Ugh.
It’s a day later and I’m still mad about that Christmas Eve loss to the New England Patriots.
The thing is...I never thought the 3-11 Patriots would be a pushover (my one surprise was that Ryland made a 56-yard field goal - who knew?) I’m mostly mad because the problems Sunday night started long before that kick.
And I happen to think they started before kickoff.
Ryan Koenigsburg made a great point in a post-game show about Sean Payton “playing not to lose rather than playing to win.”
He also tweeted during the game that it seemed like Payton was almost trying to put a loss on his QB.
