This is looking to be a very good football game. Maybe a pitcher’s dual of sorts

Jacksonville’s OC works a good mix

Jags look good.

Receivers need to be careful about letting the ball go and it falling out of their hands that soon after an apparent TD catch!  Defender should have put more pressure on him to hold onto the ball to demonstrate a catch.

This game so far very comparable to the Atl/Philly game last week in that regard.

Right down the field. Pats have no answers for Bortles and the run game.

So far Jacksonville is manhandling the Patriots on both sides of the ball.

Jags claim a good advantage with a 2 possession lead and have the ball.

I didn’t expect this as is. I have watched Jacksonville now 9x this season. Their defense is spectacular and Bortles, Fournette, OC design get enough first downs with what they do.

Their O-line seems to continue to improve and that is scary

Only the Pats get that delay of game call

Would NE have made that mistake of not getting to the 2 minute warning before they punted?

Or letting the play clock run out after a time out?  Or getting an illegal motion penaly on a hurry up play?

I’ll disagree. At first I thought that but rewinded it and clock was at 0 long enough for ref to look up and see ball not snapped.

Jags have been more aggressively contesting of catches. Biting them some now.

JVille should’ve called timeout once NE down to 2

NE did their thing there. JVille let their guard down a touch

Oh I didn’t mean that they got it off in time. Just that a lot of times the clock is at 0 and the refs don’t call it dead if the ball is snapped shortly after.

I know, they claim the official must see clock at 0 and then look up and if center still touching ball to throw the flag.

NE was lucky that Jacksonville was negligent

Safe to say his hand is fine. Cooks has to catch that. Big break for Jags

Not sure I’ve disagreed with more than 1 or 2  Jags play calls

I picked the Pats from the beginning, but like I thought I might, I'm now rooting for the Jags because of the way they are playing.

Pats ball IMO

He lost it but then pinned it on way down as his knee hit, then lost it completely.

I think Pats ball.

Already sick of seeing the media whine about Super Bowl ratings if Jacksonville wins. God forbid the same fucking team doesn’t go there every year.
