Re: Skins vs Pats - Game day thread
Changes my opinion of us for the better. I just keep going back to three plays (though if I throw in Garcons miscues there are 19 more). First play i cannot get out of my head is Carriers drop. Man he was going to run for a while and it was just such a crucial part of the game. Second play was the onsides kick. Ill be honest - i blinked and missed it. Damn that was unexpected. That was just a huge swing. Huge. Last was the complete disaster by Culliver. We pressured Brady into throwing a lame duck, the God damned ball hung in the air FOREVER! If anything it should have just been batted around. When I saw it coming down n Culliver was no where to be found i was literally in shock - I think I still am. To me that was when things got out of hand. It put them from a punting situation to a scoring one and that was it.
We made a handful of other miscues but those three plays could have changed everything. None of those plays were due to "we arent in their league yet" or any of that stuff. Now I know that as a team we are not the Pats yet. I know they were supposed to beat us. BUT imo all three of those things could have gone the other way. Grant is capable of corralling that kick. Carrier is capable of catching a fucking football. Culliver is capable of not being a complete moron on third and long and stepping in front of an up for grabs throw that he had all day on. Of course because of who they are and who we are 27-10 is expected but those three stupid things change that score big time.
Im strangely confident in this team rite now because we were that close imo.
