I think Yips (since concussion) + Troy may have been on something (CJ hand injured)... pretty sure it will come out in post game or in off-season. But you could see the fear in his eyes in the pocket... never a good look. Need to bring Case back in QB room
If Stroud can’t get it done against this defense then I just throw my hands up. Hes just mentally weak. Hes not good enough when it matters. All he had to do today was not make catastrophic mistakes, and we win the game. Defensively, we played alright, but we didn’t get jump on several of those fumbles. Maye is good but they made a few plays on offense, but the game was completely there for the taking. I think even with a backup QB Denver is going to overwhelm the patriots offense. I would not be shocked to see 8-10 sacks and multiple turnovers. I don’t think Denver is done. Demeco, what the actual **** are you doing punting on 4th down with 4 mins left down 12 with 1 timeout. What the actual ****. I don’t care if it’s 4th and 80, you HAVE to go for it there. What a complete hack job. Then you follow that up by burning your last timeout with just under 4 mins on 2nd and 1. Absolute masterclass in how not to conduct game management. vrabel is a complete choed. I didn’t think it was possible to have a more hated NE coach than belichik but it only took him 1 season. Mount Rushmore of most punchable faces. This offseason we need to throw the book at RB and TE. It’s completely inexcusable to go into the season without a competent running game. But ultimately, unless everything breaks just perfectly, we continue to have a historic defense, and we run through the regular season and clinch the number 1 seed, CJ isn’t going to get it done. I’m convinced he’s not capable unless his surroundings are absolutely ****ing perfect. He doesn’t elevate his play when it matters. He’s ****ing mentally soft. He sucks in cold weather even though he played at Ohio State? Go ****ing figure that out. What a catastrophic performance by him. Andy Dalton at 40 years old wins this game. Im so mad my blood is boiling.
Remove CJ from the equation and we probably win the game. He just had quite literally the most detrimental postseason by an NFL QB in the history of the league. I know you love him, but he was beyond pathetic.
You can’t judge Caley from today’s game. Guys were open. CJ just wasn’t even remotely on planet earth throwing the ball. Couldn’t run it either. Just all a big yikes.
Not even just that, no QB in NFL history has EVER thrown 5+ interceptions and fumbled the ball 5 times in a single postseason run....and CJ just did that **** in 2 games.
Whoever the QB coach is on the team, get rid of him. Go see if keenum is interested in being a QB coach.
Kyler Murray and Dak Prescott would be some good comparisons to me. Oops I thought I was quoting another post. My bad.
