PostGame Thread OFFICIAL POST GAME THREAD: Patriots Lose 34-0 to Saints

[bruinator]

So was it Bill or Brady? Tough call…

Very clearly BRADY>

Bill is the best head coach ever in my eyes. But he just can’t or won’t adapt to today’s NFL and the Patriots cannot win his way anymore.

He also picked some bad groceries.

I wanna see Zappe start with DD, Boutte, Reagor, and Thornton next week. If they suck, I wanna see it. Can't be too much worse than what we've seen over the last 2 weeks. Zap also needs to ease up on the caffeine. Geezus. Could see the overthrow on the release.

How about NO. Zappe sucks just as bad. Rather see Grier or Cunningham.

Yeah, never mind the qb, the patriots under BB were disciplined , mistake free, they did all the little things right, and took advantage of the Other teams mistakes. We don't see that anymore which leads me to believe that the coaching isn't there any longer. I think jones might have been a really good qb, but the General Manager never got him a decent o-line and the skill players to go with it, and his decisions such as far as coaches go was another disaster.

Gronk said in an interview that Brady was anal about extra practice with players, getting everything right with no mistakes and telling players where he wants them. Heard same from many players. IMO a lot of the team's discipline came from him.

That’s the key point. It would be one thing if they were losing playing Patriots football. They’re not, and it’s been going on multiple seasons now. Unforced errors. Terrible special teams. Undisciplined decisions. That’s why I’ve sadly reached the conclusion that BB has lost his mojo and we need to start moving on.

Is Shedeur Sanders special? I like the idea of having Prime Time's kid on the team. I'm assuming some issues with decision making and maturity, however, after hearing he's already bought a Maybach and a Rolls Royce Phantom as a college kid.

He already said he wasn't coming out this year because he didn't want to be viewed as a consolation prize knowing he wouldn't go first round

They have to try, they have crap right now.

I know but its not like its easy, it could takes years.

Not in the beginning, but definitely at the end.

 

[TheBeers]

I would keep all of the young and prime-career guys on D. On offense I'd keep the rookies.. everyone else is on the table for trade. Bourne and the TE's could get value back, Onwenu, Brown as well.

 

[SVN]

They had one of the worst offenses in the league and downgraded from Meyers and Harris. They didn't really do much to address the offensive line. And they went pretty much all in on defense and injuried basically nullified that.

So why was it all patricia ?

 

[Hammer of Thor]

Mayo is a continuation of Bill. Their message is dead. We need an offensive coach to develop our next quarterback. I'm all in for McVay.

He’s already with the Rams under contract through 2026. Why would the Rams let him go?

I posted this about brady within the last year, brady made every one around him better, they feed off of him. He was a true leader in every sense of the word.

He also picked some bad groceries.

George Pickens just elevated a bad QB into a win against a top team in this league while Thornton who Belichick selected before him hasn’t played a down and has been on IR his first two season in the league. So I guess I agree with you.

So was it Bill or Brady? Tough call…

It was both. Problem was, Bill tried to rebuild with a philosophy that was out of 2001. That strategy doesn’t work now. And it doesn’t seem like he’s seeing his mistakes and correcting. More like doubling down. Tom saw what he needed to win, elsewhere… and went for it. Bill doesn’t seem to see what he needs right now. That’s the problem. I love BB and everything he’s done for the Pats… but you are what your record says you are.

 

[italian pat patriot]

If Rodgers was playing much probably we are 0-5
Enough said

 

[Uptown]

I don’t think BB intended to tank for Caleb or Maye, but I honestly believe he’s at least considering the possibilities now considering the state of the team.

 

[festy1986]

If you can tell me that Bill will remain on as head coach while they find someone else to pick the players then fine.

Otherwise I see no point in Bill sticking around.
