Game Day Thread Official Game Day Thread Week 15 - Pats @ Steelers

Time to put a lock on this thread.

Brady sailing passes and throwing off his back foot with no one anywhere near him with the game on the line. He's done.

Stfu

 

[Whitt25]

This team is not sniffing anything close to the super bowl.

I still hold on to the fact that 90s Bills were the last Super Bowl losers to ever return the following season, so it wouldn't surprise me if we didn't.

 

[CISGS]

They’ve been decent lately. Listen, they allowed 17 points and the team had 14 penalties - mostly on O... that’s insane

Bruh. They had a 3rd string bum slicing it for over 120 yards.

 

[CISGS]

Brady is playing scared. He had no business coming for another season.

This ain’t it chief.

 

[Ladypatsfan]

Even if they make it to the play offs I hope they lose. They are a flawed team.
Brady has reached the cliff and is slowly descending. The talent on this team is questionable.

 

[PittPatriot]

Defense has give up 14.

Exactly. I was not clear in my statements. I’m saying that the defense came up great today just like special teams last week. This offense is killing us.

 

[dannydyn]

Too bad, because this team is loaded on offense. Gronk is good as retired Edelman isn't getting any younger, Hogan is as good as gone, etc.

I can't envision the roster getting any better than this, next year.

 

[mosslost]

"these teams could meet again" as if NE is gonna **** around and win a road playoff game hahahaha

They could be the wildcard team at Gillette

 

[A Defiant Goose]

They could be the wildcard team at Gillette

Oh yeah guess you're right

D took Brown and Ben out of this game

 

[Silver Blue&Red]

14 penalties. 7 false starts. Bad football being played.

Yes, Yes, Yes,

This team hasn't played great, but the stupid mistakes are HUUUUGE!!

I know ppl don't like the ref excuse. And I agree.
But damn, it was swayed one way the last few weeks.

It is boneheaded mistakes, but there were incidental touches and ticky tacky calls, and other blatant penalties not called elsewhere.

Whatever, IIWII.

The good thing is, I'm not angry (at the team) anymore. LOL.

 

[supafly]

Just because nothing happened doesn't mean that the Pats didn't try.

Well, again, with having 6 picks in the first 100 selections, it’s reasonable to wonder if it may have been worth overpaying for a position of such obvious need.

Hell, there’s still a chance they’ll bring in some jag off the streets in the next week or two.

 

[Quest4SevenHomie]

Edelman and Gronk are washed up. Amendola would be caught every single of those passes. He was worth whatever price. God, I miss him.

Draft defense and use $ in FA for offense....except maybe a QB ..... Clayton Thorson in rounds 2 or 3

Amendola dropped a pass right in his hands on the 2 yard line today that would have put the Dolphins right in the game, Stop it. We're all pissed and disappointed. I love Danny. But ,he wouldn't make any difference on this team right now.

Amendola ALWAYS came up huge for us on 3rd and 4th downs. Always was clutch and just overall tough.

Unless Gronk and Edelman miraculously redeem themselves in the playoffs, they're about as washed up as can be. Gronk hasn't been the same since he wasn't allowed to be treated by Guerrero anymore.

He's been on the decline since after the Super Bowl. I remember when he would maul defenders in his path. All those talks about him wanting to join pro wrestling look more and more like they were true.

This thread is getting funny.

You're sidestepping the very issue you brought up. Danny Amendola was an extraordinary clutch receiver while here. He isn't anymore. He's now extraordinarily overpaid. We get it. You're frustrated as we all are. Danny would not have helped one iota today. This Pats team is a good team. Not great, not ever making it to the SB this year. My prediction is a home win on wild card weekend, then a road loss and bye bye. The team will be rebuilt in the off season and be a SB contender next year, assuming reasonable health. Not this season.

Some people need to look at the ‘68-69 Celtics. Does not always happen that way, but it can. And that was a very veteran team putting in one last run - similar to what might happen here - hopefully.
