NFL fans had jokes when Bill Belichick spiked his tablet as the Patriots took another dismal loss

Bill Belichick Patriots NFL Tom Brady Mac Jones

The Patriots are easily on the worst run of Bill Belichick’s career in New England. And what was supposed to be an opportunity for the Patriots to right the ship against a struggling Raiders team just ended up as another frustrating afternoon.

Apparently, a tablet had to pay the price for that.

As the Patriots fell to 1-5 against Las Vegas — in a game that the Patriots never led — Belichick was spotted on the sidelines spiking the tablet out of frustration going into the two-minute warning. And if he thought that was bad: This was before quarterback Mac Jones would take a sack in the end zone for a safety and effectively end the game.

When you’re dropping to 1-5 for the first time since 1995, I guess a tablet spike isn’t out of the question.

As expected, though, that demoralized reaction from Belichick had NFL fans making jokes.

This was how Twitter reacted
