Whats wrong with my truck, first it wouldn't start then it started sputtering when i got it started

My truck wouldnt start and had a continuous clicking sound when i tried starting it, so we replaced the negative battery terminal because it was corroded, then it still wouldn't start so we boosted it and then it started but was sputtering every time i pressed on the gas then it eventually died and then the battery was dead again and it doesn't even make the clicking sound now when you try to turn it on.
