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

[TommyD4207]

Great win by the Pats. Overcoming the refs and the blatant PI on Humphrey was criminal. I don't care that it was a win against Huntley. I have no sympathy for other teams injuries. Let's win the next two games and have a shot at the #1 seed.

Also, why did Mike Tirico announce the Ravens as "Super Bowl Champions" when running out of the tunnel? Then calling Maye's TD or two point conversion a "moon ball"? He always saying weird ****.

Mike ChatGPTirico.

You should hear him call a basketball game. It's like it's narrated by Gemini.

Pats are BEAT TO ****. Hopefully most of the injuries are short term.

If they manage to get the bye and come to as close to full health as possible, I think they're representing the AFC. These next 2 games are basically playoff games

 

[A.C Vegas]

Sorry. Not my comment. Got it from the GDT

Well make sure you tell us who said it so we can shun them like they deserve

Anybody know if Boutte is ok?? Pop was hurt too.

It looked like Boutte was probably concussed.

We may not have enough healthy players to field a team against the Jetes and Phins.

 

[festy1986]

Owning it with a simple "Mea culpa, heat of the moment, it happens to the best of us" instead of all the defensive dbaggery would also have been a way to go there but hey, you do you

Owning what?

He sucked when I said it.

If you're gonna tell me he didn't then you should own it.

I regret nothing. He's fumbling the ball left and right. Throwing interceptions, dropping handoffs.

I said he sucked when he sucked. I said he was making amazing throws when he was throwing darts.

I know nuaunce is hard for some of you but try and take a deep breath and live in reality with the rest of us.

 

[Silver Blue&Red]

Good win. Good night, everyone. I gotta get up for work in 4-1/2 hours. Uhggg.... But worth it. LFG!!!

His other recent gem was when he was calling the Rams game in LA and randomly pointed out they were near LAX airport before going to commercial break. The comment had absolutely no context.

He never had full control that was not the problem with that play. The fact that he got tackled and still almost caught it and would have if the defender Didn't swat it away it impressive

Funny thing is how the defender very non-chalantly swatted it away, like he wasn’t really trying to go for the ball even though it was a prime chance for an INT off the ricochet. He was smiling as he did it, with an expression that said “****, I am getting flagged bad on this one”. He didn’t even attempt to grab the ball because he KNEW even if he did, the penalty would wipe it away anyway. But somehow, there was no flag.

 

[festy1986]

you’re the one who said you’re done with the HC and the QB.

This is incorrect.

As for Vrabel. He wants to make dumb **** fake punt attempts and be a smug prick about it then he's gonna get called out on it.

Nice try though.

 

[n1997y]

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

It was an all-time classic.

 

[Lavictoire]

my wife hears my screaming cheers and moans penetrate the walls she knows how the game is going.

 

[manxman2601]

In college it was the easy ones he’d drop

He only had 5 drops in his final year. Not the best but the same as Egbuka and less than Tet. The knock on him was that he didn't run a pro route tree but the athleticism and his ability to beat press coverage made him worthy f the pick in my mind.

 

[Lambeau12]

Congratulations on a gritty win.

 

[Ring 6]

Vrabel said Jennings played DT at the end

 

[TommyD4207]

It was an all-time classic.

It's a top-20 nominee.

 

[Sect140]

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

I hope so on Spillane, didn’t like how he was dressed for the Buffalo game and would play in an emergency but shows up Wednesday practice in a walking boot.

 

[TommyD4207]

Vrabel said Jennings played DT at the end

He did, he had to, Durden went down at one point, and Tonga was already out.

 

[Lavictoire]

You just know the refs are ending someones season in January, i still have no idea how they missed that PI.

Some of the things they miss is so incompetent they have to be corrupt that was the most PI that ever did PI, he's tackled in mid air before the ball is nearly there.

Look at this lol, the ball isn't even in the shot yet.

and the pats overcame the corrupt NFL and refs . you have to outplay them.keep it close and you make it easy for them.

His other recent gem was when he was calling the Rams game in LA and randomly pointed out they were near LAX airport before going to commercial break. The comment had absolutely no context.

sounds like Romo earlier in the Detroit/Pitt game where the Lions were trying to come back down 5 with about a minute left and Romo just randomly says “Well, I don’t think we’re going to be seeing a tie today, Jim! For the first time, ever!”

No **** Romo, the Lions don’t have a 5 point play. And what exactly makes that “the first time ever? The first time an NFLgame hasn’t ended in a tie? Ever?

The refs have been making soo many bad calls/non calls. Take some Vyvanse. Focus.
