All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
I didn't notice Duke sucking any more than anybody else on the field, but sometimes that can be hard to discern during the game unless it's obvious. Duke had a terrible game last season here against the Pats also, and he's definitely been somewhat of a disappointment so far (at least for me), but there was a helluva lot more wrong yesterday than one back up.

He should probably worry about calling out his dream team of a defensive line for their disappearing act.
Not too sure what you think they should have done against a quick release passing game though ? Only way they could have made a diff is if the Pats o-line was cardboard cutouts and even then it would have taken longer to sprint the few yards before the play was past them.

I just can't blame the line for this one.
Not all of his throws were made in 2 seconds or less. But all you have to do is watch Luck against the Bills, or Luck against the Jets last night to understand that a pass rush doesn't have to produce sacks to produce results. Every one of Luck's turnovers last night was due to pressure.
Interfering in passing lanes, getting close enough so he can't step up into a throw, just making him uncomfortable ...all change results. Its why these guys are getting paid what they do...its the importance of the position.
Mario..I didn't expect anything out of him Sunday. He's been owned by the Pats (both sides of the line) since he's been here. Hughes looked like he was being held a number of times.
but KW and Dareus...no real excuses. They didn't show up.
Watching #99 on Sunday I thought I was looking at fat Pat Williams again. Effort one play. Not so much the next. He got his money why should he care? Eli pulling same act in NY.
He could have called out every player who lined up on D Sunday, none of them showed up.
But ya know, it's fair game to call out a second stringer in the secondary instead of your 250 million dollar line or your own lack of in game adjustments to stop the Pats when you know they're gonna keep throwing.

Yeah. I'm not sure what I'm debating. Bad is bad is bad.

That's the Jimmy Johnson School of Unequal treatment...proven vets, especially the studs, get the pass while guys struggling to keep their spot on the team are held to a different standard. Plus, to give a little credit, Ryan was quick to point out he got out-coached.

LOL. You're young. Don Shula did it. Chuck Knoll did it. Knox did it. Lot of others.
