They still got the ball back for the alleged MVP candidate and boy wonder offense coordinator to fashion an 83 yard game winning drive with 2:23 on the clock, 2 time outs, and the two minute warning. They couldn't even get one first down
If they didn’t give up 5 TD drives in a row they wouldn’t have put the team in a position to need to score 36 to win.
 
Watching Denver, Houston lately, Buffalo today...I hope the Pats can just win a playoff game. If they go in and get blasted the first playoff game it may do harm than good long term.
 
No fan base enjoys watching the wheels come off.
There is a difference between not enjoying the wheels come off and having the executive function of a kindergartener who missed his nap time.
 
No one's talking about "tight" games. The fact is Drake Maye has never led his team back from a 4th quarter deficit in his NFL career....something most of his contemporaries have done by this time in their careers. Does it mean he sucks? No. Does it mean he's a front runner? Perhaps. Until Drake Maye leads his team on a 4th quarter game winning drive, he shows no clutch gene
My counter is that most of his contemporaries have not put themselves in position to have the lead going into the fourth quarter game in and game out. Most of those same contemporaries have superior weapons that have played major roles in the comebacks that you cite. Henry's drop on the late third down play had a major impact today and stopped a potential comeback drive. As great as Allen was today, James Cook was at least as impactful in their win.

If the team cannot win in the fourth quarter when the new Edelman, Gronk, Amendola, James White, Branch, Faulk, etc. are on the team I will share your concern. Until then I am not concerned about Maye's ability to win.

That’s right you were the guy who said it was Brady’s fault we lost SB 52 when he got the ball with 2:22 left down 5 and couldn’t even muster a first down before fumbling it away. Right?

It's weird to me how you'll gift a throne to Spags and his defense in one take, then look at today and walk away with this idea that it was Maye who was the issue.

The issue today was the defense. The offense scored 31 points. We won 10 games by scoring 23.

Maye can't do **** if things aren't lining up in that last drive.
 
The offense scored 7 points and had 47 passing yards the second half
Quick, which is more likely to lose you games? Scoring 7 points per half or allowing 28 per half?
 
Uhhh. Did you notice the score at all? We played well in the first half. They played a little better in the second. How is that a "brutal beatdown"? Ridiculous.
They played a lot better in the second half. The defense had three missions. Stop Cooks run game, keep Allen in the pocket, don't let the TE's beat you. Did it in the first half, not in the second. Next week, stop Henry, keep Jackson in the pocket, don't let the TE's beat.
 
So THAT is what you call shorting himself?
Honestly, I don’t know why you’re still arguing with him. It’s been obvious all year he hates this team, the QB, the coaches, and lord knows what else. He loves Nix and the Broncos…..he’s a D- Troll.

Don't waste your time with ****head, he did this crap all the way through the dynasty years. He makes the Captain look like an optimist. He's been waiting all season to drop a load on Drake Maye.

How many games have they “got blasted” in?
