Possible trap game looking ahead to Indy? If it were any team besides the Pats, I'd be more worried.
That would be unusual if that wasn't what they do in literally every game.Coach wrote:I think Hardy's comments and Jerry Jones comments suggesting that Brady/pats back down on challenging air pressure investigation mean the pats will be in run-up-score, hurry up offense mode today.

I was actually wondering about this, too.Simple Torture wrote:Here's your one reminder: the record for points by one team since the merger is 62 (73 prior).
The defense has been sneaky-dependable so far, which is a success, I think, since most people were expecting them to regress with the losses in the secondary. They're 16th in DVOA, and have only given up a double-digit quarter twice this year (2/16). But, yeah, in order to put up points like that, they'd need to 3-and-out Indy over and over again or give up a few quick scores. It's fun to imagine, but I doubt it'll happen.Coach wrote:I was actually wondering about this, too.Simple Torture wrote:Here's your one reminder: the record for points by one team since the merger is 62 (73 prior).I'm enjoying the 2015 edition of the F-U Tour. I'd like to see the offense break that record of 62 pts scored, but that likely means the D would give up a good chunk of points.

Only 2 defensive TDs last year, only 3 the year before; I don't see it happening. Maybe a special teams TD, but it's be more realistic to just hope for good field position.elliseamos wrote:But you're forgetting that the D can score points too.Simple Torture wrote:The defense has been sneaky-dependable so far, which is a success, I think, since most people were expecting them to regress with the losses in the secondary.
