PostGame Thread OFFICIAL 2025 Week 16 Postgame Thread: Patriots Clinch Playoff Berth with 28-24 win over Ravens

[PatriotSpy]

That was the worst blown pass interference call since the saints/rams playoff game several years ago.

 

[manxman2601]

I know he has plenty but I think even I want Stefon Diggs' babies.

 

[ScottishPatriots]

Need to get some guys healed up fast, these 2 division games are so big.

At worst 2 seed with a chance at 1 and the bye or we're almost certainly on the road, can't afford to lay an egg again 2 poor opponents.

You deserve to get grudgeposted, just like I grudgeposted @PatsFan2 for months with the Henderson sucks post.

NAw. He made a **** play and he sucked.

It's not a opinion. It was a matter of fact.

Why does Drake hate being called an MVP LOL

Team game.

 

[Huckleberry1]

I would like to thank the Captain, Sam, FCB, Borg, and all the rest of the quitters for making this win soooooo much sweeter.

Ok that was a WILD game! I did not know how this one would unfold. But I was only 1 point off in my prediction of a 27-24 Patriots win.

I have to say that this team looked like it was crumbling in the 3rd quarter. But when it came to CRUNCH time in the 4th quarter everyone gave maximum effort and turned what could easily have been a tough road loss into a gusty road WIN.

I'm really proud of these players and how they overcame adversity to get this win. I was really ticked off when the refs failed to throw the flag on a very obvious pass interference.

But this team was unflappable. Led by Drake Maye they completed a crucial 4th down conversion to Diggs to keep the game alive before Stevens punched it in to take the lead for good.

Holding onto a 4 point lead our defense needed to step up in a pressure situation and boy did they deliver! Chaisson's punch out forced fumble gave the ball back to our offense in the closing minutes of the game.

The cherry on top was the fake out run by Drake Maye to get the last first down and end the game! Wow what an EPIC football game. You couldn't write a better script. Our Patriots overcame plenty of adversity on the road and came away with the win.

We have now made the playoffs! Next step is to beat the Jets and Dolphins to secure the Division title. LFG!!

Now remind yourself they’ll be getting Campbell, Milton Williams, and Spillane back soon.

The haters forget that so much they lost to a bills team with out them and had a come back against a ravens team that needed the win . They are going to be better. I just hope Henderson is not out long term as they were being safe

 

[Gumby]

NEXT WEEK!!!!!

Gotta love that Vrabel coaching.

 

[farn]

I worry a bit about Henderson.

 

[gatsby47]

Fine Job Gents Proud of you all

 

[DaBruinz]

Not sure how the they didn't call DPI on Humphrey on that play.

Thank god for Stevenson, Diggs and Maye. Chaisson solidified an extension tonight,

The injuries are going to need serious watching. Tonga, Farmer, Davis, Boutte, Douglas and Henderson.

We should see Campbell Milt Williams return this week.

 

[upstater1]

Great result and comeback. Maye showed me tonight that he can win in the 4th quarter. Something I have been asking for and he has not done until now.

Hope OL gets healthy quick.

How quickly we forget the final drive against the Bills.

20-20 tie.

Maye drove them 40 yards in 2 minute drill and we kicked the game winning FG with 15 seconds left.

 

[Jim Beankie]

Also, had the weirdest premonition - looked at KWill on the field and strongly thought, "he's gonna have a huge long play here." 2 plays later he had his TD. Eerie.

 

[TommyD4207]

NAw. He made a **** play and he sucked.

It's not a opinion. It was a matter of fact.

You said "he sucks" not "that play sucked". You deserve the grudgepost, even if that's not what you meant.

It's ok, you'll bounce back, you were here in the hard times.

 

[UrbanCowboy]

Steph Diggs: 9 for 138.

Kept the team in it when they were down 11.

Worth. Every. Penny.

And then some. You could also see him cheering the team on when it looked bleak.

 

[Ross12]

Playoffs secured

2 more wins for the division

2 more wins and 1 broncos loss for the 1 seeed!



Let’s gooooooo

I think if they win next week and the Bills lose to the Eagles, that can lock up the AFC East. But not 100% sure.

Edit: yeah it’d have to because NE would be 13-3 and Buffalo would be 11-5, so a 2 game gap with only 1 week left to play

 

[Ring 6]

Imagine spending your game day thread crying about all the negative commentary on the bad football and declaring your season satisfied instead of watching the game and enjoying a great comeback.

Weirdos all around us.

Imagine crying like a little *****

 

[A Defiant Goose]

I said it several times but that pi no call needs to be investigated holy ****

The RTP and non pass interference calls were incredibly bold and BS. And make no mistake they did the same to us last week on 4th and 5 holding Diggs. There is something up for sure. And if there isn't, too bad, they've ruined my confidence with all the gambling scandals lately

 

[DaBruinz]

I worry a bit about Henderson.

Need to get him the mouthguard that Light helped develop with that Dentist.
