I realize he's not done yet, but if the Pats need great special teams players out of their 3rd and 4th RB, then don't waste a 3rd round pick on a RB that can't play special teams. At the least, they have wasted a year of control now. Another lineman or TE probably would have helped just a tad more. With the pick of Harris, I totally believed that Bolden or Burkhead would be cut since you don't invest 3rd round picks in RB that you don't even need. Brady and Belichick are a little weird with "trust". It took them until the last few weeks to even let Harry touch the ball. BB does things his own way and often it leaves us scratching our heads when it comes to the draft. If you want to you can create a long list of failed picks that were pretty high. Then again you could come up with an impressive list of guys he picked up off the scrap heap also. Of course we can question things but I am happy with the results. I totally get that and it's hard to argue with the championships, but you kinda have to give a running back more than 4 touches a year to see if he's a failed pick. LOL, now Elandon Roberts has 1/4 of the touches that Harris has this season. Nice catch too.

Nice catch yes but Tom almost blew it with a high pass. He has not been accurate today nor for much of the season.

Brady has been positively terrible and likely won’t get criticized for it. But you cannot do a worse job than what McDaniels has done this year.

This team is trying it's hardest to play wild card weekend.
The Chiefs are winning big. Almost there you dopes. Just have to lose to the Dolphins at home here.

This team is about to lose at home to the Dolphins in a game they absolutely needed to have. This game is the epitome of this season.

Worst coaching performance I’ve ever seen from the Patriots.

Worst coaching performance I’ve ever seen from the Patriots. You do realize that just about every single play is an audible and/or option, right?

There hasn't been a Patriot team that's played on wild card weekend and won a championship. This ain't the same Pats no more. This dynasty is almost completely over soon enough.

They decided to quit at the end of the first half then started the second with inexplicably bad play calling. It was a pathetic performance by everyone including the coaching staff.

You blew this team out in Miami by 43 points. Now you just choke.

Losing is one thing, you can't win every game. But some of you are not even fans, I wonder where you even came from. Have a nice day.

It was a pathetic performance by everyone including the coaching staff. Brady changes more plays than probably any QB to every play the game. He controls the play calling more than Josh does. Sometimes the players just aren't good, it isn't always the coaches or Refs.

Really on our D, they showed almost nothing on that final drive.

Almost as bad as chicken and beer for the Sox. Some fans just can call it like they see it. We accept the homerish takes. Yet, other people lose their minds (on here) when it's the opposite. Add- They didn't need to win every game. They needed to win 13 games to get a bye week.

12-4 at the outset would have constituted a solid season, especially with Gronk's retirement. Today was a big disappointment. Still, NE is in the playoffs.

I think only Peyton Manning did it more. I don't even think they called plays from the sidelines half the time.

Fire Belichick for not getting a 1st round bye for the first time in 10 seasons!

Remember when the Giants lost their way into the playoffs and had to rely on the Cowboys losing that last week, finishing 9-7 and ended up beating the undefeated Patriots in the Super Bowl?

A lot of people are ticked and dissapointed by this. Thanks for taking your homerish opinion to the 10th degree again though!!

Tell us how Brady and Belichick were ordering chicken and beer again while calling me unreasonable.

Brady has not been the same this year. Not even at the beginning when he had to rely on his defense to help him win games. His accuracy is off, even to wide open receivers. I hate to see it, but this might be the beginning of the end. Every game he plays in the playoffs has the potential to be his last in New England. He might go somewhere else, but it won't matter. I think he's used up his talents and lost to Father Time, as we all do. I know it's sad. I'm feeling kinda low for him right now. But, I think I've seen reality. It's been a hell of a ride. For 20 years he's always come through. But, not anymore.
If, somehow we win the next 4 games and the SB, then I will be the first to apologize for doubting him. But, I don't see that coming. Whatever happens, it's been fun for a long time.
