    I can’t remember the last time I enjoyed a regular season this much… I loved the last 5 years of Brady (‘til 2019), but the regular season games weren’t must see tv.

    This year is appointment viewing. 
    Agreed! That was so fun to watch. 
    It was so sweet to see the PATRIOTS wearing my favorite logo in the NFL. I even pulled out my old 32 year old red PATRIOTS jersey #80 PEE WEE it still fits. This game was loads of fun to watch.

    Nice to see that defense do what they did yesterday, especially to Coach Hardo there in Detroit; that guy’s a clown. 
    Patricia & Judge did a good job both preparing Zappe & the play calling, (or whomever was calling the plays). 
    Zappe’s holding Jones’ spot down well enough, but I’ll need to see more out of him before I’m convinced he should get the nod over Jones once he’s healthy.

    Seems like BB isn’t guaranteeing MC gets his starter role back. I’m tellinya, if Zappe gets on a role, BB is riding the hot hand. Stay tuned.

    BZ…. Means BiZness.

    Mac Jones - benched
    BZ - marches in (crowd goes wild) and leads a drive - TD 

    Folks,  the QB controversy is over. Mac Jones will probably be requesting a trade in the off-season.  BZ is going to lead this team to the promise land. This is the most excited I’ve been in years for this team

    Full disclosure, I heard a pre-draft interview with Zappe done by Jim Miller and Pat Kirwan on Sirius/XM.  I was about to switch over to golf but he said something that intrigued me. I listened to the whole interview and thought to myself, this sounds like a BB late round pick. Was happy (and not really surprised) when they chose him, despite never seeing the kid throw a football. He just sounded like a winner to me.

    I don't understand splitting the 1st team reps between both quarterbacks last week. Belichick outsmarted himself on this one. 

    & where the f was the defense last night? What a disaster.

    Glad I had tix to see Adam Sandler last night and didn't get to see this game (or the Celtics, man Chicago kicked our asses twice last night)
    Heard the 4th Q on radio driving home. Zo sounded really down on the team, that is a bad sign.

    That was one awful performance in front of a home crowd. It's been so long since they've looked this bad. However, it can only get better I think. 

    That said the Bruins are playing well even though they have several major players out with injuries.

    If the Pats are a JV team, what does that make the jets? Pop Warner.

    I’m pretty disappointed they didn’t ride the Zappe train. The D has been lights out and the offence seemed to have more rhythm with BZ under center. 
    Guess we will see how it all unfolds, but the offence under MJ has been pretty lethargic.

    Huge game upcoming against the Jets. This to me is the game of the year for the Patriots. It's still possible to win this division and make something of this season.

    That said the BRUINS are so 🔥 hot they're melting ice.

    Disagree… I think the Zappe we saw in the 2nd half of the Bears game is the real Zappe. The more film teams got on him, the less effective he was going to be. Jones has the better skill set / higher ceiling.

    Training camp 2023 will decide who the future is. I am not wowed by Mac.

    Were you not around for Mac's rookie year then he had the 8th best completion percentage in the league and made the pro bowl? 

    I agree he's having a tough sophomore season, but there's a reason he was drafted in the 1st round and Zappe was drafted in the 4th. 

    There's also 8 more games to be played this year... it's a bit early to start making predictions for the 2023 training camp.
