Patriots Twitter shreds Bailey Zappe after brutal loss to Titans
The New England Patriots were defeated by the Tennessee Titans 23-7 in the final preseason game of 2023. With the loss, the Patriots dropped to 1-2 on the preseason slate.
Quarterback Bailey Zappe got the start for New England and went 8-of-15 for 57 yards on a night when the offense struggled. Kevin Harris carried the ball seven times for 17 yards for the only touchdown of the game for New England.
The Patriots started off strong defensively, but fatigue was a factor towards the later parts of the game. Tennessee quarterback Malik Willis was able to use his scrambling ability and strong arm to lead the Titans to victory.
Let’s take a look at some of the best reactions from Patriots Twitter.

Bailey Zappe is done in NE. Malik/Trace might have made it by default.

I think tonight marks the official date that the Zappe hype has died.

To all the Bailey Zappe fans, your guy sucks. If Mac Jones gets hurt the Pats a r e screwed. Cut Zappe and bring back Hoyer. Never thought I would say that.

The Bailey Zappe truthers have to go into hiding after tonight 😭
Mac Jones is the #Patriots QB1 – don’t question it!

Zappe has been sacked 5 times and has fumbled 3 times tonight.
Absolutely horrific. He is not your QB2 on this roster.

I can’t believe there was really a debate about who was better between Mac Jones and Bailey Zappe. Mac is miles ahead.
