nobody 2,044 Posted November 3, 2020 I think I'm going to watch this whole game. Let me know if my inane observations bother any of you. I think Tampa Bay is going to try and pour it on. This is Tom Brady trying to show the world that he's the GOAT and I think he wants to make sure he has the total TD record. I don't expect them to take the foot off the gas even if they're up 28 which makes me think they'll try to rekindle the good ole days with Gronk a bit in this game. I predict a Gronk short TD. On the flip side, the Giants showed some moxie against the Eagles even though they lost, and TB is coming off games against Vegas and GB where they 1. shutdown the penalties and 2. played with a playoff intensity for 60 minutes against both teams. This should be a bit of a let down spot for them as they look ahead to the Saints and their 2nd week of travel to a good night spot. Do they have the discipline to keep it together in Vegas, and then turn around and not find some groupies in New York in a game everyone is telling them they should win easily? We'll know if they come out on their first drive and the penalties are back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We'll know if they come out on their first drive and the penalties are back. i can't imagine TB will look past MNF when they are a game back in the race for homefield. but, i basically agree with everything else. i could see the coaches making TB hand the ball off alot late Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AxeElf 787 Posted November 3, 2020 As long as Ronald Jones scores more than -3 points (Half-PPR; opponent win percentage 7%)... AND As long as Brady scores less than 29 points (PPR; opponent win percentage 16%)... AND As long as Gronk and the Tampa Bay D don't outscore Wayne Gallman by 24 points (Half-PPR; opponent win percentage 15%)... AND As long as Wayne Gallman doesn't outscore Daniel Jones and Ronald Jones by 7 points (PPR; opponent win percentage 6%)... I will record my first 5-0 week of this crazy season! Parenthetically, it's hilarious that Yahoo thinks it more likely for Ronald Jones to fail to score at least -3 points than it is for Gallman to outscore the Jones boys, by the higher win percentage for my opponent in the former league.

nobody 2,044 Posted November 3, 2020 2nd and 1 is an extremely advantageous situation for the offense, but coordinators never take advantage of it. You would think they would run some play-action every now and then, but they always just do the straight dive every time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nobody 2,044 Posted November 3, 2020 2 minute warning. Giants threatening at about the 15 with a 1st down. If the Giants go up 14-3 and they can hold TB the second half line should be about Bucs -7, right? So that would mean they can lose by 4 and cover. If the Giants get a FG, that makes it 10-3. I think you make that line -6, so TB needs to lose by 1 or win or tie to cover. I'd be on TB in those spots given the Danny Dimes propensity to turn the ball over.

nobody 2,044 Posted November 3, 2020 That 4th down is where a veteran QB really screws your defense. He's like, "sweet. you'll rush 3. I'll just sit here until someone gets open." Young QBs like to panic in that spot because the internal clock starts saying, "THROW THE BALL!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nobody 2,044 Posted November 3, 2020 TB got lucky Brady didn't get smashed. CB blitz, but he needed to jump over a d lineman that fell over in his way. Brady wasn't even looking. He was about to get lit the f up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nobody 2,044 Posted November 3, 2020 Let's circle back to the end of the 1st half. First of all TB screwed up and stopped the clock with 11 seconds left on 4th down. Should've left 2 seconds if you're going to kick that field goal. That way Giants never even touch the ball. But then if you're the Giants and you know you're going to kneel it, why not tell your kick returner to return it no matter what? Succop doesn't have a strong leg, so to get it in the endzone, he kicked a low line drive. That's a perfect ball to bring out. I know there is only a .1% chance you'll turn that in to something, but there's a 0% chance you'll turn a touchback into something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mickens is 5'7" and the ball was 3 yards out of the back of the endzone. How the hell was he ever going to catch that. He'd have to have a 12 foot vertical.
