Post Game Thread: Titans beat the Pats

[SHOWTIME15]

The good news is: we play the Jets next

No we have a bye

He is.

They burned a #1 on a RB. They gave Burk decent money. They paid White. They gave Develin $. That is not being cheap.

He just a bitter, prima- donna athlete who felt entitled to more money.

Spot on. There are at least a dozen RBs who are better.

No we have a bye

Looked like the team was desperate to take a week off and recharge their bodies and minds.

Couple thoughts

Bad game, it happens, guessing you can find a game or two each year they dont play well..some they even get away with winning

Debating the worth of a player no longer on the team is a waste of time.....they ain’t here and they ain’t playing for us...I also think judging a rookie, good or bad in their first year is premature.

Brady has been a bit off all year in most games....I cant pinpoint what exactly is the issue

The one game they really cant lose is against the Steelers, that tie game the Steelers have really messes with the standings.

This would be a common type post in the Bizarro World GDT.

 

[TomPatriot]

Based on their play on the road, it is reasonable to question their toughness.

That’s funny. He should look in the mirror; he didn’t look tough coughing up the ball against the Bills or choking against the Ravens.

 

[TomPatriot]

I agree. The Pats may not always play great but they rarely if ever “fold.”

Dion could be a bit more magnanimous.

Bulletin Board material.

This team looked like it quit today from the kickoff. Why? That’s my question.

My hope is that they’re tired and banged up.

 

[ScottishPatriots]

The Pats were putrid today and have been bad on the road this season but the bye week has come at the right time but if Gronk and Edelman don't get right this offense is going to have problems.

Also get your money on the Colts to beat the Titans next week, The Titans will be hearing about how great they are all week.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Credit to the lions, the only team to beat us this year and not have someone act like a complete moron. Can you imagine if the steelers beat us

Option 1: Fire BB, Fire Josh, Release TB, Release Gilmore, Release Hogan, then re-sign every good player that's ever left and still playing at a high level!

Option 2: Losses, even UGLY ones, can happen through the span of a season. Have an expectation that coaches and players will use the losses as valuable feedback on their decision making and what they need to 'work on'.

This loss is the fault of BB and staff. Whatever gameplan they put in place and had the players practice/re-practice wasn't right. Further, whatever in-game adjustments they put in place didn't work either. Second, players didn't execute the gameplan and/or win individual one on one battles sufficiently.
The encompassing word for that is 'loss'. It happens. What I expect now is the Patriots to figure out what went wrong and attempt with everything they have to remedy it. Good chance it does happen.
We're on to the Jets...

Lmao these guys are the worst

This is exactly how we lost the super bowl last year - beaten at the line of scrimmage

Not only that but the afc game against Denver.

 

[nabwong]

Our OL was trash in this game but was overall pretty damn good in the first part of the season. Our DL was the least of the issues today.

We broke contain so many times today and over the season. We’re not as disciplined compared to other season.

Yucks... Wake up at 2am to stream "that"....?? Scuds, drops, game planfarts.. shut off early 4th qtr.. OVAH.. BUBYE.

Play of game was trick play . Brady doesn't drop it.. (yay..!) Then trips over his feet before first down.. (ug..)

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

No we have a bye

Can't lose to the bye!

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

I was at the stadium today. 50 or more % Pats fans..really felt like a home game...yet they laid a complete egg. Very disappointing game to be at.

#1 seed is gone now because KC maybe has 1 more L in them..we have 1 or 2 left with how up and down we are.

This is not a road team and come playoffs going on the road is no bueno

Patterson seemed to no be involved which is a problem because he's a playmaker. And Hogan? Is he still even on the team? My god

 

[ensoul]

Fair point but the special teams isn't on the field nearly as much as the offense or defense. Games like this are exactly why the pats are not winning a thing this year. On any given moment they can have a nuclear meltdown like this. It is extremely difficult to have confidence in this team.

 

[Jackson 2]

Fire Josh....he's overrated

Football's answer to Einstein strikes again...a profoundly convincing case in favor of state sterilization...

I hope Josh isn't Bill's replacement!

Also the thing is while losses to happen like this to every team this team has too many glaring issues for this not to be a concern. The titans offense isn't good and is 30th isn yards per game and 29 in points per game yet the pats could not stop them.

Their defense is solid as they let up 17 PPG but the pats, who average 30 PPG could only muster 10 points. While I am less concerned about the offense the defense is a major concern. It is such a shame BB wasted a first round pick on a RB when this defense has so many glaring holes.
