With 4 games left

[Newtcase]

Brandon LaFell eclipsed his career high in receptions, 49 in 2013 with Carolina.  As of this moment he has 53 for 712 with 7 TD.  This production has all come inside 9 games seeing as he didn't even catch a ball the first two games while developing chemistry with Brady.

 

Suppose this could be a bash coaching, bash Cam or praise Patriots/Brady thread but one thing is evident.  LaFell is beasting for New England and it took less than a season for it to happen.

[WhoAmI?]

QB and system

 

Yeah, LaFell has looked surprisingly great this year. Just goes to show you how vital a system can be.

[AceBoogie]

Lafell has been trending up every year and I told yall that I wouldn't be surprised if he put up big numbers this year.

Brady

[WOW!!]

Scheme and having Gronk, Edlemen, and a solid Oline...

He's not "beasting" for New England. It's a scheme, plug in Dobson all these games and he has 650 yards and 6 TDs (basically the same). LaFell has had crucial drops in crucial times, and is benefitting from the genius Belichick, a lot of time for Brady to throw and having Brady throwing to him. He's been solid but isn't "beasting."

Its the system. We have a crap system so everyone looks like crap.

Interesting claim as LaFell is only credited with two drops all season.

Interesting that you say plug Dobson in, when Dobson obviously isn't plugged in even though LaFell has apparently made crucial drops at crucial times.  

 

If 700 yards, 7 TD, and 53 receptions in 9 games isn't beasting, what is?  That rate projects to 1250 yards, 12 TD, and 96 receptions over 16 games....on a team with other options.

He's having a solid year, especially for 3 million a year or whatever it was they got him for.  Our bargain bin guys certainly haven't worked out for us.

Scheme and having Gronk, Edlemen, and a solid Oline...

....and a more accurate QB. Weird that you overlooked that one.

12 games buddy. If 1250 yards (which he won't have) is beasting then there are a dozen WRs beasting every year. And I suppose you thought Brandon Lloyd was beasting in 2012 too, right? You look at stats and think you're smart but you clearly have no clue what you're talking about. Watch the games and formulate an opinion. All the coverage is dictated towards Gronk, Vereen and Edelman and LaFell is reaping the benefits. Dobson isn't plugged in because he's been in Belichick's doghouse. He's more talented than LaFell, and anyone who's watched them both play can see that.

Brady and Belichick made Jabar Gaffney and Reche Caldwell look serviceable...

All time great QBs make everyone look good. Come on man.
