guess that’s why the Goat has him as his starting back. Because he single handedly loses games. Bellichek loves fumblers.


I guess that's why Belichick drafted Stevenson.

Wanna bet they pick up another one in the draft/off-season so they'll be in a position to tell Harris to take a low-dollar contract when his rookie deal ends, or go kick rocks?

Fumblers last as long as there's not another option.

Stevenson is getting worked into the rotation. White is out for the season. Again, third best.

Judon keeps screwing up contain when he is suppose to keep Allen from going to his right. They need to keep Van Noy on that side at all times.

Damien has 3 career fumbles. 2 fumbles this season. Dalvin Cook, Jonathan Taylor, Austin Ekeler all have more. With very few exceptions Belichick doesn't really employ a lead back. There are always 2-3 guys in a rotation. This is a stupid take.

Harris was one of PFF’s highest graded RBs last year and fumbled once. He drafted Stevenson because he likes using a RB by committee.

The guy has TWO fumbles all year. That’s just one more than Stevenson. You’re talking as if the guy has 6.

You don’t just draft a RB because you are unhappy with your lead back. You draft for depth and attrition because of free agency too. Plus you always need a deep stable at that position, we should know.

Just ignore the dumbass troll. Why we're having to deal with dipshits like this on our page is beyond me.




Mac Jones is at some point gonna have to pass a lot to win a game. I hope they haven't put such a big leash on him that when the time comes he isn't able to handle it well.

Not sure where this is coming from. They haven’t been handcuffing him this season - just look at the numbers. He’s been running the same Pats offense Brady ran and has been very effective in the 2 minute drill.

Last night was a unique situation due to the weather. As someone else said, the only reason the Bills tried throwing was that they had zero success on the ground. The 30-50 mph winds made anything in the air just reliant on pure luck. Buffalo missed a 30 yard FG that was straight down the middle halfway there then the wind happened.

Josh Allen has the strongest arm in the NFL and he barely was at 50% passing. The wind was freakish.

Before last night, Mac's attempts per game were around middle of the pack for starting QBs... obviously last night will now skew that statistic...not that it really means anything other than they have a balanced offense, when needed.

I think it's brilliant they're saving Mac's arm for the playoff run lol.

New England Media is desperate to turn on Mac. Still want Trey Lance or Teddy Bridgewater.


What ?

I thought they were in love with Mac- and why wouldn't they be ? He's outperformed every QB taken in the draft by far, and has them on pace for the playoffs.

Bridgewater ? I watched him play this weekend, and I'd take Bryce Young over Bridgewater today... next Sunday.

Some of the Boston media is awful and is almost more happy when the team sucks

They are for the most part. I have a lot of friends up there. Everybody is ecstatic with Mac.

Actually, 1 of them works for NESN in Boston. He can't stand conservative thought, and tries to rile me up every time we talk. I wouldn't be surprised if he wants Mac to fail out of pure leftwing spite for me.

Now that I think about it, I wouldn't call him a friend anymore. More of just part of the friend group I have up there. Kinda just deal with him.

Steelers are a mess. Can’t stop Vikings and can’t do anything on offense,even missed a field goal.

I'm not sure what's going on with their defense. They looked good last week and now the Vikings are having their way with em.
