The Patriots’ glaring roster deficiencies don’t even make starting Jarrett Stidham worth it.

If it were up to New England Patriots fans, they would likely choose to be put out of their misery and have this season end already. With a chance to player a spoiler against a division rival in Buffalo and avoid their first losing season since 2000, they laid an absolute egg, getting run out of their own stadium by a final score of 38-9.
