[JaxBill]

@JohnOehser: Just announced heat index at 107. #Jaguars

 

[JaxBill]

@phillip_heilman: Patriots win toss, choose to receive. Surprising.

Holy...

 

[JaxBill]

Patriots with a couple first downs.  Jags get a couple shots in on Brady.  Long Gostkowski FG pushed right.

 

[JaxBill]

Dede has ball punched out and it hops right to Chark who gets the first down.

 

[JaxBill]

Pats DL Trey Flowers down. Concussion??

 

[boilerdave]

As a Colts fan a Patriots win would be most beneficial.

As a Colts fan I can't make myself root for the Patriots to win.

 

[JaxBill]

Jags LT Cam Robinson leaves with lower leg injury

 

[JaxBill]

Moncrief with great catch on corner fade. Not so great celebration 

 

[Hilts]

C'mon, Brady, just throw a million passes to Gronkowski!

 

[East Coast Bias]

Nice catch.

 

[heckmanm]

Hfs that catch

 

[gianmarco]

That. Was. Filthy.

 

[JaxBill]

Keelan!!

 

[Cowboysfan8]

C'mon, Brady, just throw a million passes to White!

Fixed

What a catch by Cole wow 

 

[[scooter]]

Welcome to the NFL, Cole.

 

[Hilts]

That was a phenomenal catch by Cole. Good lord. That's rightfully going to be on all the highlight reels.

 

[East Coast Bias]

Cole catch. First link I found. Now he just got a TD.

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Hecker FG

THAT HELPS NOONE!!

 

[Arodin]

Hecker FG

THAT HELPS NOONE!!

Actually I'm playing against Hekker in one league.  He already has monster points for his opening 60-yard punt; now he might beat me with a decent FG performance.

 

[Hilts]

Kind of shocking to see Jacksonville dominating by so much, so early. 14-0 before the end of the first quarter? Wow.

 

[heckmanm]

Dish red zone guy just joked that Hekker has been offered a lifetime contract by the Vikings and Browns

 

[Daywalker]

Can T-mobile and Fedex stop taking credit for good deeds other people are doing.  

 

[JaxBill]

Any chance Belichick going for it on 4th and 2???

 

[JaxBill]

Nope

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Oof.  Sorry 

 

[JaxBill]

Both coaches trying to pin the other deep.

 

[JaxBill]

Jags DL pushing pocket back rushing 4. A lot of zone behind it. Jack seems to be shadowing Gronk though.

 

[JaxBill]

And a personal foul for tacklng the receiver

 

[Mister CIA]

NFL rules are about to lead me to find a better way to spend my Sunday afternoons.

 

[JaxBill]

Long time consuming drive ends in a Gostkowski FG

 

[-OZ-]

Kind of shocking to see Jacksonville dominating by so much, so early. 14-0 before the end of the first quarter? Wow.

It's early but I really do think we're seeing a changing of the guard here. Pats are still playoff bound but the jags are damn good.

We're in Jason's Good Place.

 

[Hov34]

How the #### are you supposed to tackle anyone in the NFL.

 

[JaxBill]

Bortles scrambles,  late slide, big hit, zero laundry 

 

[JaxBill]

I loved the heart that Marcedes brought but ASJ is so much more athletic.

 

[Hu-Tang Clan]

How the #### are you supposed to tackle anyone in the NFL.

With your head up.

 

[JaxBill]

I loved the heart that Marcedes brought but ASJ is so much more athletic.

Ahem

 

[Hilts]

Wow. Patriots being utterly destroyed. 21-3 at halftime.

 

[Mr. Brownstone]

It's so hot. It's so worth it.

 

[JaxBill]

Pats came in with game plan of making Bortles beat them. Jags have been throwing underneath and along sidelines. Interested to see if Pats change things up

 

[Workhorse]

Clear pick play by Westbrook uncalled.  Oh well. Not expecting much on a game played on the surface of the sun.

 

[ShamrockPride]

Cole with 105 yards 35 mins into the game.

 

[JaxBill]

Noncall on red zone PI leads to Jags FG after time consuming drive

 

[JaxBill]

Pats defense looked tired last drive. Jags need another 7 minute drive.

 

[Tool]

Bortles having a great game.

 

[JaxBill]

And like that, a Chark fumble gives Pats good field position.

 

[Peak]

Need a Gronk TD here. Or at least some yardage. Something for the effort.
