Congrats to the team on the season.
Cheers to Ian & the board.

Its about the road .. and its on to the one in 2026.
It will be a tougher road to come back even with a stronger team .. but plenty opportunities to grow.

Draft & schedule will be tougher but FAs will now seek NE and hopefully FO makes the most of it.
 
Patriots scored more TDs on offense than Seattle did.

Think about that.
 
******* mcdaniels thought they were going to be able to run on first and second down and get to 3d and shorts with run/pass availability...but Stevenson ****ing sucks and Henderson is can only make plays when no one is near him. So frustrating because I ****ing knew mcdaniels would come out super conservative, just as they have all playoffs....playing to keep it close and not turn it over. It's super clear that mcdaniels does not trust Maye at all. This would've been a great time to go no huddle to start the game. Keep the defense from subbing. **** you mcdaniels. **** you **** you **** you
Again our offensive line is just…not good. It shows up in both the pass and run game. Stevenson is good and was again our best offensive player.
 
Players are going to want to play with him after this season.

Fingers crossed, we need an all time draft/FA for Maye. And I believe in this FO to do just that.
 
Question from this season "Is Maye over rated"?
He is not MVP that is for sure
He has a lot to learn.
 
IT WAS A GREAT YEAR THAT EXCEEDED ALL OF OUR EXPECTATIONS.

CONGRATS SEAHAWKS!

REMEMBER, BEFORE THERE WAS A 2001, THERE WAS A 1996. SB XXXI WAS A BIG PART OF THE STORY FOR THE CORE OF PATRIOTS LEGENDS THAT MADE UP THE HEART OF OUR DYNASTY. PERHAPS THE SAME WILL APPLY HERE.

WE WERE A YEAR EARLY...

ITS AWFULLY HARD FOR A 23 YEAR OLD QB TO THRIVE AGAINST THE BEST DEFENSIVE MINDS IN THE GAME. IT TOOK PEYTON MANNING A LONG TIME, MANY NEVER MAKE IT.

NOT SURE DRAKE HAS THE CEREBRAL TALENTS TO EVER BE LIKE BRADY....HE REMINDS ME MORE OF A YOUNG FAVRE BUT FAVRE WITH BRADY EXPECTATIONS. THATS TOUGH.

ITS BEEN A HELL OF A RIDE. NOW WE CAN ARGUE ABOUT MOCK DRAFTS. REALLY HOPING WE HAVE A GREAT DRAFT AND LAND TWO SOLID OT PROSPECTS.

HAVE A GREAT OFFSEASON EVERYONE...
 
Firstly Congratulations Seahawks and huge props for sam darnold to be the first QB from 2018 class to win a ring. Not baker, not Lamar, not Josh Allen but the much maligned sam darnold. What a Cinderella story. NFL is built for stories like these. Yes, we lost. But we lost to a better team.

On our side. It was a roller coaster ride and we got much more than we asked for. In the end it was not enough. Our roster was not built to compete and we just outperformed our collective might. Great memories and great fun this season. Yes, Maye played well during regular season and not much in postseason. But we did have some good luck along the way and that helped us to reach till super bowl . Maybe we were the panthers that lost to broncos .

As for next season I feel we might regress and possibly miss playoffs due to tough schedule and sophomore slump on many key players . We should look at the rebuild as a longer term one and not continue with patchwork changes we had this year . Better to make changes one year early . I don't think this same team can compete next year.

Leave apart onwenu we might need a change at all oline positions.

I think we continue to invest in Campbell as LT . I feel his knee injury made him play worse than what he originally plays and I noticed that he was so easy to push back by all edge rushers, even ones who were slightly less heavier than him.

Wilson is not a LG and should be moved to center . Bradberry is not the answer. Similarly we might need to move away from diggs and Henry . Next season they might not offer much and will probably go down in performance too . We might need to bid for Alex pierce . We should just draft / sign couple of blocking tall tight ends.

Just draft BPA for first 3 rounds. We have gaps at all positions.

2025 rookie grade - borregales and woodson look like studs.

Henderson and ponder - b+

All others need improvement.

But a decent draft .


Gonzo is a stud . Pay the man.. I am sorry gonzo. I too doubted you..

He has no one on offense and I'm tired of pretending like these tier 3 guys are enough.

They need legit WR help and clearly they're gonna need better TE to help with how bad this oline was.
 
I’m prepped for some brain rot takes on here about Maye that will be incredibly unfair. But is what it is.

Ultimately this team was way ahead of schedule to even be here. Gonna choose to enjoy this year for what it was and know there’s a ton of room for growth this offseason.
 
Way too conservative on offense. **** mcdaniels. Mcdaniels is a ****ing terrible OC unless he has a run game. Mcdaniels had no answer for Seattle's blitzing. It was a pathetic display. Embarrassment. Complete and utter belt to ass embarrassment. Maye exposed in the playoffs. They really got lucky in the playoffs. Nix injured , Schultz and Nico Collins Out, and Sam diegos oline all hurt.

Here's looking forward to the offseason with no game-related threads for you to soil.
 
He got bored of shi.ting on Brady so he’s gonna s.hit on Maye now too.
Well he pledged on his honor to leave if the Patriots made the playoffs. He weaseled that into when they are finished with the season and isn’t honoring that either. I think he has no honor
 
I've said it time and time again. Look up the play by plays...when Maye plays great he throws on early downs and gets into a rhythm. All ****ing playoffs he was a run first OC when regular season they threw way more on first down.
