Patriots 28th in Average Time of Possession

by

While most of the offensive statistics for this years Pats are solid (2nd in points, 5th in 3rd down conversions, 10th in red zone TDs) there is one stat that they aren’t so good in and it tells a lot. 

They are currently 28th in time of possession, and their average time of possession in the last three games is low enough to put them 31st with only the lowly Cowboys coming in worse. 

Put it this way, in the last three games the Giants (the number one ranked team) has had the ball, on average, thirteen and a half minutes more than the Patriots. That is staggering.

This is a reflection of two things, the defense not being able to get off the field on 3rd down (they’re ranked 32nd in the NFL) and the offense being inconsistent. It seems that there are two types of Patriots offensive possessions this year: 3 and outs, or quick and efficient drives that go right down the field and end in touchdowns.

The Patriots must find some consistency. This is an area where more sustained drives will help the defense, who will in turn be more rested and better adjusted to get off the field themselves.

Patriots History Tuesday: 2001 AFC Championship Game

Always fun to kick off a new week with a history lesson that involves this week’s opponent. As I’ve been saying the Patriots know HOW to beat the Steelers. Just look at every meaningful game of the last decade, usually the Pats won, and won big. The Steelers have always done what they do and if the Patriots can execute they actually can win despite that turd they put forth last weekend. 

This game was one of the closer ones of all the last decades. Who can forget Drew Bledsoe coming in and throwing a touchdown. That was one of the the first (of many) truly poetic events that have happened since this first Super Bowl run.

Channing vs. McClain: Idiot vs. Idiot

by

There’s been a lot on “SpitGate” today. Did Le’Ron McClain spit in Channing Crowder’s face? I can imagine Crowder probably said something to deserve it if he did. And I can also imagine McClain denying it even if he did it. So who really cares, they’re both idiots.

Patriots fans don’t really have alot of love for either Crowder or McClain. We all remember when Crowder said something personal to get Matt Light to pound his head like he did in the picture below.

            

And then there’s McClain, whose stupid penalty against the Patriots cost the Ravens the game earlier this year. 

The only question is who’s the bigger idiot.
