PostGame Thread Official Post-Game Thread: Patriots Lose to Commanders 20-17

[TheRazorsEdge]

We have to get to 2.
I’m settling on Michael Pennix and Quinn Ewers.
Where if that scenario pans out thinking Harrison and Ewers in the second?

Not sure if you watched the game today fam...

I'd be shocked if we aren't #1 overall.

I could have been offensive coordinator for Tom Brady.

“We played them all in all 4 quarters”. Lol

The grunts-and-snorts-per-answer was definitely trending up tonight

No idea why the Pats didn’t have a fire sale last week.

Probably had nothing worthwhile to offer other teams.

Not with Carolina, and Giants Existing.
We are 4th right now.

Uche reminds me of how Chandler Jones was handled (held back) and gets unleashed on their new team. Uche is seen mostly skipping around like Jones was.

If we are then there’s no way they’ll let BB anywhere near making that pick….right? Gulp.

Arizona needs to win another game maybe 2. They looked more inept today than we did.

Route running was atrocious. Troy brown cant be touched though.

I have questioned Troy as a coach for a while now. Obviously the fact that Thornton is brittle cannot be coached up (other than teaching him to protect himself from injuries as best as possible, but I don't think that is why Thornton has been constantly injured), but I still think most of his biggest issues (route running, running through routes, managing the sidelines) are all coachable things.

Douglas is not the best route runner either and runs a lot of of the wrong routes, but that can be hid because he is a player you get the ball to quickly and he can improvise after that.

When Troy said last year that he didn't think the fact the receiver were all bunched together on their routes wasn't an issue, I really started to question his coaching.

Does he need one?
Weis said he had a photographic memory and saw things develop that he didn’t see himself.

I'd agree with that but... You just never know my man! Alot of folks have started to voice the opinion that ownership is to blame for the current state of affairs.

Sure is going to be one of the more interesting offseasons in the last 20+ years!

I think we are a bottom 10 team but sadly we aren’t bad enough to be in the top 2.

Me: Wanna’ do a half back toss like I do in Madden?

Brady: I’m thinking we should do X, Y and Z, split their DBs and hit Gronk on a fade.

Me: Sounds good.

>PATS16N0 gets hired as Texans head coach in off season

They will once they get James Conner back

 

[Jlaff]

Absolutely not. I was never a Jimmy G fan.

You know what? I’ll bet you. You find a post where I said the Pats should let Brady go and start Jimmy G, I will leave this board forever. If you can’t, you leave the board forever. What do you say?

I will make the same offer to @PATS16N0

I didn't accuse, I asked whether it was accurate.

Also, you couldn't pay me to spend hours reading your posts.

 

[VJCPatriot]

Picking a OL in a top 3 pick situation is the kind of **** we're trying to get away from.

BB: We picked a guard with the #1 overall pick in the draft because we felt it gave us the best chance to win.
Press: But why did you pass on the top 2 franchise QB prospects available?
BB: We picked the player we felt gave us the best chance to win.

No idea why the Pats didn’t have a fire sale last week.

Even if the Pats were sellers last week, I doubt there would be a fire sale. It isn't how the trade deadline works. The only reason the Commanders did so well is because they traded two players who are studs when healthy going into their last years. The Patriots don't have that talent to trade away. Uche wouldn't get what those two offered. Bourne is on IR. And Dugger isn't going to draw that much either.

But Belichick doesn't have it in his DNA to admit the season is lost. He will try to win every game even if it is in the Patriots' best interest to lose. It was what made him great all those years with Brady. It is probably what is making him so awful now.

 

[Mack Herron]

I can’t find a good reason to turn on the game next week. The only thing to look forward to is development of a couple of young players. I hope Douglas and White can find a way to progress amidst this disaster of a season. What else is there to hope for?

 

[Love The Drake]

Chicago is out there and Giants look abysmmal.

Bill was excessively grumpy in the post-game press conference.
