Letting Matty Ice put 440 on you is nuts.

it was all underneath stuff too.

The home field on next-gen is NCAA 14 on steroids. I pretty much the entire first half not being able to see the defense/offense I just called post snap with the squiggly lines and just straight up sometimes the wrong play.

Thank god we're at home next lmao

Titans rally back from 21-0 deficit to beat Patriots
The New England Patriots were up 21-0 and had the ball at the Tennessee one-yard line when Bill Belichick called a timeout and pulled his field goal unit off the field and kept Mac Jones and the offense on as they tried to go up four touchdowns with 11:10 left in the third quarter.

A similar call in the first half led to Jonnu Smith's two-yard touchdown catch from Jones. Jones would be sacked this time around, would throw a pick-six on the next offensive possession and would be stripped later on that quarter, leading to a Tennessee touchdown and ignite the Titans comeback.

Jones would throw his second pick six of the game with 2:34 left, giving the Titans the eventual game winning touchdown in their 28-21 comeback victory.

The Patriots were very un-Patriot like in the second half with penalties and two fumbles by Rhamondre Stevenson, one of which was narrowly overturned before Jones' second and ultimate pick six. Jones finished with 403 yards passing, a career high, but once again threw the ball 50 times as the Patriot offense now found themselves trailing in the fourth quarter.

Jones led the team to their red zone before his fourth down pass to Hunter Henry was incomplete from the Titans 23-yard line with 46 seconds left in the game.

The Titans won the game despite putting up just 171 yards of total offense including just 71 on the ground, picking up with eight first downs compared to New England's 31 first downs.

New England holds off Allen, Bills comeback effort to take control of AFC East
They're not done, not yet at least.

After losing in back to back weeks in games where they held late fourth quarter leads, the New England Patriots once again found themselves up in the fourth quarter and their lead dwindling. This time around, the defense was able to make the stops and Nick Folk's two fourth quarter field goals were enough to hold off the Buffalo Bills and lead the Patriots to a 44-35 win on Monday night.

New England scored seventeen unanswered points in the second quarter, including a scoop and score from rookie defensive tackle Christian Barmore off a strip sack by Matthew Judon on quarterback Josh Allen.

Allen threw for 360 yards and four touchdowns but it was Mac Jones' modest 154 yards passing that got the job done and left with the win. New England was able to control the game with their rushing attack, running for 228 yards against the league's sixth ranked rushing defense and top scoring defense.

Damien Harris led the way with 178 yards on the ground and two rushing touchdowns while Rhamondre Stevens added 35 yards.
