Good point. I didn’t even think about that. I remember so many momentum killing penalties in the past. We haven’t had that this year.its a breath of fresh air not to be one of the most penalized teams in the league.
Bravo McCarthy!!
And the offense management and play calling is really good.its a breath of fresh air not to be one of the most penalized teams in the league.
Bravo McCarthy!!
part of that was being forced to try and establish the horrid Zeke every game.One thing I really got to give McCarthy and Quinn props for is that this team looks much more prepared to start games and are much less penalized. We used to come in and look like a complete circus, especially on games like this after a big victory.
It's that simple folks. Don't hold or jump or grab, just play football.Just let the system work. This team is built to win. Just allow Mc and Quinn to dictate the game to the other team.
even during the Parcells era, we had tooits a breath of fresh air not to be one of the most penalized teams in the league.
Bravo McCarthy!!
I thought McCarthy managed the game beautifully. That Jets defense is no joke, one of the best, most fundamentally sound defenses we will see all season.I would still like to have an offense that keeps their foot on their opponents throats at all times. The 2007 NE Patriots were notorious for running up the score, and I'm not ashamed to say I would love to see that here. But Dak isn't 2007 Brady and MM isn't 2007 Bellycheat, so we have to accept what we are given.
But the team is 2-0, and that is absolutely acceptable, even if they should have won this game 50-10 but didn't because of all the FG's.
Last year I was overly critical of MM and how the team seemed to be so undisciplined with the penalties. I have zero problems admitting when I am wrong and giving a shout to MM for a job well done, so far! I hope this remains the norm and the team can operate consistently with few penalties and bad subpar coaching decisions.
