While that's true, the Patriots also played perhaps the easiest slate of offenses of any team this season. Everyone has trouble stopping the Falcons after the catch. I'm most curious about whether the Pats front 7 will be able to stop Freeman/Coleman themselves, or whether those two deep safeties will need to start cheating up towards the line. If they have to, that opens things up for Atlanta. They ground out drives in the early going against GB and broke it open as soon as GB started adjusting to stop the death by a thousand cuts. Overall I give the Pats the advantage because of their experience and superior performance on each side in the red zone, but Atlanta is way too good for the Pats to contain them all game. \/\/\/ yeah and the last thing Quinn will do is blitz, he knows Brady will eat that alive. If he can get pressure with 4, that'll help. Going to be a tall order though. shirts and skins fucked around with this message at 15:37 on Feb 2, 2017 |

Blacktooth posted:Quinn will do mostly the same except go for the sack. Brady is far from mobile, and does not take hits well. Have you watched Brady in the pocket at all this season? He is more than capable of moving around to avoid a sack. He's not going to take off for any 10yd runs unless something really gets hosed up after the snap, but he definitely doesn't just stand there and take it like he did in 2013

Brady played plenty of top defenses this season, and none of them were able to sack Brady to death like everybody fantasizes about doing. The Patriots are more likely to get to Ryan than the Falcons are to get to Brady - both teams have league average pass rushes, but Ryan's sack rate (6.5%) is much higher than Brady's (3.4%). Neither team's pass rush is likely to be decisive though, they just aren't good enough. And neither team likes to blitz anyway, so outside the odd change-up I don't expect to see much of that from either team.

Why is Josh Brown going on GMA? What is he hoping to accomplish?

Brown was already forgotten by everybody, so going on TV to rehabilitate his image really just reminds everyone of what hurt his image in the first place, making it completely counter-productive. Then again, it's not like a white trash wife beater punter is the kind of person you expect to have good judgment I guess.

And yes, Brady has good pocket awareness. He has to have it. But, every team that has success against the Pats gets to Brady, and you can't not pass rush. Unlike the Pats, the Falcon's will not have to contain as well as collapse the pocket. As far as outcome, we won't know till Sunday.

I still don't think it'll be huge sack numbers that will due Brady in, it will be consistent hurries and pressures. Atlanta was the 11th best pass rushing team in the league based on this article and distance to QB measurable http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000781911/article/denver-broncos-lead-list-of-top10-pass-rushing-teams It is my understanding that Green Bay has a much better OLine than New England and they were consistently able to generate pressure on Rodgers. Seattle's line is laughable, which would explain why Atlanta was harassing Wilson every drop back. I don't think anyone is expecting there to be a 6 sack game by any team, but consistent pressure is going to go a long way. On the Atlanta side, I'd be much more concerned if Jones and Collins were still on the roster.

In high school McAfee found out about a kicking competition in Miami. He borrowed 100 bucks from a friend and headed to an illegal poker club and ended up winning 1400 to fund the trip and entered the competition. He made 9 consecutive field goals starting at the 25, adding 5 yards each time. A West Virginia recruiter offered him a scholarship. On draft day, thinking nobody ever drafts a kicker, he got completely poo poo faced at a draft party, when his phone rang he drunkenly answered it and had a drunk guy conversation with Bill Polian about punting. The assistant gets on the line and was beginning to go through available jersey numbers, starting with 1, and he immediately goes "I'll take that one" to quicken the process so he could get off the phone and continue drinking. He did this: Then posted: https://twitter.com/PatMcAfeeShow/status/392314989395988480 He also kicked a 67 yard punt..... then posted: https://twitter.com/PatMcAfeeShow/status/765171305893203968 One night while out clubbing, he got a little warm and decided to drunkenly swim in a canal. He was arrested. When someone on twitter challenged him to a swimming competition: https://twitter.com/PatMcAfeeShow/status/616805082466627584 He once onside kicked to himself. He had the freedom to call a fake punt anytime he felt like it. Pat McAfee is better then your punter.

Pretty much breaks down every matchup and covers a ton of possibilities about how they'll play each other: I liked this until the end, where he predicted the Patriots win 34-17. I mean, I'd like that to happen, but the Falcons being outscored 2:1 seems like a bit of a stretch to me. I would expect them to out-score the Steelers, who were a garbage road team this year, and who lost their #1 back immediately, and spent the whole game just being as dumb as possible in general.

Jon Ryan owns because his level of athleticism (aside from the obvious kicking ability) shows us average Joes exactly what it would look like if we were put into an NFL game. https://youtu.be/V8-DIl3be9A Touchdown!
