Connelly’s Top Ten - Patriots Can’t Stand the Heat
1. Misc
* Wicked hot down their for well hydrated Patriot fans
* Just the sight of Tom Coughlin is kryptonite
* Ryan Allen off to a nice start - seem to be seeing him too much
* Three 15 yard penalties on extra points - must have been some retaliation going on
* Jags were without Fournette
* Pic play on the TD to end the first half
2. Brady
* Brady is 6-6 in Florida
* Not great on the deep ball
* Football reference.com has two nicknames for Brady I have never heard - Pharaoh / Sir
* Looked like a guy without many weapons
3.Offense
* Patterson has a play set up for him and back pedals with the ball coming and falls down - ugh
* Hogan is a complementary receiver
* Sonny Michel did run over a defender which was nice
* Was Gronk fighting enough to get open - hope we don’t see the difference between this year and last year when he had incentives meaning millions
* Blueprint - take away Gronk and make James White beat you
4. Defense
* Amazing they have had this run of 18 years and haven’t seen to touch a QB
* Another bad QB carving them up - painful to watch
* Hightower looks like an average linebacker right now
* Can someone figure out the crossing routes
5. Coaching
* Strange not going for 2 when down 11 in 4th
* Bill was furious at King for not jumping on the punt when the Jag jumped offside
* I hate when McDaniel goes crazy with running the ball inside the 20 - did it three straight times
* Gostkowski is 3 for 9 on onside kicks - from the 50 yard line (twice after penalties) why wouldn’t you try that everytime
6. Kraft Sighting / Bill’s Garb
* 14 seconds left in first half
* Bill blue wind breaker short sleeve
7. Red Sox
* On pace for 111 wins
* Betts hurt ugh - hurt Sale / hurt Betts / done in first series
* Red Sox win again with the six hitters in the lineup hitting under .250 - Lin, Moreland, Kinsler, Bradley, Vazquez, Devers
8. Around the NFL
* Matt Patricia on a pace to go 0-16 / another defensive coordinator not to do well - Romeo Crennel (I know its early)
* Ryan Fitzpatrick has thrown for 819 yards in two games and 8 TD
* Aaron Rodgers doing insurance ads is appropriate seeing he is always hurt
* Steelers haven’t won yet and Bell has caused dissension
9. Old School
* In two years Sale has thrown 361 innings / Tiant threw 311 in 1974
10. Randomocity
* Next time you walk by the smell of a gas leak might walk faster
