      Last one was a terrible decision given how much green he had in from of him. I know we were out of time outs but I think he could’ve picked up a first down and scooted out of bounds.

      If anything, he should’ve thrown to the back corner of the endzone. Just a bad mistake on Kenny’s part.
      This. The good news is, it's possible for him to clean this up.

        Belichik had no problem benching his first round QB in tonight's game after he threw a pick. Zappe comes in and immediately passes for a TD. (somewhere I think I saw Zappe had the highest accuracy under pressure of any QB in 2022 draft class and it's showing up in the NFL).

          That was an awful throw to a wide open receiver, who made a circus catch to save his QB. If that's "accuracy", I don't want to see erratic.

            INT 2 was DEFINTELY because of velocity. Not totally should have thrown it sooner & on other side away from defender. But Terry & Ben would have thrown it hard & stuffed it in there no problem.

              Cheatriots* are currently losing 33-14 in the 4th quarter.

              obviously, Belicheat didn't have his team ready to play.

                  and now the Pats have a QB controversy after getting blown out at home.

                    You're right. It's so true. How about some 5 yard runs, or a big play for the offense. Aside for Pickens we aren't getting any. Harris needs to be benched, give Warren a try or at least spilt the carries. He can run it hard and he seems to be better. A real force as a pass blocker too. And he converted on 3rd and 1 in case you didn't notice.

                    Tomlin hasn't won a playoff game in seven years and counting. The earliest will be eight years. I guess that in Art Rooney's II, opinion is worth a 3 year extension.

                    Our 2024 draft looks to be grade A. Our 2023 draft is an A. The roster is talented, but Mike Tomlin is still the head coach.

                    *** Mike Tomlin is the best coach since the AFL- NFL merger that has not won a playoff game in 8 seasons or more. It's either him or Lewis. ***

                      He had lots...but not because of lack of arm strength.

                        Just for fun I looked up Terry's 3rd start.

                        We lost to Cleveland 15-7.

                        Terry was 13 for 29 for 207 yards and 3 INTs.

                        He also ran 4 times for 44 yards and a TD.


                        For the 1970 season Terry had 6 TDs and 24 INTs.

                        Kenny is on pace for 7 TDs and 27 INTs.


                        So at this rate of keeping pace with Terry, he shoud have his 4 Lombardis in no time
