VIDEO: FS1 Giving Patriots Most Motivation Ever With Literal End of Patriots Dynasty Countdown
By Scott Rogust
As every football fan knows, you can never count out the New England Patriots in the playoffs just because of poor performances in the regular season. How many times have all of us said the Patriots dynasty is over, only to be mocked by quarterback Tom Brady and head coach Bill Belichick hoisting a Lombardi Trophy nearly every February? While this year certainly looks like the end of the New England era (we think), Fox Sports 1 and talking head Jason Whitlock gave the Patriots bulletin board material by using a literal countdown clock on the "Speak for Yourself" show on Monday, ahead of their Wild Card Game against the Tennessee Titans.
If anyone's wondering or cares, this is where the countdown started... "Bill Belichick/Tom Brady funeral.... It's over! O-V-E-R. Brian Flores and the Miami Dolphins killed the Patriots dynasty yesterday" -@WhitlockJason pic.twitter.com/ppBvOGWroD

Whitlock isn't a stranger to making outrageous claims, so this shouldn't stun anybody.
But come on man, why are you poking the bear after the Patriots lost to the Dolphins? New England suffered a similar loss last season via the Miami Miracle, and the end result saw the Patriots dominate the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl LIII.
More people are reading this tweet than watch FS1 on an average day.

While the Titans have the chance to put up a fight against the Patriots, we're not dumb enough to claim the dynasty is over. It'd be hilarious to see how Whitlock and Co. respond if the Patriots are to advance to the Divisional Round.
