NFL. The official what have we learned week 7

[klientel]

Jameis is my FSU goat but he largely held this team back.

My theory is teams play hard and overachieve for Brady because they witness the work he puts in. You look at that Patriots team yesterday and it’s like no one on both sides of the ball are trying or even care. The Pats D always played hard to keep themselves in the game because they believed in Tom. Look at how Tampa Bay morphed into contenders instantly. Belichick needed to be humbled too.

Yeah the Bucs play extra hard because they don’t want to be the reason they let Brady down. And they have that extra motivation of knowing that they always have a shot at the end if they keep it close.

On the flip side the Pats look like a bottom feeder team full of guys who are just there to collect checks. They don’t play hard for Cam, Beli, McDaniels...nobody.

Brady makes the playoffs this year and the Patriots win 5 or 6 games.... he can retire as the unquestioned GOAT and nobody will bring up Beli again.

Why is Mahomes looking average this year?

Playcalling has been more balance this season and the rush offense is top 10 vs bottom 10 last season. His QBR is actually higher this season compared to any other one.

 

[CodeBlaMeVi]

Bucs were a few missed field goals from being 9-7 last year with Jameis turning the ball over more than 30 times. They literally just needed somebody who wouldn’t be that bad.

Exactly. Why play hard as a defense to get the ball just so your offense can give it right back. You’re talking just INTs. Don’t forget the fumbles.

 

[Lootpack]

They have like a top 3 defense in the league breh.

You know it gotta pass the eye test for some folks.

Tom "The System" Brady

Bucs were one of the best defenses in the league last year. Playing hard doesn’t matter when your QB turns it over 30+ times, it’s untenable

Why is Mahomes looking average this year?

Teams are playing 7-8 guys in coverage and forcing us to run the ball more and take underneath routes. The offense misses Sammy a lot too.

 

[Supa]

Cowboys offense has scored 13 points in 2 games without Dak yet he was the problem

Hate to see Seattle lose but I want AZ to get a wildcard so it worked out. Pete has to trade for pass rushers ASAP. Clowney hasn't done anything this year so letting him go was the right move but they need to improve the defense. I'd also try to get Engram if the Giants are willing to deal.

Why is Mahomes looking average this year?

3rd in TD'S
4th in QB rating
5th in yards

What's your definition of average?

 

[Stone]

Bell is gonna be so key for KC down the stretch, he was basically the missing piece on offense. They’re showing that they can run the ball on teams is gonna force them to pick their poison

 

[Llcoolbay]

Russ better pick it up.

Rodgers and Brady are on his ass right now for that MVP

 

[GatorStaceyAdams]

Literally look at the rest of their schedule .. weak af

They just beat the Titans and Browns, who have a combined record of 10-3.

 

[Formerly known as...]

Hate to say it but Cam got next week to prove something or he may just get benched. May not be all on him but a change may spark something for the Patriots.

Doubt it, his backup isn’t much better

there’s a serious lack of speed on that offense

 

[Hypris]

Russ better pick it up.

Rodgers and Brady are on his ass right now for that MVP

NFC West is the toughest division in the league and they played (and lost) against their first division matchup last night. It's not going to be easy for Russ.

 

[Formerly known as...]

We also learned that Brady is still the damn GOAT.
