Cooks' Play Tonight for the Pats

saintsfan1976 · 09-08-2017, 01:21 PM

We had two tough matchups to start the season regardless of what happened the week before. DO YOUR JOB

I didn't watch the whole game. But the Patriots were able to move the ball well and their defense looked stout. They let the game get away from them. They looked dominant at times and should have another Super bowl run.jmho

We can beat them at home if our defense doesn't make too many mistakes like young teams tend to do.

To me, it looked like when Hightower went out and they cut to commercial, Pats & KC went into the locker room and switched unis...

How did NE's defense look stout exactly? Brees at home should destroy that secondary.

All that 16-0 crap is gone and the anointing is over! wooooohooooooo

That is quite a fantasy. I cannot see that happening. I have voiced my concerns about five days rest and comparing last year's games after previous offensive outings.

It's not about matchups when it comes to this team. It's about timing.

Are the Patriots that bad or is KC that good. Man did they look bad.

That Tyrek Hill is a beast, too fast to catch, too small to see

On any given Sunday its who takes it too the field ... The Pat's looked slow Thursday night, except Cooks and that CB who ran down Hill on the sideline run 4th qtr. But especially late 3rd early 4th quarter the whole team looked to be gassed when compared to the speed of play for both KC's offense and defense.
I think the youth movement in our defense with its speed of play will surprise people this year. Mistakes will be made adjustments necessay but it will they will be able to disrupt even the most disciplined offenses. Brady spent the 4th quarter on his back.

The league will take notice after the Vikings game. 27-3 SAINTS!
