This was a fantastic loss. We are one step closer to our goal in seeing Mayo, his coaching staff, Wolf and Groh fired. Winning this game would just enable their bad behavior.
Do you think Kraft has it in him to fire his hand-picked HC after 1 year? What worries me is krafts statement that he’s proud to only have 3 HCs in his tenure. He admires the Steelers way to doing things.
 
And again, he doesn't throw Henry under the bus when he rightfully could have.
 
The couple positives on D were the secondary - Gonzo & Austin did well.
Entire DL is soooo weak. Even Barmore was invisible.
DC needs to be fired during the bye - that's how this goes. Your D is consistently swiss cheese, and you loose EVERY close game by giving up massive long drives in crunch time.
 
This losing like creates another subtler problem, it creates a culture of losing. Eventually the team just thinks its going to lose and it becomes almost acceptable like the jest
 
Things that piss me off.

#1. running Rham when it isn't working AND Gibson is.

#2.Not selling out to stop the run. Get gashed in the passing game if need be but getting run on is pathetic.

#3. Just seeing Polk do nothing is starting to piss me off.
I’ll go further,
Hiring Mayo
Hiring Covington
Missing out on the OCs you begged to come.
Resigning Dugger to big money
Resigning Stevenson to big money
Resigning God Chaux to good coin
Resigning the corpse of Bourne
Resigning the ashes of Jonathan Jones.
Not properly addressing Oline
Missing out on the top rated WRs in free agency
Not trading for a wr
Not being aggressive enough to move up for Worhy or Leggette
passing on McConkey and drafting Polk who maybe worse than Harry.

Only thing this front office did right is drafting Maye and not trading the pick and bringing in Gibson.

That’s the only thing this front office did right.
 
You see Jerod... that's how losing teams GO FOR TWO when they suck and it means they can win.

And the refs influence on this game cannot be ignored. The NFL has made it obvious that they don't want to the Pats to win any game.
 
I dunno, I have zero problem with this result. Offense, aside from untimely penalties, played well. Maye was great, run game was very good, D was solid and Slye nearly got an NFL record. Plus, they did anll of that and preserved their top 5 draft position.

I get fans want Ws but drafting in the teens is not the way for this team to improve long term.
 
Silver lining is that this was Maye's best game and made our offense look legit. They were only stopped by holding penalties by our OL, which should be correctable with proper coaching.

Defense is what it is. They aren't put in the best position to succeed. Richardson is basically a RB with a big arm who can't read defenses. It shouldn't have been that difficult to stop him.

The D was not "solid"... they were playing one of the worst QBs in the NFL... and he torched them on a game winning drive, they gave up 200 yards rushing... they were as "soft" as ever
 
Hey, Maye scored his career high points (when he played a full game)
*Should have scored at least 17 more points.
 
Offense shows up, defense no-shows. Defense shows up, offense no-shows.
The offense had one good drive. Let's not pretend they didn't go in the redzone like half a dozen times and get stopped.
