Official Post Game Thread- Titans beat the Pats

[TomPatriot]

Loss is on the offense. 13 points at home. The receivers are trash

The worst receiver on the field tonight was A. J. Brown, who everyone seems to love.

 

[Kontradiction]

Bill looks like he’s holding back tears in the postgame presser.

 

[Deus Irae]

Terrible performance. Only Bailey played well. Henry destroyed us.

Only Bailey played well? Are you high?

 

[n1997y]

Good season. Let’s reload and do it again next season.

Nah, let’s reload and do better next season.

 

[SBLIII]

Hell of a run.

But I think this is all over. I think almost everyone is gone including TB.

 

[TheRainMaker]

The Homers would disagree.

Biggest bust of the draft.

 

[NYCPATS4LIFE]

Did Tom really go 5-17 in the 2nd 1/2?

Sheesh

Yes i wanna see a breakdown of this game. Also sanu and harry averaged their one to 3 catches per game.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Bill's doing his Presser - what a treat..

Painful

I dont think the punt was too bad. it was a 1 pt game. jules makes that catch, we dont have that discussion. The frustrating thing is we lost by 1 pt most of the way until the pick 6. Couldnt muster a FG in a half. Wouldve been fine if the titans ran all over us in the 2nd half.
The RZ offense from the 1 is the difference in the game. We get a TD there, force titans to throw more, things couldve changed.

Kind of went the way I expected. I figured Henry would be a beast to stop and he was. Game was winnable but a couple of drives ended with bad execution, mainly the first and goal and the edelman drop at 3:21. Hats off to Henry, he was the only thing besides the punter that did anything worth while and thats all they needed.

As far as the future of this team I have no idea what’s going to happen. Either way, the season is over and we’re on to 2020. 6 Super Bowls was a incredible accomplishment beyond my wildest dreams. I’ll let the mediots and haters have their fun but honestly I’m just going to reflect on the last 20 years of being a fan and how fortunate we’ve been to watch this team.

 

[upstater]

If I calculated correctly, I believe the Pats will pick 24th if there are no upsets tomorrow...

I think they only reseed they 4 finalists

 

[dtbrks]

I’m sad to think the dynasty is over.
I hope not but I fear it is. And I’m mad

 

[Blizzard]

Offense just lacked talent. This is easily the worst pats offense ive ever seen. Even the 06 and 13 offenses could put up points when needed, 2013 especially.

 

[sambam94]

a great D gets constant pressure, especially on 3rd downs. This D was great the first half of the year. The last half the pressure just wasn't there. It was evident tonight on a few key plays.

 

[Delicate Genius]

Tom is speaking.

 

[MoreBellhorn]

Really, really hard to say this but it’s time to move on from Brady. My first born will be named after him and I will always appreciate what he has done. It’s just time. Edelman isn’t getting younger or any more durable. Let’s either roll with Stidham and rebuild around him or go with a bridge year with Fitz. Either one I’m okay with.

 

[Observer]

Brady should retire. Haven’t signed any good receivers since Gronkowski and Edelman. I don’t see how that trend changes.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

On one hand it’s comforting to lose early and not have to worry about ‘what if’. On the other hand i love having more playoff games to look foreward to. But the sad reality is it just wasn’t our year. Offense had all year to find an identity thanks to our defense and they couldn’t do it. Blown opportunities and sloppy crap all over, when Edelman is dropping stuff you know were destined for failure.

I believe we should have went for it on 4th and 6 on the last real possession. Either way, they get 1 first down and its over. At least you give it one last shot. To me it was like the end of the 2013 saints game. Just go for it and if you dont make it, you potentially might just need a td instead of a fg.

Not even gonna speculate on whether this is the end. Sure looks like it, but the team has been known to defy odds. Things looked similarly bad after 2009 and we hit the 2010 draft out the park. If they can do that and keep brady around. We’ll see...

 

[Dr Pain]

We sound like Peyton Manning fans at the end who couldn't accept it was over either.

He's obviously injured but he's also going to be 43 years old playing in the NFL and is also going to be beat up again next year, and the year after.

How can you assume he will be healthy next year?

The only way he can be effective is probably going to be if you sit him half the year. He may be best suited by sitting and then mid season next year pick a good team that needs a QB. If it were a 6 game season, Brady would be my choice.

 

[TomPatriot]

We need to trade a few vets to get some picks back.

I think they have twelve picks in the 2020 draft.
