Is Devin McCourty wearing a Curtis Martin jersey here?

I know that this was a trap game and all, but considering that this game is also essentially a first round playoff game, this is just tough to watch.

I wonder if not trying to get at least a FG with 54 seconds left in the first half came back to bite them....just maybe..

Pathetic performance, letting Fitzpatrick get 320 yards in the game, first time an opposing QB goes over 300 yards.

I was shocked they just pocketed 3 ****ing timeouts to end the 1st half. And then do nothing to start the 2nd half. The offense can't keep waiting until the 4th quarter to pick it up. If you think about it, that almost burnt them against Buffalo too.

Weren’t supposed to win last year, either. Or for our first. Or when we were down big to the Seahawks, Falcons, Ravens, or Jags in recent playoff games. Agree this doesn’t have the feel of a title season, but Pats are a tough kill that dies harder than Bruce Willis in the playoffs.

I don’t listen to the talking heads, but my understanding is that Cowherd a pretty solid Brady guy overall. As to his point, yes and no. This is not the best Pats team we have seen, and there are at least 5 other teams on the same general level — with a few more right there, and a tough playoff draw in front of us. We are so used to being the favorites that being pretty good seems like failure.

But we still have Brady and Belichick, and a team core with deeeeeeeep playoff experience on both sides of the ball. In a wide open year, with many very good but no great teams, people should chill with the obituaries and just let it ride.

I didn't see it but my dad told me he thought the Bills got jobbed by a really bad call that swung the game in the end.

No excuses for the Pats not to win this WC game. It's a 9-7 Titans team but they can run the ball and have a few nice pieces.

I got no real hopes after this weekend though unlike last year when I had the dream it was Pats/Rams months in advance. :lol:

It sucks though since even though I hate the Chiefs and Ravens I love Mahomes and Jackson. Such amazing young talents.

That dropped pick by the Titans just before the half might have saved the game.

I won't lie either, I still love Mike Vrabel. :love:

We'll see. Feel confident they pull it out, they always do. But it feels different. They don't score on this drive and the dynasty is over.

Pathetic offense.

To think we had Edelman,Gordon and Antonio Brown at one point as receivers this season.
