Ring Envy: Week 8 Patriots vs. Chargers

  • Lets whoop Bilicheat and get back to the top of our division.Bolt Up!!!

  • Gonna have to DVR most of the game due to Halloween commitments. Cest la vie. All I can say is my neighbor is a New England transplant and I want NOTHING more than to beat the Patriots ASSES all the way back to Foxboro.

  • Today, we'll learn a few things.We'll find out how a Brandon Staley team responds to getting it's ass kicked in the previous game.And we'll find out as the Chargers play the team that gave them their biggest ass-kicking a year ago.There are so many reasons to think this could be a really, *really* ugly game, and this game therefore provides a pretty decent yardstick for measuring the impact (or lack thereof) that Staley is having on the Bolts.It's kind of like you're undergoing exploratory surgery, and you don't know if some life-challenging cancer is going to be discovered, or if it turns out-- despite the health scare-- that you're in a hopeful, cancer-free condition. Today, we find out.

  • Is the stadium gonna be overrun by a bunch of Patriot fans? Let's send them home sad!!! Go Bolts!!

  • Looking for some revenge mojo today!

  • nice start and play selection so far

  • SCRUM TD Ekeler!

  • wow, they did not blow it dead.... and team pushed euler into endzone!!!

  • I love seeing them get a touchdown like that.

  • I love football.

  • That has to be a Baldy Breakdown next week. 2 OL and Eke moved like 6 defenders 5 yards.

  • I like the start, now let's see what our defense had for us today.

  • Not sure if anyone caught the tv capture of the look on one of NE’s LBs, hands on hips and completely exasperated, after LAC just bulldozed into the end zone. Priceless.

  • COME ON D.... THEY ARE GONNA RUN IT.

  • Blown coverage, didn't get set up on the movement.

  • Play the receivers tight, coach! 10 yard pass is a long one for this kid.

  • lEtS MaKe tHeM tHrOw DeEp!

  • Here comes the zebra bump

  • penalty gives them a first down.....

  • Henry ****** Davis up. Why don’t they put James on him?

  • so defense still can't get off the field it looks like

  • Looks like another crazy, high scoring game... sigh.

  • Mac Jones not playing like a rookie.

  • This defense is just so garbage at run defense.

  • Tillery got wrecked on that

  • Yet another penalty assisted touchdown for a Chargers Opponent

  • Looks like we’ll be going for it every 4th down today. defense is trash. Defensive scheme is so flawed only criticism from Stale

  • Zebras gonna bail Bill out all game?

  • I thought the run defense was decent on that drive but the pass defense was poor.

  • Our young defensive genius head coach can't seem to dial up confusing defense against this rookie QB.

  • how do we leave their best defender unblocked??????

  • No one near on the coverage.

  • and ST's did not stay in front of returner???

  • chargers still making way too many mental errors...... NE does not do that....

  • Its early still but this team definitely looks like a work in progress.Staley needs to draft HIS guys for his schemes cuz some of These guys look lost half the time.

  • Thank god NE quit running the ball and decided to pass they averaged 5+ you that drive lol. 

  • Tillery got tackle but Bosa created that for sure. Offense gotta produce pts here.

  • Justin Jackson! 75 yds.

  • Maybe we’ll be lucky and its NE rush defense that sucks today lol.

  • Td chargers !!!

  • The PAT is good... holy macaroni!!!!

  • Looking good so far, team seems very emotionally charged for this one

  • Who missed that tackle?

  • Who was that? Slow down and wrap up! Damnit!!!

  • BS.

  • Another BS call from the NE zebras

  • What? How tf is that roughing the passer??

  • Well, I guess it is better than watching Brady dink and dunk down the entire field and then scoring every time.

  • #25 of NE hit Tranquill right in the numbers on the back as he was pursuing Jones. Right out in the open, obvious penalty.

  • The zebras forgot that it wasn't Tom Brady in there.

  • Why is Bosa dropping in coverage?

  • Can someone explain again why TT decided to let Hunter Henry walk?

  • Why is Staley not putting Derwin James on Henry?

  • Way to scrap Chargers !

  • we are lucky there was no flag on that 4th down play....

  • The best thing other than the stop was watching Hunter Henry blow that play. I hope Belecheat gives him hell in from of chargers fans. LMAO

  • Staley has Bill scared. Tillery with the right attitude

  • Color me shocked! They pick up a flag AND nothing thrown through the melee and 4th down play?! Okay. Maybe the refs are getting their **** together.

  • They need the Aztecs punter Araiza

  • chargers still cannot cover a punt

  • ST will lose us games if they dont pull their heads out of their asses.

  • Our punt coverage still sucks

  • Run D missing again.

  • this defense is no bueno. DJ and Bosa are ghosts

  • Derwin James putting some HITS on NE ball carriers! Just coming in like a missile.

  • Bend don’t break defense is frustrating to watch. We can’t stop the run for ****

  • McDaniels is a dumbass Patriots averaging like 6 yards a carry then decide to pass thankfully lol. If I was the OC of a team playing against the Chargers I would call run plays 100% of the time and score TDs on every single drive.

  • Wtf was that Herbert. He had time but he jumped into the pressure.

  • Disaster. 3 straight 3 and outs.

  • O looked HORRIBLE at Baltimore. Not looking like world beaters today. Anyone have any guesses why we're so out of sync?

  • Yep. It's plain to me as long as the Patriot's start running the ball more they will win this one handily.

  • ever since first series, pats have dominated game......

  • our game plan was to slow down game, burn clock, try and run, keep game close.....

  • This offense is killing me

  • Damn. Adrian Philips picks of the hand of Ekeler.

  • If the O and Teams keep giving the opposition short fields, D won't stand a chance.

  • Belli has us just where he wants us

  • F****** QB has all day

  • i hate the patriots more than any other team

  • Mac Jones looks lousy. Herbert doesn't look much better.

  • I'm just annoyed we had 2 weeks to prepare and this offense looks like hot garbage

  • New OC next year man.Dude is lame.Dont care if hes staleys hero or buddy or whatever.Need better.

  • This is how the Chargers come out of a bye week after they got spanked badly in their last game? Pathetic.

  • NE played last Sunday and looks like they still have more energy than Chargers.

  • Frustrating game but the Pats are not a bad team by any stretch of the imagination.

  • Expect lots of running in the second half for New England. And we won't stop them.

  • our offense must still be stuck in Baltimore. We've been nothing since the first series.

  • NE is a very good disciplined team..... we are very lucky they did not stick with the run when they were in red zone or they would be up at least 21-14......

  • Hunter Henry does a pancake block on our cb and it’s defensive holding. Their cb holds Mike Williams and the announcers say the officials are just letting the players work it out. How come it never works out in the Bolt’s favor?

  • Will the Chargers forever be the worst team at the end of the first half and beginning of the second half???

  • Hard to watch this defense

  • NE moving ball at will......

  • We're playing like we're uninterested. No fire.

  • Telesco has to be on the phone right now - making calls - they just cannot stop the run or get enough consistent pass rush

  • Running out of DBs too.

  • Wow they actually called something against the pats. What a surprise

  • listen to roar of the patriot crowd.....

  • Huge play

  • Fumble recovered by adderly

  • Looks like New England is going to emphasize the run the rest of the game.

  • We really need a march to a TD now to take advantage of that fumble.

  • This is the spark that ignites a firestorm. Buckle in …

  • WTF are they trying to do?

  • OK that is not how u use Austin ekler. Wtf.

  • Herbert looks completely confused again. This is becoming a problem.

  • What is wrong with this offense?

  • Jeesus! Special teams.

  • Worst f****** coverage in the NFL.

  • The offense is broken !!!Herbert looks confused

  • Mother*******...we play stupid. WTF are we running into the reciever?

  • Chargers guy is just stupid there. Dumb gets you beat

  • Not a good team right now.

  • Kemon Hall got a lot of praise for Special Teams play in training camp. I ain't seeing it today.

  • our punter kicks for distance but there is zero hang time.... we need a better punter.....

  • Special teams coverage just never improves. So difficult to watch in front of your kids and keep the curse words in check.

  • I just wish our special teams unit could play to the quality of pretty much every other team rather than languishing in a special tier of terrible.

  • The NE pass rush is worrying me. What happened to all that great OL play we had a few weeks ago?

  • Ugh defense failed on 3rd

  • ST suck and suck and suck ........will this ever get correcetd?.....ass**** #37 cost us dearly there too......it's so easy to return punts against us just head for the sidelines!

  • BOLTS D line sucks beyond belief

  • Our pass defense disappears on 3rd down.

  • How many NT’s can we draft in the first round next year? How many ILB’s.sarcastic questions

  • Sorry guys, both the defensive and offensive lines are way overmatched. This is painful to watch.

  • This offense has so much talent yet continues to play like dog****. I don’t get it.

  • Opposing teams now know Herbert is a perimeter passer and as such have seen enough film to shut it down.

  • I have never seen a RT let so many rushers come in untouched than Norton. Guys are running free all day long

  • Can we find more Derwin’s!

  • Lol who was Herbert faking to

  • I think this might be a safety

  • Only Bellichek would see that....

  • bellycheat is so fricking smart..... i hate him

  • Once again, finding ways to lose. Anthony Lynn is pardoned.

  • i did not know you could challenge where the penalty occurred???,,,, is that on the list????

  • Not many challenges give you a lead and the ball....pretty smart actually.

  • Dodged a bullet, Norton was hoLding in the endzone.

  • Yuck. That was terrible.

  • F***

  • C'mon man! Really?

  • In honor of bill Paxton - Game over!

  • Cook not even looking for the ball.

  • So bad.. Pick 6 Adrian philips

  • of course an ex charger scores a pick six

  • I like Herbert, today he LOOKS LIKE ****

  • Way to let Phillips walk Telesco great move there Buddy.

  • Belicheat and his staff did their homework.

  • This sucks. Herbert needs glasses or something

  • Oh well, this team has averaged 6 wins the last 2 years. We should be happy with 8-9, I guess.

  • There was a holding a 2pt conversation by Patriots offensive lineman who tackle the Chargers player. Call it!

  • NE getting away with a lot of grabbing.

  • This team feels like it’s imploding right now.

  • I wanna know what the hell they did during the bye week? Did they all stay home jerking each other off instead of actually watching some tape?

  • If they score here then it’s ball game. Herbert looks defeated, they just showed his face on the sideline.

  • We have not showed up two weeks in a row. Is this poor coaching or poor talent or both?

  • That might be the ballgame.

  • This is just a bad team right now. They don't do anything well.

  • Welp, it was nice while it lasted. Hopefully we can beat teh lessor teams coming up...which, really NE is one of those.

  • What an awful awful AWFUL f****** showing.

  • No matter the coach, no matter the team....always Bellichick's b****.

  • Herbert has now become Derek Carr. A star in the making, then lots of questions, now seemingly proving himself. Herbert is in stage 2.

  • Such a f****** waste of time to watch these p****** play.

  • And after getting their asses whooped in Baltimore and then a bye week, I can’t believe the way this team No showed today.

  • We could not fire Lombardi soon enough. Horrible, horrible, horrible play calling two games in a row and after a bye. Absolutely pathetic.What is a RB screen, mother******? How about a deep pass to Guyton and not Allen, f*** face? How about a pass to Parham, ass****?

  • I'm feeling a bit sick. Another ass kicking from the Patriots.Time to start thinking about next year I guess.

  • from 45-0 last season to 27-24 this year. We are making progress I guess....
