Next 6 games.

What the patriots have done is irrelevant to whether those teams are good or bad.

We are one of the worst teams in the league. Bottom 7. Maybe not the worst but we aren’t good.

 

[PatsFan2]

Then why point out incorrectly who is bad?

I know that you dont follow the NFL. Washington is not bad.

That Howell kid plays like Purdy he has guts and grit unlike you know.

I’ll have to find the season prediction thread, but I think I had them at 5-7 wins. They are lucky to be 1-3 as they’d be 0-4 had Rodgers played. This is just not a good team and Coaching staff.

And I’m not against having a good attitude but imo this is clearly not a good football team. It’s okay to admit it. It doesn’t make one less a fan. I’m not even mad about it. It’s what is.

That's what makes the Judon injury even worse is that he's one of the few guys on this team who might be worth something of value in a trade. Had he been healthy you might have gotten a 2nd or 3rd from a contender looking of a boost with the pass rush. Outside of him I don't know who we have (discounting rookies) that would bring anything of value. Uche hasn't done much this year and maybe would generate a mid round pick same with Bourne. This roster just doesn't have much value.

There are alot of guys under perfrom

On Douglas maybe BOB's is a yes man OC other Teams are playing their Rookies who show potential. And we have one who's clearly better than those over priced stiffs we are running out there down after down to do nothing. Parker 45 snaps one play in Garbage time but BB and BOB sees nothing wrong with that.

I heard Curran mentioning he and BB had a heated discussion over the off season.. during camp.. I didn't hear anything else about it.. I don't think BOB is a yes man to BB.. he has full autonomy on the offense. Agreed.. Douglas is naturally a play maker.. he needs to be involved.. Unless he's injured he should be out there at least splitting reps with Parker or juju.. why is Montgomery on this roster if he's not in on 3rd down.. so many questions and seems there no answers to this offense.

Posters won’t admit it and will find any excuse in the book to defend their current state because it’s a reflection on Bill.

You're exactly right. We can't keep pretending this team has the leaders and the studs to correct the ship. We don't.
We're a bad team. Have been for 3 years. And, for the first time in 20 years, we don't have the "equalizer" in BB that can make up for many weaknesses in personnel. We're officially in the doldrums until something changes from the top.

It's going be very interesting to see if this Defense can get off the field minus Judon and Gonzo. We know the Offense don't have that problem 3 @ out.

It’s hard to argue with 1-3 and would have been 0-4 if we took on Rodgers and coming off a 38-3 loss. Who knows, maybe we go 10-7 and turn it around but I think that’s less positivity but more being more used to our Patriots turning it around at some point each season and thinking we are still in dynasty mode. We are just a normal team now.

People are so used to the dynasty and are programmed to believe we will figure it out. I don’t think this team does but who knows maybe they shock the world and make the playoffs

IBBTT = In BB They Trust... I and they have seen the GOAT of HC's throughly outcoached by any Team who have a decent QB. We won games against Back up QBs whoopee.

What does that opinion have to do with whether the teams I listed are good or bad?

This team will face all of those teams and have the opportunity to show what they are. For the next 6 games the bar is not extremely high to be able to come out the other side as a contender.
We will see what they do.

Did he retire?

Let me say I would love to be wrong. We will see.

Are you guys actually reading any of the forum? Not many posters aren't saying the team looks really bad, nor are they saying it's not a reflection of Bill as a coach or as a GM.

There are 13 games left to play. Any judgment now is premature.
If there is one individual in the NFL that doesn’t need to be defended it’s Bill Belichick. He has won more than any body, no need to make excuses or defend that.

I didn’t mean it as a personal jab towards anyone. I welcome positivity. I’m just saying it’s hard to see it this season but who knows, I’d love to be wrong.

No, I agree. I would love to see it get better, but even if it does, serious changes need to be made after the season ends.

It's going to be zone every game from here on out.. Josh Allen will be 30/30. It's funny.. the tenure for BB is ending how it started.. it was a great ride.. I'm thankful for all the championships..

 

[PancakeBlockPaul]

Really hoping the high point this year isn't beating the Jete...

Buffalo (h) and Miami (a) sandwiched in between 4 bad teams; NO, LV, Wash, Indy.

With winnable games with LA, Giants, jets, Pitt, Denver still to go, there is a lot of season left.

4 or 5 wins in those 6 games sets them up in decent shape to finish strong.

To even fantasize about 4 or 5 wins out of the next 6 games would require rose colored glasses so thick they’d be impractical to wear.

2 or maybe 3 is extremely optimistic.
