PostGame Thread 2023 Week 2: Patriots Lose to Dolphins 24-17

[Ian]

Tough finish. Discuss it here.

 

[XLIX]

I don't understand why they didn't spot the ball and then measure. It was certainly close enough.

 

[Ross12]

So much for "irrefutable evidence" to overturn. These days it is "who the league would rather win the game."

 

[203Pat]

Heads up play for a Pedo Stater. We got hosed on that call.

 

[State]

With a competent set of OTs, we do much better.

I'm in shock that they overturned that.

Based on the earlier lack of overturning of what was obviously a Rham first down

If Strange was short, he was mm short. You can't overturn that

Hopw can you have 2 totally different calls?

I'm in shock

That sucks. I thought he had the 1st down.

Good game.

 

[Ross12]

Absolute ******** overturn at the end. No idea how they could reverse that. No guarantee the Pats would go on to score, but it's ridiculous that they did not even get the opportunity.

I didn’t think they had 100% evidence to overturn the call….

Either way, the team needs to stop putting themselves in early holes.

 

[lancerman]

The main problem with this game... Bill Belichick. Team is undisciplined and makes key errors in big moments and they lack the talent to overcome top NFL squads. Both rest on his shoulders.

 

[ahmed]

A dollar short and a day late again!

At least we don't need to worry about losing to Jets so 2 wins there.

Mac again fails to get a game winning drive.

 

[Sam Bam Cunningham]

The team is what we thought they would be. Right now in last place in the division.
Next week at the Jets will be tough. 0-3 is a real possibility here.

 

[yukon cornelius]

On a positive note, the mute function works well

 

[Chevy]

So - haven't reviewed the GDT, but I'll take a shot:

-Mac sucks and he is to blame
-BB the GM screwed us over
-The season is over
-Is not! Is too! Is not! Is too!
-We need to just tank for (Insert Flavor of the Month here)

Close?

11 negative plays...4 sacks, SEVEN tackles for loss....this is not an NFL offense for millionth time...how are people so f#cking blind not to see this?

 

[State]

Barmore did what tonight? On the radio, Zo ragged on Godchaux a number of times. It was deserved. Big contract and didn’t make plays tonight.

I saw other calls on Sunday that were more obvious that were ruled not enough to overturn. I would say, that play certainly would fall into that category.

And the fact they didn’t even measure. It was irrefutable to them

Wish we would have signed Ginkel.
He ruined us.
