Completely IDIOTIC challenge by Tomlin.

That is SO a catch by Gronk.

Mercury Morris popped the Champagne cork 3 weeks ago. That's how certain he was the Vikings would choke

Jags manage to seal loss by letting Raider punter run for a 30 yard 1st down on a bad snap.

Brown-like ineptness.

Fire Gus Bradley

My girlfriend and I were going to go this game (she lives right on the St Johns River across the river from the Hyatt.  Good thing we didn't go.  Yes, fire Gus Bradley. 

Watching NE: different formations, guys getting separation and open, having RB's with different styles of running, use the TE over the middle of the field.

I have to wonder what AR thinks when he watches offenses like that.

With NE. It's part formations. It's part isolation routes. What they do better than anyone is run 3-4 routes, sometimes identical routes with 2 guys, but the routes are always layered to different depth. Tom just reads coverage and drops and then picks the layer. Very impressive watching the route designs. Having Edelman and Gronk doesn't hurt either. 

NE goes because of BB, Brady, and Gronk.  And now they added Bennett so it's even easier for everybody else to get open.  With Gronk, even our WR's would eventually get open because of the attention he would draw from the D.  The Pats may be running a better passing system but a big reason it works(=better) is because of those two guys.

New England's offense is predicated on getting guys open, there's really nothing independent about it. Stacks, crosses, motion, you name it, guys are clearing zones for Gronk or Gronk is clearing zones for other guys. BB doesn't sit back and say "**** it, I've got a great QB, everybody run some iso routes and he'll throw it when you're open", he has McDaniel scheming ways to get guys open. He also doesn't spend as many high picks, or picks in general, on receivers.
