    2016 TD Scoring drives by NE
    Game 1. 8 plays, 7 plays, 12 plays, 5 plays
    Game 2. 13 plays, 5 plays, 3 plays, 6 plays

    2017
    Game 1 8 plays, 9 plays, 9 plays, 7 plays, 5 plays

    What I can't decipher from this is how many 3rd down conversions there were by the Pats (and average to go on 3rd on those drives). To me this is where I evaluate Gase and Burke. I assume that there were quite a few 3rd down conversions. What went wrong? Is it zone and no pressure? Is it a blitz pick up? This is where the game will come down to tonight.

    If we win out and Raiders lose a couple we still have a shot at the playoffs. Must win tonight.

    we can still make the playoffs at 8 and 8, so even if we lose tonight, there's a shot. :lol:

    Well.. I think Armando miscounted.

    In 2016 we lost to Seattle, NE twice, Pit and Tennessee among winning teams, winning only against Pit. In 2017 we lost to NO, Carolina, Balt and NE, beating Tennessee and Atlanta among winning teams.

    So it's really 3-9 against winning teams. But then where do you put Baltimore in 2016? Are they "winning" or "losing" because they ended 8-8. So it's really 3-9 against winning teams, 0-1 against 8-8 teams, and 12-4 against losing teams.

    I think Miami has literally a 1.1% chance of making the playoffs I think Baltimore needs to lose out but they play the colts cincy and Cleveland, and the chargers need to lose 2 of 3 against the chiefs jets and raiders. if we lose tonight its all but squashed I think.

    .500 or more is considered a winning season

    You have a source for that? Either way Armando is wrong.

    btw not sure what's "official" but it doesn't make much sense to me to consider .500 a "winning" season.

    ok a non losing record then, makes no sense I guess if its a non losing record wouldn't it be a winning record 8-8 and 7-9 have a huge difference so however "you" classify it is fine.

    Non-negative numbers are not all positive numbers (e.g. zero). So non-losing doesn't mean winning.

    I don't think he's classifying it as a losing record either. I don't think anyone if classifying .500 as a losing record. It's a .500 record.

    Winning Record > .500


    .500 record =.500


    Losing Record < .500

    (Edit*: I read your post wrong... I just skimmed it while at work...disregard)

    Not right now, but that's one way of characterizing 2013 and 2014 when we went 8-8.

    Just saw tankersley listed as inactive tonight. Does that put Bobby McCain on the outside and bet her in the middle? You think we'll bring Michael Thomas in some?

    What a great move by Drake to avoid the unblocked defender and pick up a big gain.

    Even if Drake doesn't slip there, that play is a big loss because Larsen whiffed bigtime it looked like.

    Landry lining up at RB, swing pass from Cutler.

    Nice start here by Gase to get the ball in the hands of his playmakers. He scripts his starts well, but seems to get lost after a drive or two. Got to fix that.

    Cant stall in the redzone and settle for FG's if you want to beat NE.

    It was a good start. Their secondary is excellent. It' going to be tougher scoring tds inside the 20 then from outside the 20

    Still a good drive and cutler made the right play throwing it away, he could have tried to force it a bit and lead his receiver down the left middle but it wouldve been a ridiculous throw and catch
