Offensive line should fall down and let Stroud get ran over until he can no longer stand, it’s the only chance they have of winning.

Man, what a goddamn string of luck NE gets this edit: postseason. Warm weather injured 7 seed, warm weather 5 seed in snow, then the 1 seed will be starting a backup QB - and only won by 3 points this week after getting, what, 3 net fumbles?

And hell, who even knows if Darnold will be healthy in the Super Bowl. Just borderline unreal good luck.

Patriots defense isn't even defending more than 15 yards downfield anymore. They KNOW Stroud is completely unable to get the ball down the field and are jumping every single short route.

I mean, given the weather, somewhat less of a surprise there is a bunch of turnovers. Still, Stidham might have a shot.

Obviously the strong suit of both these teams are their defenses - but their weakness is also the Oline for both. The Texans' issues are obvious (frankly, its a testament to their defense they got this far with that Oline), but Oine was also the whole reason I didn't see the Patriots as a playoff team going into the season. Question being whether the Patriots Oline is good enough - or has just been good enough for their joke of a schedule.

I thought it was a bullshit call on the Broncos final INT - it was weird to me that nobody on the broadcast was questioning it. Like he clearly seemed to have possession before he hit the ground, then hits the ground (down), and only then did the CB very quickly gain some kind of possession of the ball and rip it away. Seeing so many people question how that was not a catch - call that literally decided the game.


I dunno man. I was told from the first day I started playing high school football that if it's a tie in the air (you both have your hands on it), the winner is the one who wrestles it away from the other one on the ground. Get your hands on it and then take it. Coaches told us this because the team had lost a championship to this a few years before.

I'm unconvinced that the Patriots have a good defense. Given Stroud is a below average COLLEGE QB and the Texans have zero run game.
