I just think Patrick’s head wasn’t there on 4th down, guys. He lost his composure after the offsides and hadn’t bounced back from that play. Not the first time this has happened, we saw it go down after Tyreek was stopped at the 1 against the Bengals.
Last season he did a tremendous job shedding things like this and reframing his mindset from play to play. But, for all intents and purposes, the game was lost the moment the offensive offsides was called. Mentally Patrick wasn’t there after that — and that’s unfortunate, because overall his timing seemed to tick up a bit against Buffalo compared to where he was in weeks past. He just hasn’t been able to capture a full game of MVP level play like he did so consistently in 2022. A tough bar to clear for sure, but he’s been a couple notches below it thus far.
