Week 6 - Pats @ Raiders
- Thread starter Dr. Gonzo
- Start date
The Patriots have very few drops, and Mac's placement has been shit all year.... But also yes the WRs don't get good separation and the line is terrible outsider of Brown.
Yep. It doesn’t even matter who plays QB at this point because the team around him is a flaming pile of dog shit.
I'm wondering if Kraft wants Bill to be in the Germany game at least, for some sentimental reason.
Shitty throws on that last drive. Didn’t even give his receivers a chance to make a play on the ball and not to mention he had all day from the OL
Are you fucking serious with this shit. If Jesus came down to Earth he couldn’t QB this shit offense.
Outside of the one handed Hunter Henry catch in like week one, I don't think there has been a single great catch made by a Pats receiver that shouldn't be made by anyone collecting paychecks to catch footballs in the NFL.
If the ball doesn't hit them in the chest, they aren't expected to make a play.
Exactly. That was a perfect pass and Parker — who’s supposed to be good at catching that kind of shit — fucked it up.
Yeah he should have.... not hit his deep threat receiver right in the hands on a ball that would have put them nearly in FG range
and we would love to have him as a Patriot ...they are always pricks when they are not on your team
Yeah Mac made a good play - I drag him here so I am going to say it - he made a great throw there that, had Parker caught it, sets them up for a fairly easy FG. Now Ryland converting it is a different story and there are all sorts of 2023 NEP ways the game could go awry. But Jones put this team in a position to win and his teammates (OL all day and all year, Parker) let him down.
We don't need to exaggerate how bad Mac is - just state facts.

Mac didn't lose the game himself (especially at the end), but let's be honest - he wasn't great today again. He missed several open throws and got lucky on a dropped INT.
He isn't the answer.
He isn't the answer.
I have confidence they would have found a way to have 2 penalties and end up back on their own end of the field
Yeah, totally on him that Parker can't catch,his OC is calling run plays with two minutes left, and of course the O line can't block for more then 2 seconds max.
Naw, “single” is an exaggeration; there was that other one in that other game.
True, He also threw one of the worst interceptions of the year.
The whole team blows.
I'm not a serious fan, but that strikes me as unlikely. This isn't throwing Hackett under the bus, it's disentangling a long-standing and more complex arrangement.
Yeah, that’s the thing. Having a bad QB makes you bad, but not 1-16 bad. Having a bad EVERYTHING on offense makes you 1-16 bad.
Hi, yes, my name is Ralph. Please to meet you. Would you like to join my PPR league?
Fair but it’s worth remembering that Parker has never been good and never will be good. His one productive season came when he got a billion balls thrown his way.
Bill extending him for real money is the kind of act that gets an old person’s keys taken away.
This is an exceedingly poor take on what just happened. And I say that as someone who is as ready to see Mac gone as anyone.
The truth of the NFL is that there will be drops and mistakes and the QB has to go and make another play and he promptly took a delay and then a safety.
He fucking blows. Get him gone.
The run call was fine, the clock was going to stop anyway and it's a 1st down if either Mafi doesn't hold behind the play or the refs call a phantom hold, we never saw a replay so who knows which it was.
I hope it's so he can draft two tackles, a tight end, and a receiver who can catch the ball.
If this is a 3-win team, Caleb Williams makes it a 4-win team. Maybe.
If the team finishes 1-16 I don’t think Bill will be allowed to be GM or coach of the team. That would be enough to fire him
That’s not what happened here. Mac can suck without the last drive being on him.
It's a go to move around here to blame Mac for everything, and ignore the multiple times he's made plays to give his team a chance in close ones and have his team fuck up. Bourne dropping a dime on a long third down this year, Boutte not getting his feet down twice this year, Rham fumbling against Cincy when going in for the win last year, the Meyers/Rham lateral insanity against the Raiders, etc.
Mac has also had plenty of games that he was the reason they lost or didn't make a final drive, but this statistic about Mac not being able to win in the end is fucking stupid. There's 11 guys on the field, and half of them, if not more, are literally incapable of playing winning football when it matters..
