Game Day Thread Official Post Game Thread- Raiders beat the Pats

[Dingleberry]

Mac probably made a noise that sounded like something between a whimper and a squeek when he got hit

I think I heard a queef.

Congratulations, we are officially the New England Jets

Get a new OC, trade Mac Jones or have a legit open competition in training camp that I am confident Bailey Zappe will win, and bring aboard OTs. Then good can come from the Patricia clown show.

No wonder my Detroit buddies, mild mannered guys all, grew to detest Phat Matt.

I Bill making Matt the OC was the beginning of the end for Bill as a HC and the same for Mac as a QB. Bill ended two careers his own and Macs with that hire.

When people say "Mac sucks bring in Zappe", it's code for "the team isn't doing well and I don't know football enough to see everything wrong with the team, so I'm going to blame the QB and pretend the other guy is a savior".

There was a not so small vocal minority here in 2019 screaming that Brady was the cause of all are problems and that he was done and it was time to move on. Many of these are the same people. They were also the same people that were screaming for Stidham.

There's so much more beyond Mac that it's stupid

-Agholor and Thorton not making plays basic NFL receivers should make
-Patricia's extremely terrible play calling
-Screwing up a drive on the one by total coaching ineptitude.
-giving the Raiders the sideline on that final drive so they had time
-Multiple big chunk burn plays being conceded at the start and end of the game
-a lack of situational awareness from players, specifically in regards to that final play.

I get people are mad, but there is so much wrong with this team beyond Jones that leads to losses like this. If we score when we are on the 1... when Jones got the TD twice, where are stupid coaches screwed us out of one and are TE who has zero awareness screwed us out of another, that's game. If Agholor or Thorton make two catches any WR2 can make... that's field goal range and probably the game. If we took away the sideline on the last drive, the Raiders probably do not pull that off (bad call aside).

Honestly, I'm mad. I should just mute all the "Mac sucks bring in Zappe" people when they post. It's never worth it to argue with those people.

Btw, Mac was really bad in this game. He's even mediocre and they win the game.

Mac got two TD's that should have won the game. He made two more throws that would have put them in FG range which would have won the game.

He did enough to win that game. Even if you ignore all that, and just watch the game.... at worst he made the big pass that set up the go ahead TD and the defense **** the bed and he got screwed.

If you can go through 4 individual game changing plays the QB got hosed on by his coaches or teammates and all 4 would have won the game... and the QB should have had the game won without them... you can't blame the QB. Carr deserved to win less.

This loss sums up the team's attitude and fire. There is none and there is no leadership. They are all freelancing and blaming coaches when they arent even doing a half perfect job of executing plays.

The coaches DESERVE blame for this spiraling crap show. I'd say 90 percent of it.

I know how they feel. This guy has to go.

1 - It was so stupid for Meyers to throw that
2 - Mac could have, and should have, grabbed Jones leg and hung on with all his might.
3 - we would have lost in OT anyway, and everyone knew it.
4 - even if we hung on to beat a horrible Raiders team, we're clearly loosing the final 3 games and missing the playoffs

I just don't like this team in general and I use the term team loosely.

Patriots most likely out of the playoffs. If they win all 3 of their next games, they're in, but that's not very likely. If they beat Miami + one of their other two games and Miami loses another game, they're in. That's not crazy unlikely, but I wouldn't count on it.

 

[QuantumMechanic]

The thing that's most disappointing to me about this season is how earthshatteringly stupid everyone plays.

Used to be that even the scrubs, even the ones with little talent, at least played smart. But now even the starters play like total idiots.

And that's 100% on the coaches. Very disappointing. Is Bill like "eff it -- I'll just phone it in and hang out here long enough to pass Shula"? Normally I'd say no way on earth. But with as dumb as this team plays I have to wonder...

 

[cmasspatsfan]

Bump.

Jacobi already admitted it, no way the coaches called that, the players should be coached better not to be that stupid.

Bambino Jones does suck.

 

[SVN]

firstly why is mondre not going down and flipping it to meyers?

 

[FCB02062]

post game it sounds like these players, Andrews and Jones so far, have a serious lack of belief in the coaches and Belichick

 

[slash83]

I’ve been saying this is one of the dumbest teams I’ve ever seen for weeks now, and it rightfully comes down to the HC.

 

[aluminum seats]

Sure but to focus on Mac not tackling Jones is dumb and pathetic

I didn't say anything about Mac not tackling Jones

 

[dannydyn]

Let's tank

 

[Froob]

Only the same group of people that call for him to be cut/benched/traded every other post

we should start scouting college QBs that are exceptional open field tacklers

Cam makes that tackle
