PostGame Thread 2023 Week 4: Patriots Lose to the Cowboys 38-3 - PostGame Thread

[Ras-IR Dowling]

Sadly this is a multi year offensive tear down and rebuild. Gotta get the future qb and a quality OL in the building this offseason.

Mainly Mac Jones.

That is why I said the #1 down was obvious. He was the worst by a 1,000 miles.

But you are hard pressed to find someone who played well. People are giving the defense credit for only giving up 20, but that is because the Cowboys had so few offensive possessions because of the defensive TDs they got.

Mac will get all the blame but the o-line got mauled by the cowboys d-line. This team needs a overhaul on the offensive side of the ball. IMO, it starts with the o-line and getting a legit #1 wide receiver.

RIP - think this is the beginning of the end of an era

It's been over for 3 years.

The game finally came on for me as the Pats were tying it up 3-3, then went down 10-3, and I thought "damn, this will be tough, but this is doable..."

Fast forward 2.5 hours and I found out I had a double-aged Woodford Reserve on the top shelf, so I wasn't out of bourbon after all!

Not a bad day...

Teddy J ripping the Pats...says the opponents have answers for everything the Pats defense tries. it's true

 

[Ghost of Ben Dreith]

Mac sucked, the O-line sucked, no running game, defense played hard til the end. A total disaster, worst game I've ever watched and I've been watching for 50 years.

I've been watching for 60+....I have seen worse...but not many and not by much.

This feels like Bill’s last year on a Patriots sideline

 

[DaBruinz]

Besides Zach Wilson, Mac is the worst QB I've ever seen play in the NFL.

If another team trotted out someone like Mac at QB, we would all universally laugh at that team.

That is the biggest crock of S**T I've ever heard. Unless you've only been paying attention for the last 5 years Seriously. There have been SO MANY Quarterbacks WORSE than Jones it's pathetic.

Way to ruin a Sunday Patriots.

I was going to visit my mom after the game. Now I have no energy to do anything

I still stand by what I said about last season. If ANY other coach made the decisions Belichick did and got those results, potentially damaging the development of their second year QB, they would be fired.

Belichick should be fired. His ego is out of hand. The coaching staff has nothing new to it. They're all his kids, former coaches, and former players. His drafting is shoddy, his roster construction lopsided.

Belichick is the problem right now.

His roster building has sucked for over 5 years. Even before the end of the Brady era his drafts sucked. His coaching staff decisions have been questionable at best. And this year he doesn't even have a well coached team, which was sort of the one thing you could always give him. They are beating themselves with mistakes.

If he was anybody else, he'd be coaching for his job.

The quarterback is the most important position on the field. He sucked. He sucks. He’s gotta go.

 

[Love The Drake]

Baker Mayfield would look really good right now.
Someone needs to take the keys away from Bill now.
We shouldn’t be trading for players.
We should be selling Veterans and keeping young talent.
We need to rebuild this team with youth and speed.
They are dreadfully slow.
Bill Obrein may run to the Michigan State Job.

Coming to a white napkin near you… I resign as HC of the NEP

Im giving the defense credit cause they’re down their top 4 corners. Show me a defense that can succeed with that kind of blow.

There isn’t a position group on the offense that doesn’t need to be overhauled at this point. Maybe not the RB group.

Yuk!! feel bad for the really die hard fans here

Unfortunately some posters here deserve this. A couple in particular who were posting the same stuff today over the last 10 years or so when the team was winning

To those posters I hope this team and the losses cause you incredible pain because YOU deserve it for being such ****s over the last 10 to 15 years

If the outcome of a football game causes you incredible pain you need to touch grass

 

[sb1]

So it was all Brady then? What are your thoughts @SHOWTIME15 ?

 

[h0c2000]

Kraft chose the wrong person.

Something has to give.
