This doesn’t really hurt much at all, I kind of saw it coming and knew what our issues were coming into this game. Plus we have 6 Super Bowls with the possibility of more in the future. As for today, The defense didn’t have a terrible game but the offense was its typical terrible self. This team has been the antithesis of patriot football under BB. Went from being the #2 seed to being bounced out of the playoffs in the wild card round. Lost to the dolphins at home, lost to the titans at home in a prime time playoff game, lost to the Texans on MNF, we don’t usually lose those games. Was it injury? A lack of talent? We’re we just soft like in 2009? Maybe it’s a good thing if Josh leaves, we need young minds on offense to return to winning ways. I think BB could stay into his 70s
 
-Starting center had a bloodclot and was put on IR.
-First round WR was injured before the season and missed half a year of development.
-A big pick up in Thomas ended up being released for the sake of Antonio Brown
-Antonio Brown doesn't know how to act around women.
-Josh Gordon doesn't know how to act around drugs.
-Edelman got banged up all year
-Wynn missed a huge chunk of the year with turf toe
-Cannon missed a huge chunk of the year
-Sanu got injured immediately after the trade and it takes awhile to learn this offense.

We were very unlucky this year
 
Pats didn't have wepunz this year.
 
No way you can blame injuries for this.

Patriots started playing very undisciplined, “loser” football for much of the second half of the season. Terrible penalties; bad situational football. Bad coaching decisions at the worst times. Bad execution at the worst times. Reminds me of 2009 when it was clear that they needed a totally new group of leaders to build around. It does not feel at all like 2015 when they were derailed by injuries but fought nobly. This team just seemed to be missing its heart, soul, brain, and guts. That’s the type of team they’ve beaten so many times. You felt it this entire game vs. the Titans, that they were already defeated well before the fourth quarter. 2009 was the end of an era and rebuild. 2019 is the end of another era time for another rebuild. Their core players just looked old, tired, and finished.
 
What went wrong was Robert Kraft got caught getting a *, which then spiraled to him cutting Antonio Brown over texts and allegations to try and appease the SJWs of the media, who in turn buried his * story.

Nah, their D will be close to this good next year. They need to find a replacement for Chung and some safeties and LB's. But overall the was pretty great this year. They just need to slow down running QB's or good to great RB's.
 
What went wrong was last week. Unbelievable the team lost to Miami at home with a first round bye on the line. That secured it for me knowing this wasn’t their year. No way that should of ever happened or would have happened in the past.

Please. It was two handies.
 
Let me add some addenda:
BB never addressed TE which he's had years to do
BB hasn't drafted a great offensive skill player in well over 10+ years
BB cheaps out when trying to sign skill players-see Adam Humphries, Manny Sanders etc
BB cheaps out resigning decent players who Brady has connection to- Hello Amendola, Deion
BB lets our stud LT go and has our OL completely dependent on a rookie with an injury history and who has never played the LT position
BB mistakenly drafts below NFL average RB and WR with 1st rd picks
BB drafts OL guys who are injured and/or questionable
BB drafts strange no name DB projects (in RD 2!) who no one has ever heard of
BB drafts weird Navy guys and rugby players for more "fun" projects
BB stacks defense positions 3 or 4 deep and has ex cons, mental cases, broken down geriatrics and addicts for offense
BB lets his idiot son try to run the defense
BB alienates and tries to run the greatest of all time out of town for ego reasons

Anyone notice a theme here?

Saved me alot of typing. A decent TE would have helped also.

He drafted Gronk and Herandez less than 10 years ago.

They've won 3 Super Bowls in the last decade.

What went wrong is that he got caught. It was our lucky charm. He flies down to Asia spa, do his thing and we keep winning. Now no more lucky mojo. He needs to find a local Asia Spa.
 
What’s that got to do with this season and a disappointing wild card loss to Ryan Tannehill and the Titans?

Kraft got two handies and they still won, is my point.
 
I just want to say Fck Sanu. The image of Brady throwing a pick 6 on his last pass while this useless, lazy dipsh1t stands flat footed is everything that he should be associated with. I have never seen a more infuriating player. Worst trade they’ve ever made and not close.
