Patriots/NFL 2023 Regular Season Part 2: Patriots officially eliminated from playoffs

[BernieMcAvoy]

I actually heard RJ Bell talk about this before that sometimes bad QB play can lead to more points than expected because of pick 6s/turnovers that set other teams up.

Makes sense. I just thought both offenses are so bad that it wouldn't matter unless there was at least two defensive touchdowns. Not even halftime and the over hits

Well this hurts the tank

 

[Johnnyduke]

This Steelers crowd is RELENTLESS

 

[Oates2Neely]

Trubisky’s accuracy is just off

 

[JoeIsAStud]

Trubisky’s accuracy is just off

He is a really shitty QB. And somehow he is collecting 7.5 million to be a backup . It's baffling

I think the worst case is the Patriots pick 5th. You're talking about drafting Daniels, Bowers, Nabers or one of the tackles then. Don't think the Patriots beat the Chiefs, resurgent Broncos on the road or the Bills on the road. If they beat the Jets and end with 4 wins then you probably need other teams to win with tough schedules to win a game to pick top 3.


Jets and Commanders still have to play each other and so do the Bears and Cardinals. If i understand the tiebreakers right now if the Patriots win one game, the Giants, Commanders, Bears and Titans all lose out then the top 5 would go. Bears, Bears, Giants, Patriots and Commanders.


If the Patriots win one game and the Cardinals, Jets, Titans and Giants all lose out then the top 5 is Bears, Cardinals, Jets, Giants and Patriots.

Bears still have the Falcons and Browns to play if they don't beat the Cardinals
Cardinals still have the Seahawks at home if they don't beat the Bears
Giants have the Saints
Jets still have the Browns

The rest of the games are all hard for the 3-4 win teams

I think the Cards with Murray could win a couple more games down the stretch.



I like Peppers, would be a good guy to keep around, one of the few.

49ers at home, Bears on the road, Eagles on the road and Seahawks at home are how they end the season. Just need them to match the Patriots record to have the better pick. Best for the Patriots would be the Cardinals beating the Bears and the Bears beating the Falcons or Browns.

 

[Oates2Neely]

I think it’s best they finish bottom 3

 

[Morris Wanchuk]

Booo, this one hurt the tank.

 

[Smitty93]

They're already jumping ship

 

[The National]

I’m tired of Bill as coach/GM but glad he gets to enjoy the Army Navy game today you can tell how much he cares about it. Almost human on College Gameday.

They're already jumping ship

Why would you ever hire anyone from this mess of an offense haha

 

[Mione134]

They're already jumping ship

Our WRs look like trash so good luck to him getting out of here

 

[The National]

 

[Mione134]

I just don't see it happening. Sadly.

If it’s not happening after the past 2-3 years then all Krafts huffing in puffing in the offseasons is fraudulent

Agreed

I'd be stunned if there isn't some kind of mutual parting of ways after the season.

Belichick wants to break Shula's record. This team is too far away from being able to do that in a reasonable amount of time. If the Chargers are interested (and Staley's 100% getting fired), I think Belichick would jump at the chance to coach Herbert.

And Kraft would let me out of his contract because he knows the organization needs fresh blood, but he doesn't want to end on bad terms, especially with the way things ended with Brady here.

 

[The National]

Bill’s squad is playing like the Pats today

 

[LSCII]

RIP long time Titans TE Frank Wychek. Passed away from a fall in his home after hitting his head. Crazy. Way too young

 

[The National]

Love how the Rams traded away like a zillion picks to form their super bowl team yet still come out of the draft with an excellent receiver in Nacua.

 

[Bruinswillwin77]

I don't think Trevor Lawrence will make a deep playoff run with how dinged up he looks physically.

 

[KesselBuiltMyHotrod]

... go Jets

 

[Bruinswillwin77]

Go Flacco lol.

 

[BigGoalBrad]

I hope KC has to play Cincy in the wildcard game.

Awful move by the Jags to not give Lawrence another week to recover.
