    D'Anthony Thomas makes some very poor decisions

    I don't know why returners just don't take a knee for a touchback and start at the 25. Unless you really need a play, I do t see the benefit.

    Ugh, another big play. Suffering with injuries now. No Hightower, no Flowers.

    Alex Smith has 300 yards and 4 TDs.

    Ugh. I know Tom is 40 but just run the sneak. This is worrying.

    Yeah we have had three of these and our no.1 play in that position is the QB sneak and we are so successful with it, I don't understand why we haven't went with it.

    Yip. Sneak must work >90% of the time, yet we run right into them.

    Running upthe gut against that Chiefs front 7 on 4th and inches was stupid at best. They have shown us already why. Such a nonsense call

    Gillislee has one run for 16yds, otherwise he's averaged 2yds a carry.

    14 pens so far on the Chiefs. Tough to speed up the game when that happens.

    Good work from the D, crucial stop by McCourty there when it looked like they were getting a first down. We need to get the lead on this drive.

    That throw on 3rd down was poor. Tom's throws have been off tonight, there's no denying it. He doesn't look himself at all.

    A number of throws have not been good. Can't say the receivers have looked like getting open that much either. Just 2 catches for Gronk.

    No confidence in his WR

    I certainly hope it's the Madden curse rather than the 40 year old drop off :o

    This Pats team looks like they have never played together, which isn't far from the truth.

    Absolutely zero pass rush without Flowers or Hightower who was playing a bit on the edge. And I mean absolutely zero. This is a huge problem because we weren't getting a ton of pressure with them either.

    For all the additions we made, our pass rush is threadbare. Ealy didn't work out, Rivers is gone.... we're in big trouble. We'd want to be breaking out next year's picks and making a trade or two to address it. I'd be giving Dwight Freeney a call too to kick some tyres.

    There was some early pressure, but it's evaporated. Brady has had it easy in comparison, but it's been an off night (with 27pts and still time left).
    The D has been shredded. Those 2 big play TDs are exactly what Bill try's to avoid most of all, but they've been huge.

    Think it's just a new receiving core issue. Haven't seen much of Gronk since basically that TD that was called back though
