That is a riot. Pats finished 3-5 on the road and the only good team they beat was the bears.
Don’t see the humor. The afc is wide open this year.

Prime Tom could probably carry this offense. 41 year old Tom can not
Josh likes his passing game.Yup, they were. When Michel started ripping some big runs on the 1st half drive that ended on the Brown holding call I was thinking the runs working, we gotta come back to it next drive and use play action off it. We didn’t come back to it until the 4th qtr. No idea why.
Coaches have a big responsibility in this loss. We don’t have the receivers to stretch the field this year so it leaves a safety to double Gronk. Last year Cooks took that safety with him down the field and opened things up underneath.
The O this year has worked best when we run the ball and set up play action. Sony Michel avg 4.5 yds but only had 13 carries. Burkhead avg 6 yds but only 4 carries. That’s on Bill and Josh. Should have been runs to bring the safeties up and then get more 1 on 1 coverage for Brady to take advantage of. Instead we went pass happy, let them bring their rush, and have Gronk and others face double coverage.
I think James white makes the offense much better and they barely used him until the last drive.
crucial 3rd down drop from jules and gordon and **** passes by TB.
This was the worst officiated game all season
If you think putting up 33 points, 358 yards, 3 touchdowns and 0 picks is average then you're a ****ing idiot, plain and simple.
If they want to split carries with Michel and burk fine but white and Gordon need to be getting more touches.
Jackson...and instead of Ray rice going for an 80 yard td on first play it'll be Lamar JacksonWhich qb are we facing? Jackson?
Agree but seasoned, battle tested road warriors don't commit 14 f-ing penalties.
Unacceptable
Lose out, have MIA win out (that will give MIA the division), and have any one of the whatever-and-6 teams make it to 10 wins.How do the Patriots miss the playoffs?
Why target Gordon past the first down mark when you can draw up a designed 3rd and 6+ play where another player is expected to catch the ball around the line of scrimmage and make guys miss to get to the sticks?
Ok then you have strange expectations.
I miss big ole Alan Branch.
He wasn’t great, but I see how important having competence at that position is now.
