Since you believe in these guys much more than me, how much of this do you this do you think carries over to the Colts game?

 

no idea. They showed incremental improvement yesterday and Ward had his best game aside from the fumble. The bar is so low, its hard to not see some improvement which is all anyone is asking for you to admit. There was some  and it was plain to see. Does that mean they are going to score 30 and beat the Colts? highly unlikely

 

Honestly, even with the talent issues, Seeing Helm, Dike, and Ayomanor get the bulk of the reps, Getitng Jefferson more involved, getting reps for latham to see if he work himself back, and of course Ward's development are all things we should want to see.

PK said the Titans should have "honored" Vrabel and he and Buck went to Vrabel's postgame presser instead of the Titans   That's some seriously embarrassing cock gobbling   Honor h

It's panic time for Latham. He's got to improve the rest of the season. As of right now he looks like someone who needs to be replaced

The fact that you keep asking me to "admit" that there was improvement despite me multiple times saying that things looked better early on yesterday indicates to me that you want more than a simple "admit" they looked better. You want me to say that they looked significantly better, that they looked better directly because of the coaching change, and that this improvement is an indication of future improvement. I refuse to go anywhere near that far because I don't believe any of those things are true. I think we did look better and most of it was due to the opposing defense having to adjust to a brand new offensive approach from the one they'd seen on film. Once they adjusted, things didn't look much better than they have all season. Even bad teams can at times and for stretches play above the baseline but inevitably they do return to that baseline. We watched it happen over the course of yesterday's game.  But we'll see shortly who is right. I felt confident the Pats would stomp and despite your refusal to admit it, I was right. I feel confident about this too.

Finally. yes there was incremental improvement, hopefully it is sustainable and the young guys get reps they sorely need. I'm not going to argue with you on the notion the Pats adjusted and shut the offense down in the 2nd half. Simply didn't happen.

I think it’s important to remember Latham did NOT look like this until the hip injury. He was consistently great in training camp (competition level aside) and in joint practices. It’s way too early to throw the towel in on a young offensive lineman like this.

He looked pretty damn bad down the stretch last year.

again, the offense moved the ball consistently on their firs 4 drives, Ward had his best half of the year and they scored 13 points in the 1st half which was just .8 off their game average in 2025. I don't fault the offense for sucking the rest of the game once they were down 18 in 3rd quarter. That means the pats D didn't have to respect the run or Play action and could tee off on Ward which like I said, exposes the main weaknesses of the OFF roster, OL and weapons. 

 

Do I expect the offense to drop 21 points in the 1st half next week against the colts and become a top 15 unit the rest of the year? of course not but for a hald when the full playbook was available to them, they looked better. Why we can't admit that is beyond me...

"We" can't admit that because they didn't win. And when you don't win, everything sucks. Thems the rules for many.

please tell me thats a joke?

 

I was paraphrasing, but that was the thing he led off with. "There's gonna be so many things situationally blah blah blah... I mentioned wind to you..."

 

It's roughly 17 minutes into it.
