The Patriots are out. The big question going forward is Tom Brady done in New England.
If the Patriots’ 20-13 loss at Gillette Saturday was the end of an era for the Patriots’ quarterback, it went out with a thud.
The Titans closed out New England’s hopes with a brilliant punt by Brett Kern that pinned the Pats at their one.

Then, what could possibly be the final Patriots’ pass in Brady’s career was intercepted for a Pick-Six by former New England DB Logan Ryan.

This marked the first time in the NFL Brady has thrown Pick-Sixes in back-to-back games.
Now, let the speculation erupt over whether the free-agent-to-be will return to the Pats for the 2020 season.
