Julio might be done. I don’t think it’s just the titans. When he’s been on the field this year he hasn’t been able to get any separation.

It’s sad to see.

Hope he did enough to get hof or has a resurgence.

A bad hamstring is going to make it difficult to separate. But this is also two lost seasons for him in a row due to nagging injuries. Unfortunately for Julio his body has been breaking down on him since he was like 19 years old, but youth offset it. Youth isn't offsetting it anymore. I think he's borderline HoF right now because Matt Ryan fricked him out of at least 15-20 career TDs by never being able to throw a catchable goal line fade and Kyle Shanahan fricked him out of an iconic play in a Super Bowl win. He needs to get to 15,000+ yards to be a lock.

I have nothing against the guy but it’s kind of annoying to see Johnathan Taylor getting more MVP buzz this year than Henry did last year despite Henry having just as good if not better numbers.

I still think Julio has a couple of seasons left in him. He's not in his prime anymore obviously, but a healthy Julio is still an above average WR.

I doubt he's in Nashville next season though. The days of $15 million/year contracts are over. The key is whether that means his drive to excel is over.

That’s the problem. I think the talent is still there. He was on the injury report throughout much of his career with the Falcons too. But back then he could play through it and even had some of his best games in weeks he was listed on the injury report.

But now that he’s older he can’t play through the injuries anymore. He was injured a lot last season. He’s been injured for the majority of this season. He will be 33 shortly so I don’t see how his injury issues just go away.

Hightower is far, far past his prime. Getting put on his back by a scatback.

Hopefully, New England drafts his replacement this go-around.

Lol he’s been pretty good still. They do need to develop someone for the future though

He plays hesitant now and shies away from contact a lot, like he's either injured, or afraid of getting injured.

He runs himself out of plays now, like Dylan Moses post-injury bad. It's glaring when you're an inside backer.

Not a good half for Mac.

But the officials picking up that late hit out of bounds flag was ridiculous considering how QBs are protected. Clearly out of bounds and was shoved...the defender trying to hold him up only pulled him backwards risking injury. No one can say the Pats are getting home cooking at home.

No doubt Mr. February is near the end of his career and what a great career he has had.

Damien Harris with his 3rd rushing TD and over a 100 yards. He gashed the Bills the last time they played too

Harris could’ve been a 1K yard rusher this year had he stayed healthy

D just can’t get a stop. Bryant is getting abused.

Patriots defense couldn't force a single punt today. Not 1.

That's atrocious. They should all donate their game checks to charity.

Mac could have had a better result today. NE defense has been bad.

The Bills QB is a great playmaker and he puts pressure on the D every snap. NE isn't a great defense in any area.

I am surprised Bill still sends out #1 Harry to play on Sunday for that guy is one if not the largest bust every by NE.

Barmore jumped offside on 4 and 8 that was a huge mistake in the 1st half and the Bills converted leading to another TD.

The NE OL couldn't block the Bills (all day long) and Mack didn't get it done on the pressure of the Bills rush and big a game this was.

NE has Jax and Fins to close the season. 2 very average games back to back for Mack under the pressure of huge games for the playoffs.

Mac needs some wide receivers. NE whole offense is TE, TE, rb, wr. Draft him some wide receivers and obviously some defensive help.

I don't want to watch Mac vs Tua with a playoff spot on the line for both teams.
Hate they're in the same division.

There was a horrific drop the play before Mac's INT.
