The Official Patriots vs Chiefs Game Thread

[Archeryaddict12]

Patriots were down by 34 points before a meaningless touchdown cut the deficit to 27. This looks like it will be the worst loss by the Pats since the They Hate Their Coach Game.


In 2013 the Pats lost four regular season games by 18 points (7, 3, 4, 4), and then lost in the playoffs by 10.

In 2012 the Pats lost four regular season games by 11 points (2, 1, 1, 7), and then lost in the playoffs by 15.

In 2011 the Pats lost three regular season games by 15 points (3, 8, 4), and then lost in the playoffs by 4.

In 2010 the Pats lost two regular season games by 34 points (14, 20), and then lost in the playoffs by 7.

In 2009 the Pats lost six regular season games by 40 points (7, 3, 1, 21 (Saints), 1, 7), and then lost in the playoffs to Baltimore by 19 to end the year of discontent (Adalius Thomas, Shawn Springs).

In 2008 the Pats lost five regular season games by 74 points (25 (Ronnie Brown wildcat game), 20, 3, 3, 23) in a no-playoff year with Matt Cassel at QB.

In 2007 the Pats lost one game by three points.

In 2006 the Pats lost four regular season games by 41 points (10, 7, 3, and the Miami audio tape game by 21), and then lost in the playoffs by 4.

In 2005 the Pats lost six regular season games by 78 points (10, 24 to SD, 8, 19 to Indy, 10, 2), and then lost in the playoffs by 14.

In 2004 the Pats lost two regular season games by 15 points (14, 1).

In 2003 the pats lost two regular season games by 34 points (31 in the They Hate Their Coach Game, 3).



As bad as the playoff blowout loss to Baltimore was, the debacle in Cleveland was, the wildcat game was or the audio tape games was, this was worse.

You have to go all the way back to first game of the 2003 season to find a loss by the Patriots that was as bad as this one was.

It sucks. But it was due to happen I guess.

 

[English Patriot]

Please tell me you are listening to Steve Young drop SCIENCE right now. Nobody has done more with less lately, TOM IS NOT THE PROBLEM and no garbage time Garropolo TD is going to change that.

 

[saspack]

I hope Brady demands to get traded to a team with real NFL players.

Way to go Bill......you broke Tom Brady.

Can we get a first round pick from trading Brady? Unlikely based on the past four games. I will take a 2nd rounder

Trent Dilfer the worst ring wearing QB in the history of our game insulted Brady and our team on national tv

 

[PatsFanInVa]

Oooooo "Our team competed there at the end..."

 

[Efstratios]

Trent Dilfer the worst ring wearing QB in the history of our game insulted Brady and our team on national tv

As pissed off as I am with practically everyone involved in the New England Patriots organization tonight, I have never considered Trent Dilfer to be anything more than an insignificant blip that only crosses my mind when he's brought up. The Pats could lose by 60 pts, and I wouldn't give a **** about what he says. Besides, I'm sure that we as Pats fans have bigger problems to worry about than the mediots.

Kraft will cut corners to save a penny on anything did I see the Nike Cleats with the backwards Swoosh?

A non-factual overreaction, but I guess games like this one are bound to bring out responses like this.

 

[DefenseRules]

Brady will retire. He said that he would retire when he sucks. Well he sucks now. I doubt that he will finish the season.

 

[clam chowdah]

I'd love to smack dilfer right in the kisssah

 

[Jackson 2]

Sometimes I wonder if some of those live thread people here are fans of the New England Patriots or just Tom Brady.

Seriously..

It's a legitimate issue to wonder about.

 

[sevengables_2207]

If there is a silver lining, the ground game averaged 4.7 yard per rush.

Also, LaFell had over one hundred yards and a score.

Still, tough to beat any team when the collective performance is as bad as it was tonight, tough venue and all...

Bring in Weiss let Tyms and Boyce play get some speed on the field for God sakes sign Stephen Hill off Carolinas practice squad and pay a coach to night and day throw football's to Hill and take him to classes on how to catch a ball.
Shake it up.
Trade Admendola for a offensive or defensive lineman Let Josh Mcdaniels work with the receivers but let Weiss call the plays.
Trade Steven Ridley and sign a back with some serious speed.
Bench Ninkovich. Start Buchanon just deal with the growing pains kid has talent.
Cut Vellano now just do it good guy I'm sure Maybe even a great guy but mediocre player no business being on the field.
Move Ryan to Safety promote Butler.
Light a fire under this offenses ass whatever it takes.
Solder I think he needs s hug and some help no idea what is going on with him.
Bench Gronk let him heal get him back for the end of season stretch he is not near back to 100 percent.
Looks like 65 percent to me frickin Tamba Hali blanketed him.
Do run multiple formations plays with Vareen and White on the field where they take turns dropping in the flat.
Run Reverses even if it doesn't work make the defense guess a little.
involve Devlin in the run and pass game.
Stop Running Edelman on Deep posts Slants, crosses, screens even hand him the ball in the backfield but don't send him deep more than a few times a game to surprise defenses.
Dobson! We need this man get better soon! Sign Darick Rogers we need to bring in all the players who the defense has to respect speed wise.
This was a disgusting showing tonight.
I hope they have a funeral and bury the tape as a motivational move.
Still love my Patriots but changes need to come soon.

Too much to read but if I did I would probably agree.

 

[Bourne Again Christian]

Tom needs to show this team he is still the franchise he needs to take this team and have a meeting I don't know why they are so out of sync.
We need more speed on offense and a attitude we need to run with anger. Control the line of scrimmage and throw the ball using play action as well as mix up formations personal.
Its bad when I can tell what the Patriots are going to do every snap from my living room.

 

[FourierSeries]

were going to be okay fellas, things will get straightened out

Sure, next year.

Garapalo will save us. Don't worry.

 

[itgl72]

To be fair, I thought a Gronk spike, at this point, would have looked pretty absurd.

I agree. Why I said he better not spike.

 

[Jackson 2]

Brady will retire. He said that he would retire when he sucks. Well he sucks now. I doubt that he will finish the season.

That statement suggests to me that you merit being institutionalized.

 

[PatsFanInVa]

Brady will retire. He said that he would retire when he sucks. Well he sucks now. I doubt that he will finish the season.

Bold prediction. Thus far he sucks this year. He really does. And I'm a koolaid drinker. Some solid o-line play for much of this game put it on display. But I don't think he's ready to say he sucks, period... What I can see happening is him not starting if this continues. The moving finger writes and having writ moves on.

 

[Bourne Again Christian]

It was tounge in cheek of course.

You should change your name to "I'm a moron"
