It was a near-sleepless night for Tom Brady after the Patriots lost to the Dolphins, 27-24, at Gillette Stadium Sunday.

The Patriots quarterback has acknowledgd that he struggles to go to bed after losses. Following the defeat to Miami — which cost New England a first-round playoff bye — Brady told WEEI’s “The Greg Hill Show’’ Monday morning that his emotions were still running high.

“Yeah, that’s a good assumption,’’ said Brady when asked if he couldn’t sleep. “I was just tossing and turning. Not much sleep and you just have a lot of emotion after the game. You hate to have nights like that, but you have to do something to change them. It’s important to just realize our goals are ahead of us and we have to go out there and try to have our best week and figure out how to win a game.’’

Despite his obvious frustration, Brady remained determined on the road ahead.

New England faces the Tennessee Titans in the wild-card round Saturday at 8:15 p.m.

“You can’t change anything from yesterday,’’ said Brady. “You can try to correct it and learn from it, but you can’t change it. I’m sure everyone feels disappointment. I mean that’s just part of the natural part of the game when you don’t play your best and you lose and you do things that allow you to lose. For me, that’s what I think about: the plays that I made that I missed that would’ve given us the chance to win. But it’s not my first loss. And you realize that one week doesn’t lead to the next week.’’

“This week is a new week and we’re going to have to put a lot into it in order to get as much as we can out of it,’’ Brady added. “And that’s to try to play our best football in the biggest game of the year, because if we don’t win this one, the season’s over.’’

The 42-year-old managed to keep the 12-4 season in perspective.

“Fortunately, our season’s still going,’’ said Brady. “And even though we lost yesterday, we still have a chance next week. That’s better than a lot of teams, and we’re not going to take it for granted that if we win this week, our season keeps going. That’s a good place to be.’’

What bothers Brady about the loss was the way in which the Patriots made it easy for the Dolphins.

“We can certainly execute a lot better than we did yesterday,’’ Brady said. “We had too many unforced errors. Things that Miami didn’t even have to do to stop us. And I think that’s when you know you’re disappointed in the way you played is that it’s just self-inflicted errors. If they go and make — and I give them all the credit for winning — but there are things that we did that we shouldn’t do. We have to tighten those things up.’’
