So we're just going to ignore the game we all just watched where their defense gave up 613 yards and didn't force a single punt?

[JARROD]

Absolutely,..

but I agree with the one post that Carolina should have done it last year. 

It wont be as easy with the choices.

Another fkup for the Patriots was Malcolm Butler.

Held out, won them SB against Seattlebut held out,..,

might have made the difference.

paid 3.9 million this year,.. free agent 

he’d be a great addition to the Panthers? 

I say yes.

Yes, they won. They won with a backup quarterback scoring 41 points with receivers wide open at every level.

You're right. Their offense executed the entire fuging game, it was amazing to watch. I've never in my life seen so many wide open players, on both sides of the ball.

Steelers have to be kicking themselves. all that talent and not make it to AFC Champ game.

Eagles have a lot of leverage with Foles and the team playing so good without Wentz, they can simply say, meh, we made you look good.

There was no defense being played in this game and if Cooks had not have gotten hurt Brady would have been hoisting another AN. If it was not for money I would not have even watch the whole game. I knew new England would not Win.

More important than getting WRs is getting an OC that knows how to call plays that put your WRs in positions to get open. Getting rid of Shula was way more important than any WR we sign.

In 2016 Torry Smith had 20 receptions on 49 targets for 267 yards and 3 TD for the 9ers.  

In 2016 Alshon Jeffery had 52 receptions on 95 targets for 821 yards and 2 TD's for the Bears.   

These stats aren't awesome.   I think we can match it.

 

This. 

When will people realize it's about the scheme and playcalling?

Its how Ginn can go to Carolina and put up good numbers then suck at most other places. 

Its how backup Nick Foles can win a superbowl against Bill and Brady. 

Most NFL players have the ability to be productive. Just finding that right match and system.

Well things are usually on a spectrum and not just black and white like you seem to believe. Scheme is important but so is the skill of your players . If your WRs aren't skilled enough to consistently catch the football or separate from defenders that's going to drag you down no matter what offense theyre in. 

Eagles also have a superior skilled  oline that barely allowed the Patriots defenders to even breathe on Foles. Can you imagine if we had the eagles oline vs Denver?
