I do give some pass for play if there were legitimately a significant argument going on through halftime and the entire second half. I'd like to say players need to shake that and just play the game and worry about it later, but I certainly understand how it affects their psyche and makes it harder to concentrate on the task at hand.
It remains difficult, though, to put the entirety of the blame on Bienemy and the play calls at the end of the game. In the end, Patrick should know the plays, receivers were open, and, at minimum, he needs to go through his progressions and throw the ball. It's a tad bit concerning if he were so flustered by what transpired that he couldn't put it away for a couple of minutes and just execute.
I'll drop the "threw the game" narrative but there are still issues with Patrick as much as anyone in all of this. Fight through it and let the offseason decisions be made.
