Game Day Thread Official Post Game Thread- Raiders beat the Pats

[sb1]

Seems appropriate

 

[RIpats88]

Thing is. A season ago we had 10 wins made the playoffs and a promising rookie QB who had 22 tds. You want to see growth.

Instead, We have gone backwards in every category. And this is pretty much on the coaching staff. And really on Bill for putting Patricia and Judge in the roles.

Big changes need to happen this off-season

 

[Froob]

It was stupid not to throw it deep, you could always get a PI and kick it. Really dumb call by Patricia

 

[Love The Drake]

He’s Davis Mills with a better defense.

Mills looks much better than Mac.

Really dumb play call by Patricia, theme of the season.

Mac got two TD's that should have won the game. He made two more throws that would have put them in FG range which would have won the game.

He did enough to win that game. Even if you ignore all that, and just watch the game.... at worst he made the big pass that set up the go ahead TD and the defense **** the bed and he got screwed.

If you can go through 4 individual game changing plays the QB got hosed on by his coaches or teammates and all 4 would have won the game... and the QB should have had the game won without them... you can't blame the QB. Carr deserved to win less.

Um, no. We played a poor defensive team. Their secondary is probably even worse than the Vikings. We gashed them in the run game. There were open receivers all over the place. Mac missed them too many times.

Name BOB OC & assistant HC. Give him full autonomy over the offense & the offensive coaching staff. That's a start.

 

[PatsFan2]

Mac had himself a day. 3.6 yards per attempt and got destroyed trying to “tackle” chandler

Meyers hit the opponent in stride Mac 10 could learn a thing or two.

 

[Nunchucks]

Mac was bad today, though he did have some good throws. Wrs did not help.

OL playe fairly well.

Defense did its job

Patriots offense is a train wreck

 

[lancerman]

He was 13/31/131/0 tell me again how good he did, I can't see it there, and I didn't see it on my screen...and it's a big screen, I'dve seen it.

That's great. Add a TD for the two he got that his coach took away and his TE took away. Then add the two big passes he made that went incomplete because his "receivers" couldn't make basic plays. Then he's about over 200 with a TD and around 50% with the win.

If you need to blindly look at box scores you won't be able to overcome people picking apart what actually happened.

 

[Triumph]

Let's stop kidding ourselves Our Offense will not be able to keep up with our next three opponents. Mac Jones 13 of 31 passing.

He was high fiving on the sideline over making a FG.

 

[PowerRunRevival]

The worst part is the team played well, until they just did, well whatever they did. SMH. See ya guys next September

They played well in the second half. Not in the first half or in the last minute. They played like 25 good minutes.

Ok I’ll play

Mac grabs Chandler Jones face mask with 1 hand and vice grips his balls with the other and brings him down

Then gets a 15 yard penalty and raiders kick FG to win, Mac is a dumb piece of **** for not knowing better than to commit a penalty there

Hopefully I’m wrong but I predict that this will be the new norm on this board, even if Mac moves on and they inevitably cut Zappe, any QB we have will forever have factions blaming them when we’re losing

Brady leaving and this team being journeymen now is a disaster for an angry and miserable Boston fanbase

We basically have a bunch of Felgers on this board now and they’ll never go away because we’ll never have another dynasty like we did with Brady

Yeah you're 100% right. The last play was not Mac's fault, it was an awful tackle attempt and if he tackled him illegally the Raiders would have been in field goal range and the Pats would have lost anyway.

Sports radio absolutely has had a negative effect on the fanbase. With the team being so good for so long sports radio needed to be aggressively negative with dumbed down arguments to drive controversy. That worked really well when the team was good, but now that the team is mediocre the small bits of positivity that were on sports radio have disappeared.

Maybe if the team gets bad enough those fans will just go away and we can start fresh with stupid consensus takes.

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

The Pats coaching cost them this game! The ridiculous series at the goal line, the prevent defense, and the ridiculous ending.

The Pats would have at least one maybe more SB championships if they never traded Chandler Jines for a bag of magic beans.

Clearly BB genius was Brady. This is the worst prepared team in the league!!!!

Maybe draft a playmaker instead of a Div 3 guard in the first round.

Maybe draft a game changing WR.

Mac Jones is the most unclutch QB I’ve ever seen. He literally has NEVER come through in crunch time.

Hire an actual offensive coordinator

 

[stcjones]

Mac Jones on the night - 13/31 for 112 yards and no TDs. Blame the OC all you want but those are bottom 5 QB numbers.

More about HORRIFIC Pre 2000 like play calling that happened tonight….if BB and staff Do NOT get fired after this season…..Kraft must b mentally gone

This is the correct take. Every single player on offense besides Stevenson had a worse year than last year. Every single one. You have to look at coaching

The former OC who got the hell out of town after 1 season with Corky just neutered our boy.

This is a winner. I expected trips on one side then disguise the burner Thornton on the other side. Look off Thornton, then throw it deep to him.

That’s what I was expecting. Not a draw and the Stanford lateral sessions by a couple of non-Stanford guys…if you get my drift.

 

[FCB02062]

lest we forget, the Pats only scored 20 points on offense vs one of the worst pass defenses in the league and last week only scored 20 points last week vs a similarly terrible AZ pass defense. we're talking TWO touchdowns....TWO! this is an offensive league, the days of winning w defense, special teams and running games are over....the Patriots have the worst offense in the nfl

 

[PatsFan2]

I wonder if Meyers thought Chandler Jones was still a Patriot?

I understand the frustration about not having Brady, but I think BB's failures over the last couple years have a lot to do with the brain drain we've had at OC, DC, OL coach, etc.
