Patriots Twitter growing restless after 31-17 loss to Dolphins
The New England Patriots lost to the Miami Dolphins by a 31-17 score on Sunday.
It was a tough day for the Patriots defense, especially with Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa throwing for 324 yards, three touchdowns and one interception. Wide receiver Tyreek Hill also had a big day with eight catches for 112 yards and one touchdown.
There were some positives in the game.
Wide receiver Kendrick Bourne caught three passes for 36 yards and a touchdown prior to his injury, and safety Kyle Dugger had a strong showing, including snagging an interception on Tagovailoa.
On offense, the Patriots showed some fight late, but they faced many of the same issues with Mac Jones turning the ball over behind a struggling offensive line with limited offensive weapons.
Fans had varied emotions on Twitter, following the loss, as the Patriots dropped to 2-6 on the season.
The flag was thrown before JuJu Smith-Shuster even stood up. The officials made up a call after the fact. Then the Miami Dolphins players tried to fight the Patriots. Penalty on New England only??? #NEvsMIA

After 20 years of excellence our New England Patriots were due a good painful rebuild.
And we’re currently in one.
Now we’ll separate the true Pats fans from the plastic glory hunting bandwagoners.#ForeverNE

If Mac Jones never played another down for the New England Patriots I'd be happy.
He isn't good enough. In any way.
It isn't all his fault, but he just isn't a starting calibre quarterback week to week.

Dear Mr. Kraft: These, your, New England Patriots stink. This is embarrassing. Please do something. Don't let your amazing legacy be tarnished by this dreck. We all know what has to be done. Just do it and get it over with.

Now that the Patriots season is officially flushed, can we move on from Jones and see if New England has an NFL caliber quarterback on the team.
