Pats really disappointing me today. Defense has been pretty decent but their awesome offense has been so stagnant, that Shane fumble hurt too. They are really going to need to make some adjustments for sure. They really are lucky just to be down by 11 atm.

49's have a lot of offensive weapons and a good defense. Scary combo.

I'm a little weary of the amount of the holding the niners are getting away with on the offensive line.

I get your frustration Notorious. It's Super Bowl or bust for the Patriots. SF is an elite team and if you can't beat them at home, you're going to have trouble with Denver or Houston on the road. Denver far moreso. Broncos are in kill mode.

To be fair though, the Niners defense is the best in the NFL. The Pats shouldn't have a problem putting up 30+ against the Broncos or the Texans.

I expected to use struggle a little bit offensively against the 49ers. Obviously I knew we weren't gonna be dropping 35+ against the Niners D.

But what disappoints me is that the team is playing so soft offensively, they're playing almost as if they're scared of the Niners D. As far as the Pats defense goes, everyone knows they're not that strong and they're highly inconsistent. And one thing they're not built for is playing from behind.

We're coming out of halftime trailing by two touchdowns and it's the 49ers ball, so now because of the offense not playing to their ability they've put the team in a hole that we probably won't be able to overcome. Not with the way the defense is playing and not the way the offense is playing.

Houston perhaps; we did see NE dismantle and dominate them last week. Denver not so sure. Broncos are a fearsomely good team right now.

there we go mccourty.

**Notorious** · 12-16-2012, 09:32 PM

No lie, I'm scared as shit of Denver. Non-homer talk, I think they're coming out of the AFC. Peyton with a great defense is just a bad, bad, combination for his opponents.

And Belichick should've moved McCourty to safety a long time ago.
