Three Things to Watch This Week - AFC Divisional Playoff Game

The New England Patriots play Philip Rivers and the San Diego Los Angeles Chargers at Gillette Stadium in the AFC Divisional Playoff round on Sunday January 13th at 1:05 PM.


Who's got two index fingers and isn't going anywhere?  That guy!

Getting a first round bye nine years in a row is amazing.  Nine years in a row!  I'll be shocked if that ever happens again.

I expect a close, competitive game on Sunday. I think the deciding factor will be how much of a game the Patriot's running backs have collectively (both running the ball and catching the ball out of the backfield).


Wall Power Rankings:

1) -E

2) Mending

3) -ace Shawn

4) Wonder

5) Another Brick in the

6) John


Here are the running backs I'll be keeping a close eye on on Sunday:

1) James White - 87 receptions for James White this season.  Not bad!

2) Rex Burkhead - Burkhead has proven to be force in the running game and the passing game*.    (*when he's healthy)

3) Sony Michel - Michel finished his rookie season with 931 yards and a 4.5 yards per carry average.  Not amazing.  But also not terrible.

Bonus fourth item!

4) Cordarrelle Patterson - We'll give honorary running back status to Cordarrelle Patterson, who rushed for 228 yards this year.


Did Rob Gronkowski have a catch last game?  Yes!


My prediction: Pats 24, Chargers 23


*****
This week we have Fake Josh McDaniels filling for Fake Bill Belichick.

What up, Bros and Lady Bros?

The Visor talked to the Green Bay Packers last week. 

"I was thankful for the opportunity to meet with Green Bay; it always gives you greater insight into another organization of how they do things. It's been very educational for me every time I've gone through it and I've appreciated every single one of them."

(dismissive wanking motion)

Translation: Aaron Rodgers looked like poo this year.  He might be done.  I'm not going near that mess.

Also, Mike McCarthy was kinda a buttnugget.  I don't want to follow that guy.

Also also, their GM is some dude named "Brian Gutekunst".  Do you know how much fun I could have had just goofing on that name every day?  I'm almost took the job just to make fun of that guy.  Endless possibilities.  It boggles the mind. 

I'm not actually even interested in any of these jobs.  I just like going on interviews and getting free lunches and getting GMs to do whatever weird stuff I can think of...

One time I told a team I needed them get in a sensory deprivation tank with me and conduct the entire interview from there.  Just for the "good energy". 

I kill me sometimes.

Until next time... take it easy, Brahs.

JAY MICK DEE OUT.

Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 2

The New England Patriots play Geno Smith and the Seattle Seahawks at Gillette Stadium on Sunday September 15th at 1:00 PM. Rhamondre was running through dudes. Considering how low my expectations were for week 1 and the season in general, I'm going to classify that first game as "delightful". Can you win with a conservative, run first offense and an aggressive defense in 2024? Maybe! HBO David Show Runners Power Rankings: 1) Chase 2) Simon 3) Milch 4) Larry 5) Benioff Here are three things that were pretty good in week 1: 1) Rhamondre Stevenson - Game ball for Stevenson. I know we're in an era where the running game has been deprecated, but he's an absolute beast. 2) Jacoby Brissett - He's never going to blow anyone away, but just being "steady" and "adequate" felt like a huge improvement over what we saw last season. 3) The offensive line took a huge leap from what we saw in the pre-season. Thanks, David Andrews! Dad Rock Jam of the Week ...

Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 6

The 1 - 4 New England Patriots play C.J. Stroud and the Houston Texans at Gillette Stadium on Sunday October 13th at 1:00 PM. They really should stop buttering the ball between plays. That Patriots - Dolphins game last week was one of the worst things I've ever seen. Let's never speak of it again. The Patriots have announced third overall pick Drake Maye as the starting quarterback this week. I feel like it's too soon. But it's not my job on the line. I'll be nice and cozy on the couch with snacks and beverages and a dog that will pick the absolute worst time to decide that he has to go out. Drake Power Rankings: 1) 's Cakes 2) (the duck)  3) (the singer from Canada) 4) Gilded 5) Maye Here are three things that could have been better in week 5: 1) Jacoby Brissett. Thank you for your contributions. I appreciate your effort. I'm not sure how you're still standing. 2) The play calling had me scratching my head on multiple occasions. 3) The whole WR position...

Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 4

The 1 - 2 New England Patriots play Brock Purdy and the San Francisco 49ers at Levi's Stadium on Sunday September 29th at 4:05 PM. I would very much like to go back to watching fancy football. We're downgrading this team from "surprisingly frisky" to "potentially another lost season" after last week. There's just too far to go for this offense. Watch this space for additional updates Wilson Power Rankings: 1) How to with John 2) Luke 3) Thomas F. 4) Ann and Nancy 5) Marco 6) Eugene 7) Pickett 8) The Volleyball 9) Patrick 10) Owen 11) Rita Here are three things that I did not care for in week 3: 1) Poor Jacoby Brissett is getting absolutely beat up out there. I feel for the guy.  We have not put him in a good situation. 2) Punts. So many punts. 3) Aaron Rodgers. Maybe not dead yet?
