctor]

GRONK time.

 

[travdogg]

AT 8, every ounce of the pressure is on the other team. WHy take any of that pressure on yourself to make the 2? It's 50-50 for any 2 point conversion. When given the option to take the pressure or give it, generally you wanna give it.

IN the end, I don't think it's a really big deal either way, certainly NOT a no-brainer.

That's fair, just feel like against New England, its likely a lot better than 50-50 that they would convert. Just sorta feel like I've seen that movie before.

That looked like when DJ tore his Achilles...I hope not, he is the heart and soul of the team

 

[Stompin' Tom Connors]

Why in the world is Hill returning kicks if he's their WR1?

Didn't he have 900+ yards and 3 TDs returning punts and kicks last year? That's why.

 

[The Frankman]

FUUUUU Achilles injury

 

[NutterButter]

Winning @ Foxboro. AKA the hardest thing to do in the NFL, really. I guess he knows what he's doing and we don't? 

As for Hill, he no longer returns kicks, just punts. Doesn't Antonio Brown and others do that as well? And Hill is a zillion times better at it than him and anyone else, too. You have to give him those touches. It's bad enough he can't return kicks too. 

yes. i heard once or twice that special teams are a third of the game, but i might have been drunk.

 

[bicycle_seat_sniffer]

Berry popped his a chilles I bet

 

[need2know]

Damn Eric berry

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

That was some sweet DB play.

 

[Bigboy10182000]

I hate injuries. 

 

[The Jacket]

Great play 39. Credit the kid for sticking in there. 

Brady just heaving it up and PRAYING for a penalty to save them (again).

 

[NutterButter]

Sucks for Berry.   He's an elite talent.

 

[Stompin' Tom Connors]

Becoming a war of attrition.

ETA: Me and Al are totally aligned.

 

[need2know]

I don't see how ne comes back from this

 

[TheCommish]

Oh

my

goodness

 

[renesauz]

Holy poop batman

 

[Insein]

Bah Hunt doesn't have break away speed

 

[The Jacket]

Hopefully just a bunch of week 1 tight muscles or whatever. 

It's one thing to lose Jack and Jill, but Hill, Berry, Peters, we're talking KC's best players here. Come on. 

 

[Workhorse]

Wow. 

 

[FishTacoTuesday]

Pats defense looks like every Saints defense ever. 

 

[Stompin' Tom Connors]

There's your Charck Week gift!

 

[need2know]

Ne def is just getting run over

 

[Grigs Allmoon]

I hate injuries. 

No doubt... Maybe actually practicing/playing a bit in the preseason would help get in shape to avoid these non-contact injurues. 

 

[ffldrew]

Vulture time for West

 

[The Frankman]

THE CHARCNADO!!!!!!

 

[need2know]

Ugh 

 

[renesauz]

Lol...thanks Andy...one of my survivors appreciates the West TD

 

[Mister CIA]

Charvulture.

 

[Insein]

### ####. I was thinking in the first half that NE defense was letting up a lot of rushing yards but damn.

 

[NutterButter]

go for 2 Reid

 

[Buffaloes]

that guy who wanted Charc  to get his...boom

 

[Nugget]

Boom!

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Ask an old-timer to tell you about the days when the Patriots were good some time.

 

[Bigboy10182000]

Never saw this coming. 

 

[The Jacket]

Jesus. What a turnaround after the first 2 drives. 

 

[Todem]

Wait a second.....whats all this 18-0 talk???

 

[hagmania]

There's that Charcandrick TD

 

[ffldrew]

239 from scrimmage for Hunt

 

[msudaisy26]

That SEALED it!

 

[oswizzle]

its official .. NE def Sucks Balls.... Hunt will  never see a game like this again... WEST just moon walked that in ...

 

[Joe Summer]

Alex Smith, #1 waiver wire pickup this week?

 

[need2know]

Kc o line killing it

 

[BassNBrew]

Bah Hunt doesn't have break away speed

He does, just tired from running 26.2 miles tonight.

 

[Grigs Allmoon]

Should have been a holding on that TD play.

 

[Insein]

Brady garbage time points

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

239 from scrimmage for Hunt

 

 

[FishTacoTuesday]

Workhorse and Tom still don't understand it. 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

God, I felt that hit on Lewis through my television. 

 

[Workhorse]

Cmon Cooks. Let's get some garbage time points.
