Three Things to Watch This Week - Super Bowl LIII

The New England Patriots play Geoff Jared Goff and the St. Louis Los Angeles Rams at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta on Sunday February 3rd at 6:30 PM.

The offensive line was tremendous in the AFC Championship Game.  Game balls all around for the large men up front.  What an absolute roller coaster that game was.

How many times has Tom Brady been to the Super Bowl now?


Nine times?  Nine times.

We’re so spoiled it’s not even funny.  Nine Super Bowl appearances in 18 years is insane.

I don't want to talk about legacies or historical context or any of that.  I just want them to win one more game.

Thanks Kyle


Here's the three things one thing I'll be watching for Sunday night:

1) The offensive line.  The Patriots' offensive line is the key to this game. If the offensive line keeps playing like they've played the last two games, I think they've got a strong chance. Keep Brady clean. Neutralize the Rams' defensive line. Open up giant holes for the running game.  Simple.


Did Rob Gronkowski have a catch last game?  Yes!

*****

This week we have Fake Rob Gronkowski filling for Fake Bill Belichick.

You ever see Pee Wee's Big Adventure?  Small dude in a suit loses his bike then goes on a roadtrip to get it back.

I've never related to a movie so hard in my life.

When I was a kid in Williamsville, I just want to go out there and ride my bike (and pee off the bridge into Ellicott Creek).  I was all I could think about.  I never wanted a football career.  I just kinda backed into that.

When Taam throws up that football, I pretend it's my bike and I go all out for it.

I totally screamed the first time I saw the Large Marge scene.  And that biker bar.  I'd hang out there.

Also that scene with the huge dinosaurs is great.  Other than my bike, I would totally want to ride one of those guys.

"Good for you and your father."

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?
