Patriots Fans: Have you come to terms with the truth yet?

[Acebb]

Belichick for his career as a favorite of 7 or less at home: 45-17-7 ATS

 

[HamGlaze]

I always love watching Tom Brady come playoffs. He plays with such laser focus and competitiveness. But this year I can’t help but be jumping on the Phillip Rivers bandwagon a little. Just hoping for a great game and whatever team advances I’ll be pulling for to the end.

19 degrees, good weather for a lot of running which is what NE gonna need to beat LAC

 

[919]

James White is gonna have a good day

 

[PatsFan1283]

Yeah, White's usage should be very high with NE not having very favorable matchups at WR/TE vs secondary. Used passing to RB's a ton last year vs LAC.

Main prop I got is Gronk U 49.5. That's 10 yards too high based on his name, dude looks finished. Maybe they shot him up with some good shit over the bye week but Derwin James is the next star safety in the league and he just isn't the same guy. Expect NE to be run heavy today if they can be as well.

Other props I like for less are Ekeler over 48.5 total yards (don't think MG3 is healthy) and Burkhead over 15.5 rushing yards (not avail too many places)

Agree- White is gonna have a huge day.. I also think Edelman will have a big day...maybe a trick passing td?

 

[Willie99]

I believe Gronk is another guy who plays "tippy top" in the playoffs

Seriously, think this is his season

 

[PatsFan1283]

I don't have any props on White, his 65 total rec/rush yards is pretty high so increased usage/role seems priced in. With Burkhead active, just don't really see the value.

Edelman role is huge now with Gronk decline but King is 1 of the better slot CB's in the league. Not really much of an opinion on his # either.

I like Michel +750 1st TD as well. That should be more like 5-1.

 

[seldomseen]

Ekeler o27.5 is the best prop on the board imo

 

[michael777]

Phillip will fall hard in the cold weather

Well done

 

[joebatters]

Well done

Yeah really...nice

 

[PatsFan1283]

Gilmore bad bad blown covg there. Be interesting if LAC plays as vanilla as they did on the 1st drive, 7 DB's, 4 man rush, tackle underneath.

Brady usually picks that type of vanilla, bend but don't break zone apart. Pats aren't the Ravens.

Went over in 1 quarter. Nice call.

Chargers D seems gassed, been on the field a quarter straight almost.

 

[JustinCruise]

The unbelievable run of greatness is over.

All of us outside New England can see it. How are you doing with coming to grips with reality?

lol

 

[Avocado33]

Oh what do we have here? Brady ripping apart an overrated defense in the playoffs again? Shocker

 

[Bourn]

Again, anything can happen. But I just dont see it. Not this year.

* The Chargers are a better road team than home team.
* Many experts believe the Chargers are the best team in the AFC, and I agree with them.
* This is the weakest Patriots team in years.

You can argue against my 2nd point, but points 1 and 3 are pretty much fact. If Patriot fans are honest with themselves, they will admit this NE team has plenty of flaws.

I think the weather and location of the game is more of a factor working against LAC, not the opponent.

If I'm wrong, I'll tip my cap and look forward to next week. But I think it will be a competitive game no matter who comes out on top.

Weakest Patriots team, huh? They look pretty good so far scoring a TD on every possession. 3 of 3 so far. Hate to see a strong Pats team.

 

[bodyforlife]

Looks like the NE haters are eating crow yet again

 

[PatsFan1283]

This D looking like Duran right about now....Michel/White/Edelman all over props already.

No mas, no mas
