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 15

"Is there any of the good Scotch left?" the Rookie asked. "I wouldn't call it good  Scotch. But no. We finished that weeks ago," the Veteran responded. Outmanned and outgunned, they rode west across New York to the certain slaughter waiting for them at Orchard Park. The streets wide and flat, indifferent to their struggle. "Is the water safe to drink?" "Don't know. Try it and find out." General Mayo lacked the sense of direction his predecessor displayed. If there was dissension in the ranks, it didn't show. But there was also no lust for the battlefield. Going beyond what was required of one's duty. They just didn't have the spirit for it. His predecessor had been deposed because the vibes were off. And now he risked the same fate. "Is there anything to eat?" "There's an empty can of beans. You may lick what's left off the bottom of it if you like." The talent level of recruits was lacking, not up ...

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 1

The first place New England Patriots play the Oakland   Los Angeles   Oakland  Las Vegas Raiders at Gillette on Sunday September 7th at 1:00 PM. Patriot first round pick tackle Will Campbell. Douglas Power Rankings: 1) Adams 2) DeMario 3) Michael  4) The Lincoln–Douglas debates 5) Illeana  After back to back 4 - 13 seasons, you are allowed to feel a little skeptical about this team. What do we, as Patriots fans, have to look forward to in 2025? Returning:  Executive vice president of player personnel Eliot Wolf is somehow still here. Last year, the two wide receivers he drafted in 2024 combined for 13 catches. And one of them is no longer with the team. I'm against it. Coach Mike Vrabel. His career record as a coach is 56–48. This was seen as a significant upgrade over what we had in place. Offensive Coordinator Josh McDaniels. He's back! Again! Not returning: Coach Jerod Mayo. It was both a bad situation AND he didn't do a great job with it. That's ba...
