“Stupid!” the Patriots radio color commentator said as the clock ran out following a completion in bounds on the final play of the game.

Zolak then went off on the current state of the team, making a bold claim about how bad the loss was.

“This is the worst loss since Tom Brady left the Patriots, and there have been some bad ones,” he said at the end of the Patriots radio broadcast. “Maybe you start looking at tackles at the top of the draft next year, because that’s where you’re headed.”

Zolak, who is also a co-host of 98.5 The Sports Hub’s midday show alongside Marc Bertrand, followed up his end-of-game comments by going off on the current state of the team.

Zolak took issue with quarterback Jacoby Brissett throwing a completion to Hunter Henry in bounds on a play that started with 12 seconds left on the game. The former quarterback said that NFL teams need at least 17 seconds to throw a pass in bounds and stop the clock — and that Brissett should know that.
