PostGame Thread 2024 OFFICIAL WEEK 17 POST GAME THREAD: Patriots lose 40-7

[Grogan14]

If Kraft is really sure Mayo will be back next year he should come out this week and say so definitively to support his coach.
If he does not I must assume its not a sure thing.

 

[The Gr8est]

Yes but Pats do not have to hire first timers at this time

They just did, and an unqualified first timer without a resume of any significance.

All first timers are not equal.

 

[The Gr8est]

I thought I remember hearing something that Caley was mad with how things were going while he was in NE and bolted for LV with McDaniels. I think that bridge is burned.

Maybe some people don’t want to work for the Krafts?

 

[PapaTrips]

Yes Ross perhaps it's personal. What you can't see is the post they removed earliar during the Bengals game when they refrenced me as a rookie on my posting info. block. I'm to old to deal with this crap.. Perhaps another time my friend

 

[The Gr8est]

If I were Maye, I’d have a meeting with Bob immediately and tell him they need to get a better coaching and FO staff or I’m asking to be traded.

The fact that Drake wouldn’t say something like this, YET, is a testament to his qualities as a leader.

“Rookie” means you are a new poster, that’s all.

 

[TommyD4207]

Wallace as well please.

Why? He sucks. So does Robinson. They can't play. And Onwenu is straddling that line.

 

[The Gr8est]

If Kraft doesn’t fire Mayo and Wolf, I’m on indefinite hiatus from this ****-show. Losing I can take, willful losing out of tribal loyalty I cannot.

I don’t even think it will take an active decision not to watch.

People will just organically find other things to do.

Except for the possibility of this game helping to grease the skids on Mayo’s ouster, it wasn’t interesting in the least.

 

[The Gr8est]

I've gone back and forth on this.

Like, after last year, Belichick really did have to go - it was clear the train had hit the end of the track, and there was nothing really left there - too many issues between him and ownership.

Now, the thing is, you should have done an actual rebuild, instead of 'Fire Bill and we'll be fine', which is what they did. And a QB fell into your lap, and you've wasted a year of him.

I don't think this team goes anywhere with Belichick as the coach this year - but I feel like with the weaker schedule, they could have at least been more competitive. But is that worth keeping him? I dunno.

So was BB the bigger problem, or the Krafts?

So was BB the bigger problem, or the Krafts?

Considering they're sitting on 50 million in cap space, and after the 'Dynasty' hit-job, I'd say that answer's pretty obvious.

You’re not from the South, are you? I’m not either. But after the Army I have a good idea.

A good ole boy like Maye sticks it out and keeps his teeth together.

But when he looks at the starting tackles this game—VDLowe and Sandy pants Jacobs—must make him mad. They are ruinously bad.

We don't Know What Wallace Is yet bruh. today was his first active day.
Did you see anything destructive?

More athletes need to take this more seriously. They have worked their whole lives to get where they are, but are set up for failure going to a bad/dysfunctional franchise. There are countless tales of top prospects coming out of the draft, only going to disastrous situations where it ends up ruining them.

Not unexplainable. Due to really really bad GMing.

 

[State]

I bet Robert needs more blue pills than normal for tonight’s escapade with his much younger wife. His football franchise is in free fall disarray.

It’s distracting.

Dude I’m a moderator, I am “they”, I can see if something has been blocked/banned/deleted - nothing has been. Sounds like user error. If you want to send some screenshots or a deeper description of the issues you’re having in a private message to me or Ian another mod then please feel free. Otherwise we will likely start restricting any further messages about this in this thread going forward.

He looks the part. Super long arms. But his lateral movement skills are subpar.

Just not a sufficient athlete. Bring back Conor McDermott!
