Official Post Game Thread- Texans beat the Pats

[KDPPatsfan85]

If no playoffs, we might as well lose to get a higher draft pick. Cam is not the answer. Draft a QB with our first rounder.

1.)Well, it is time....

To Run The Table, BABY!!! Lfg!!

2.) That was a bad performance by the OL. Unable to open holes in the middle of the DL?!?!?

3.) Watt blocked 4 passes? How about not throwing in the vicinity of Watt?

4.) Harris was not being used enough on first down......

5.) Why the hell were we having trouble covering their TEs?!?!

The answers to all the questions is the Patriots are not a good football team.

We need some players upfront on the D line as well. Tackles.

 

[ScottishPatriots]

I have no idea why you would throw the ball so much against a putrid run defense, todays gameplan was hilariously bad.

 

[Tunescribe]

My personal conclusion: meh. Fake season/bridge year/dynasty intermission. The Pats will be back atop the AFCE in 2021.

 

[ensoul]

I'm honestly kind of surprised at how much of a hard time people are giving Newton. The defense was atrocious and the reason why they lost the game.

 

[NashuaPats]

I say start Stidham and find out if he has anything to offer. If he can even be a decent backup.

Cam is not our future.

Boy are you in for a rude awakening.

Because you're playing from behind and the Texans were pretty good at stopping the run.

 

[Mustangs84]

What happened to Cam running the ball? Teams are probably playing it a little differently now, but we barely see it anymore. If they're not going to take advantage of his running ability, they may as well go in a different direction.

They ran a lot on the first drive and it worked. Then they got cute.

 

[ensoul]

By the way the O-line was a joke which no one seems to be mentioning either.

 

[ScottishPatriots]

Because you're playing from behind and the Texans were pretty good at stopping the run.

The game was never out of hand enough to completely abandon the run and give Harris 11 carries.

 

[Patjew]

Secondary was awful.

McDaniels was awfuler.

 

[Run DMC]

This season was a no go before it even started. Because of Covid, Krafty Bob turned off the money spigot and said fugghedaboutit this year due to seriously decreased revenues. $1 milllion for sCam Newton tells you everything you need to know. This is a business, nothing more, nothing less. No need to get emotional about it. It is what it is.

 

[dinustef]

I am sad.
The worst part is that this is completely expected. This team is painfully limited on all three phases of the play.

The offense: It is what it is. We can run, but we abandoned it for whatever reason. We can't make a comeback late in the game. Failure 4/4. Seattle, Denver, Buffalo and now Houston. Cam decision making is not at the NFL level. Props to Byrd. Feel sorry for Rex.

The defense: It is not a good unit. We have no pass rush, we can't blitz, and our secondary is overated. A good QB will abuse it every time. Only positive is run defense.

Special teams: Folk and Bailey are good. Gunner...

Coaching: It's not popular to criticize BB, but I don't like what I see from coaching. Other teams are outcoaching us, and it is becoming a regular thing.

We are on to the rebuild.

 

[NYCPATS4LIFE]

Boy are you in for a rude awakening.

It’s gonna take a heck of an off-season for that to happen and this team needs help at WR, DT, and other positions. I hope they keep
Byrd.

 

[lancerman]

They sky is falling! No team can ever recover from 7-9. Only teams that win less than 5 games can ever make the playoffs again! Everybody knows this, BB should throw every game left.

Cognitive dissonance. We are in a rebuild. Whether people want to admit that or not is their problem. The question is how fast will this rebuild be.

These are the problems the team has in order.

1. QB. Easily the most important piece. Even a good team will lose more often than not without a real answer here.

2. WR/TE. We just had a historic defense and the GOAT QB (who regardless of what people want to believe) and the WR/TE issue was a serious hindrance that cost them down the stretch.

3. LB's We are just flat out weak here right now and Hightower is older and missing another year is a problem I don't see being fixed right away.

We also have depth issues in our offensive line and our secondary is aging. Gilmore is going to be further in his 30's and we probably will have contract issues with him, the McCourtey's are aging and not the same, Chung will be 34 next year and like Hightower just missed a season. We also could stand to find a new kicker if we are being totally honest.

So like yeah we will get better... someday. But we could have accellerated the process it what was essentially a lost year

Please share where you obtained your crystal ball, I'd like to put it on my Christmas wish list.
