Yep. NE has always had a knack for making rookie QBs struggle. 
 

On the flip side, while I really like Maye, he doesn’t seem to have the weapons that other teams have. 
 

Feels like a game they should win, but I don’t feel great about a coin flip in Foxboro. The OL injuries could really make it difficult for the offense too. 

To your 1st sentence, 'Belichick' has always had a knack for making rookie QBs struggle. Fixed it for ya.

The only way we score more than 16 pts is with a Defense or ST score.

Mayo played LB for BB for 7 years and coached under him for another 4. I imagine some of that game-planning on defense has transitioned. Look at what they did to CHI a few weeks back. We will see I guess, but NE has long had a reputation for this.

So Mafi or Glow at RG?

Me too. Signing a player to the active roster sounds more permanent than elevating a player.  I know you’re only allowed so many elevations.  I’m leaning towards Glow but we will see.

[JediXMan]

Pats have a bottom 5 OL and barely any weapons. Should be a win but we'll see.

from Wikipedia:

 

College career

 

Recruited to UCLA to play on the defensive line, Mafi was measured at 411 pounds when he first entered the school. He had a jersey sized XXXXL, a size 50 waist, and 40% body fat. One of his favorite meals at the time consisted of five beef patties with cheese, a double order of fries and a milkshake, which totaled 177 grams of fat and 3,240 calories, over 150% the daily recommended intake. He was told he needed to lose weight to have a chance to play, and was able to drop to 390 by the time the season started. Mafi won the starting job and was the only true freshman starting on the defensive line. He appeared in 12 games on the year, starting nine, and recorded 16 tackles at nose tackle.

 

Mafi slimmed down to 357 by the beginning of the 2019 season, and posted 28 tackles, including four TFLs, one sack and one forced fumble while appearing in 12 games, five of which he started. He moved to the offensive line in 2020 and saw limited action in seven games as a reserve. The following year, Mafi played 12 games, three as a starter.

 

As Mafi entered his final year in 2022, he weighed at 377 pounds. He was told he again needed to lose weight, with his coach saying, "If you lose the weight, you'll have a shot." Mafi went on a diet and exercise plan and was eventually able to go down to 340 by the time the season started. He ended up starting all 13 games and was named second-team all-conference in the Pac-12. He finished his stint at UCLA with 56 games played, tying the school record.

So you can tell that Mafi Atoned for his sins

Tough game to pick today. I am 9-3 on the season now. We are probably 3 touchdowns better than the *s, but we all know how often we beat Kraft(about as often as we beat the Rooney's). Last weeks game was pretty good until the drive in the 3rd quarter where we had a lot of passing yards taken away by penalties. It looked like the guys lost interest in playing after that drive, but the refs have tendencies to do that to you sometimes. Don't know what the weather is going to be like at game time today, but I just threw a frisbee and it landed on the Colts so I'll pick the Colts to get a very rare win in fraud land today. Enjoy the game everyone. Go Colts!

Colts 42

Losers 0

I pretty have the same opinion of the Patriots.  Any win over them would be sweet. #1- Colts fan

#2- A fan of any team playing the Patriots. 

[Thunderbolt]

The Colts really need a DC  that’s more creative, proactive.snd aggressive. This defense is very good period.

The Fighting Gus Bradleys enter a once historic match up with the Pats.....Once again we don't look better (really) our competition looks worse, a close game the Colts squeak out 24-23 victory.... and we are still "in the hunt"....but over the last decade we been "in the hunt" for a wild card spot so long we should be out of ammo by now....Lucky for us this team is "afraid to pull the trigger" on anything....so we're "Still in the hunt" . 

So close to winning both showcases lol
