You don’t go from down 17 in the 4th quarter to down 3 by having no fight. They have a lot of issues, but showing fight when they’re down isn’t one of them.
You are missing the point. Patriots should not have been in this position in the first place. Don't you see this? For every play you miss it turns out to hurt you. Pick of the ball, stay in your lane, protect the edge, no stupid penalties to give the ball back to their offense. Yes, great fight, whoohoo. Guess what, no one cares if you loose. Oh yeah, 4th and inches and we get called for a 5 yard penalty as Mac tries to pull them offsides, did Brady ever do that?

You said no fight. I’m telling you they had fight and this is the proof.
They are football stupid. Undisciplined in all on-field aspects. Can let themselves get bullied around a bit. Seem to read their own press instead of starting tough. All that is true. And deficient on talent at certain spots too. But they don’t give up, they show fight.
Attended my 1st Mac game today
Note: I'm the Eddie Mush of sporting events and charter fishing excursions (losses and empty nets)
Quick thoughts:
Roster half full of JAGs
Harry is glacially slow and nothing more than a decoy
WRs can't get any separation Both Buffalo and Miami's DBs dominate NE's WRs
Pats/Mac have to rely on timing passes and jump balls to complete anything downfield which sickens me
Athletics QBs can get 1st downs with their legs whenever they choose vs NE, usually a deathblow to NE's comeback
As much as I like Harris, Rham is special
My confidence level that Mac is the guy is about a 4 out of 10. Watching him trotting onto the field, I find myself thinking "Least athletic jog I've ever seen"
Still waiting for Mac to throw a ball away instead of taking the sack
Clearly Meyers is his binky
Smith's roll is unexplainable
So many dropped INTs, I was thinking nefarious thoughts about the team's motives
When will the ST coach be fired? It's a clusterphuck
Common denominator in losses===>Team loses LOS on both sides of ball
Saw this posted earlier in this thread...
So true, Boogiemen 2.0 frauds
Teams run all over this defense and can't get stops with game on line

This defense needs so much help this offseason. I truly believe we are not aggressive because BB is scared to death of our backend. He is trying to flood zones and cover everything up.
I know that Barmore, Judon, Dugger, Adrian Philips are 4 key elements of this defense, and I hope that JC Jackson stays (even though he fell asleep today) and makes a 5th. But 4 guys are not a lot.
We badly need a top CB, a whole new linebacking crew, another DE.
Between Perkins and Uche, someone has to step up. Hard to have faith in Winovich at this point.
I'd love a top WR for Mac but the offense is largely set outside of the question about Wynn and his potential last year next year.
Concentrate on that defense, because as well as it has performed, it is severely lacking in talent, and many of our guys are very long in the tooth: McCourty, Mills, Hightower, Van Noy.
After the team started 2-4, if you told me they’d go 8-3 down the stretch & make the playoffs, I would’ve asked how much you’ve had to drink! If they’re one & done, so what? They already exceeded my expectations, they’re playing with house money at this point. They finished 10-7 & got into the playoffs with a rookie QB (hasn’t happened in the NFL since Dak with the Cowboys in 2016 I believe), and with only three pro bowlers, and one is a special teams guy! We’re too spoiled as Patriots fans. The Michael Jordan Chicago Bulls won their 6th NBA title in 8 years in 1998, then dismantled the dynasty. It took them 6 years to get back to the playoffs. It took the Patriots one year! We’re very very lucky, just enjoy the ride & Mac’s development!
I usually like Reiss because he’s just factual. Don’t really need him talking about how the guy was “emotional” and the injury might “affect his off-season” whatever that means.
