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

[Real fan 02]

Love the way Hollins plucks the Football out of the.air. We have to get a 6'2 and up WR with excellent catch radius in the upcoming Draft. Isaac TeSLaa is playing a similar role for the Lions.

Hollins is going to match or surpass his best season he's been a key cog in the offense. This offense lost Henderson to concussion and rally to come back.. they are battle tested.

Let's give it up to Rham he made some excellent blocks last night Constantly Stoning Blitzers. I know we might like a runner without the occasional Fumble Issues but Rham can catch and also Block. I think McDaniels values Rham's Blocking and Catching attributes more than we do.

They've come a long way from ****ing Mayo

This sentence makes me chuckle on multiple fronts. Including the suggestion that ‘they’ were in an intimate relationship with the former linebacker.

 

[farn]

Him and Mack Hollins, culture changers.

Hollins. Very very much an underrated signing. He’s been a blessing in blocking & key receiving.

 

[farn]

Would be the first WR with that statline here since Edelman.

Imagine JE11 w Maye. Drake would love that guy.

You cry babies happy now??

-300 yard game
-Comeback win in the 4th vs a “great team” on the road
-With multiple OL/skill position injuries
-Clinched playoff berth



…..Of course you aren’t…

Maye did not have a 4qcb or a 300 yd game.

Some of us cant be Homers and brag about the Pats QB with little to show. Also, cant sit quietly by while other NE fans run around claiming its Pats Dynasty 2.0 without your QB achieving what other great QBs have accomplished before him.

Its no prize to have a Cowboy who is nothing but all hat. That's just the way it is.

Maye answered the bell last night. 2025 will be his first winning season and no doubt Pro Bowl invite. Not as a Corky Mac alternate welcome either. There is still much to prove like a playoff win. Even better a post-season win vs a no joke team like the Texans.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

They sure as hell were on that TD catch….amazing

And the one against the giants. Both catches were insane!

 

[PP2]

Easily the best win of the year and the most satisfying. Away game, hostile stadium, playoff intensity, overcoming adversity, injuries, and coming back from behind, and on national TV. This team has got to be feeling good about itself and has become even more confident.

Eliminating Baltimore from the playoffs is the chef's kiss.

 

[One-If-By-Sea]

I think McDaniels values Rham's Blocking and Catching attributes more than we do.

Who is "we"?

 

[KamikazeKnight]

As much as we **** on the defense, this is two weeks in a row they got a stop in a gotta have it situation and got the ball back for the offense with legit time to go down and win the game. Kudos to the mostly Swiss cheese D, they made a play when they had to and then put the icing on the cake w a forced fumble and recovery

The guy who was destroying our defense wasn't even playing during that time. I'd pump the brakes on the praise for this one.

4th quarter is when I saw the Drake Maye I believe in for the first time in several weeks. It was good to seem him again.

Whatever

 

[TomPatriot]

Great win! I imagine the GDT was epic in many ways..

The agony and the ecstasy, as usual.

 

[Triumph]

For the last 2 games should the Pats brass move Marcus Jones over to RB?

Hendo could be sidelined for a few games.

The Jets would be clowns to try and win and lose draft position. Tua is benched and likely played his last game for Miami if they can find a sucker to take him. The Raiders and Giants are fighting for 1st pick. I bet Brady wants Mendoza, but would the Giants dump Dart and take Mendoza?

 

[Huckleberry1]

Drake "2021 Mac Jones" Maye btw

What a horrible post.

 

[Patsfanin Philly]

**** the refs.

Holy **** they were so ****ing terrible, it felt like the fix was in.

Since the Pats won, the league will admit there should have been a penalty on the Boutte mugging. Had they lost, they would have stonewalled, par for the course.

 

[Huckleberry1]

This is why I recommended @Sam Bam Cunningham put all his pre-written bullet points in one post instead of spreading them out one post at a time.

Think of how many he still has!

Sam was openly rooting for them to fail. All pretense of him being a fan of this team is gone, he simply can't take their success.

 

[Huckleberry1]

Williams stepping in when Pop and Boutte went down can't be understated either.

That was a great throw and a great catch.

Let's give it up to Rham he made some excellent blocks last night Constantly Stoning Blitzers. I know we might like a runner without the occasional Fumble Issues but Rham can catch and also Block. I think McDaniels values Rham's Blocking and Catching attributes more than we do.

Yeah meant to post this last night. He picked up some rushers and stopped them dead in their tracks.

The guy who was destroying our defense wasn't even playing during that time. I'd pump the brakes on the praise for this one.

No Williams, no Spillane, Tonga and farmer went down.. guys gutting it out playing through injuries... none of us should have expected the defense to be able to contain Baltimore I know i didn't the game had to be won on offense. Flowers is a bad match up for Gonzo.. Marcus should had been on him all game.

 

[A Defiant Goose]

What a horrible post.

I dont actually think that but in the first 15 pages people were really likening the two QBs and the two seasons
