I think the only person that can justify going for it with almost 7 minutes left is the coach. Everyone else thinks it was a bonehead move. Especially when you stop to think that the 2 point PAT has about a 25% success rate.

Plus The Broncos didn't do jack #^&#^&#^&#^& offensively in the second half.

And Brady has always been less than spectacular when he's picking himself up off the ground more than 10 times a game.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.

I am a Pats fan to the end but I am sick and tired of Coach Bill and his arrogant persona.


He blew this year with the stupid rugby kick in the Eagles game, the kicking the ball in overtime in the Jets game and the crap offensive and defensive calls in the Miami game.

We win one of those 3 games and the Broncos have to come through Foxbore and while there is no guarantee of a win, they certainly would have been better off with home field advantage.

For 7 years he had deferred to kick at the beginning of the came when he wins the coin toss. Yesterday he decided to receive. BS!!

4th and 6 in the Redzone and he goes for it rather than the field goal. 4th and 10 in the Redzone and he goes for it rather than the field goal. That's 6 points. Again no guarantee that they win but, 6 points are still better than ZERO!!

No boat, back in the suds.

Although I still think he's a great coach, I agree with the rest of your remarks.. ..they should have SO gone for the 3 points , then try for the win. There have been quite a few head-shakers toward the end of the season (last few games particularly)....This is normally when I begin to think that it's fixed (again). Good thing I rarely gamble on sports anymore.
Denver's D was intense no doubt, but the Pat's Offense was terrible,...and what was that dance that Brady was doing? There was no one near him? I'll be disgusted for awhile, try my hardest to route for the AFC none-the-less.

...it finally happened, there are no more secret spots

When you see a totally bogus call by a ref, and you see rediculus coaching judgement, never forget that it could indeed be a rigged game.
