Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 5

The New England Patriots play Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions at Gillette Stadium on Sunday October 9th at 1:00 PM

Ad domum.


Cool Dad's Club Meeting tonight 9:00 - 9:05 PM

  - Fall clean up projects (good)

  - Winterizing your house (good)

  - Red Sox not in the playoffs (not good)


Bailey Power Rankings:

1) 's Irish Cream

2) George

3) Beetle

4) Zappe


Here are three things that didn't completely suck in the loss to the Packers:

1) Bailey Zappe - Nobody is saying he's the second coming of Brady or anything, but I thought he played well under the circumstances. I don't think they would have been in it right up until the last minute with Hoyer under center.

2) Matt Patricia - The play calling was less horrible last week.

3) Jack Jones - Do we love to see a rookie corner with a pick six? We do!


Did the Patriots score 20 points last week?

Yes!


90s Jam of the Week

Lush - Superblast!


My prediction: Patriots 31, Lions 30

This week we have Fake Matt Patricia. And why not?

Hello Carbon Based Lifeforms.  I hope this correspondence finds you well. 

I'm back! Did you miss me?

And I'm coaching... the offense now... for some reason? At least until McDaniels flames out in Vegas and is back here in 2024.

I'm approaching my new role this season as the Dungeon Master for an exciting new DnD campaign. The future is whatever we make it... together! 

Right now, we're each figuring out who our characters are. Strengths and weaknesses. What skills we have that mesh together. Trying to find that synergy.

Did everybody read the thiry eight page character sheet I gave them? Excellent! Let's roll those dice.

Fake Matt's beer of the week is Harpoon Flannel Friday.  (Not a paid endorsement!)

Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 2

The New England Patriots play Tua Tagovailoa and the Miami Dolphins at Gillette Stadium on Sunday September 17th at 8:20 PM. Jabrill Peppers gave them a chance. Rough loss in week 1. Despite a horrific first quarter, they were in that game late. And they couldn't close it out. No moral victories. Bloom Power Rankings: 1) In 2) County 3) Bialystock and 4) Rachel 5) Orlando ... 11,997) Chaim Here are three things I wasn't particularly excited about last week: 1) The offense coming up small when the game was on the line. The defense gave them a chance. I'm seeing a pattern here. 2) The continued streak of being unable to win when the other team scores 25 points. 3) Giving away the ball. "We don't want it. You take it!" Did the Patriots score 20 points last week? Just barely. 2010s Jam of the Week The Joy Formidable - Whirring My prediction: Dolphins 34, Patriots 14 ***** This week we have Bill O'Brien, Reluctant Dungeon Master. Why is there so much text here?

Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 1

The New England Patriots play Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles at Gillette Stadium on Sunday September 10th at 4:25 PM. With the Dolphins, Bills and even the (gulp)  Jets all trending upward, and the Patriots shopping for offensive linemen at the TJ Maxx close out rack, this could be a very  long season. In five short years, we've gone from "Can we just skip ahead to the AFC Championship Game already?" to "Boy, it sure would be swell to win a playoff game again someday!" Based on what I saw in the preseason, I think we're looking at an above average defense and a below average offense. This is maybe a   6 and 11 team.  I have no idea how I'm going to get through this year. I knew the post-Brady transition was going to be hard... But I just didn't think it would be managed this poorly. As such, we'll be slowly transitioning this little weekly fan newsletter into a support group.  Just a quick reminder of what last season looked like. Gene p

Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 5

The New England Patriots play Derek Carr and the New Orleans Saints at Gillette Stadium on Sunday October 8th at 1:00 PM. I'd like to thank the Patriots for letting me off the hook early this year. No messing around this time. They are  definitely   not  a playoff team. I'm done talking about Mac Jones. I have nothing nice to say about him. Please don't mention his name to me ever again. "He's good! He just needs better weapons around him!" /throws ball two yards short of wide open receiver Jean-Luc power rankings: 1) Godard 2) Picard If I had to talk myself into it, here are three things I'm feeling kinda sorta OK about this year so far: 1) Some of the rookies have been mostly good, especially Christian Gonzalez.  (And now he's hurt!) 2) Probably going to see a lot more Keion White with Judon going down. 3) Demario Douglas might be good. Just hang on to the football. Did the Patriots score 20 last week? My Brothers and Sisters of Our Lady of the Immac
