    When was the last time they threw on first down? I would have expected that after the long Grimes run.

    On the minus side, FG's aren't going to win this game... on the plus side, its not a blow-out.

    You want to throw it it our midget receiver on a jump ball but not one of the best jump ballers in the game. These ****ers have down syndrome?

    You don't think BB has game planned to specifically nullify Hopkins? He is double covered

    Those last three plays..........man......smh

    The play calling was ....baffling
    If you gonna hurry up after a long run.... I think a pass down field is better
    Than a wildcat run into the line.

    Hoyer just doesn't utilize Hopkins well at all. He makes it easy for the other team to take Hopkins out of the game by being to afraid to throw it to him.

    No way you beat Brady settling for field goals.

    This defense has to get physical.

    Hoyer ain't throwing toward Hopkins.

    Grow some balls and throw it to him.

    Except that Nate was ridiuclosy covered on that play and Hoyer still three it to him. Was Hopkins any more covered?

    Yes, he is, but they're also blanketing him with safety help over the top. It's what most teams have been doing lately.

    You need to be able to take that top off the defense with other players in order to draw that safety off Hopkins and back to the middle of the field. Its what we're trying to do by going to Washington. I have no problem with it. Good chess match. These guys are obviously familiar with each other.

    Patriots exploiting the up the middle run game... something that has plagued this defense since the Atlanta game.

    Watt is like Shaq. They know he's more physical than anyone holding him, they let **** slide unless it's ridiculous.

    The defense is reacting instead of creating.
