The Pats had 100% red zone efficiency against the Broncos. The problem isn't the red zone offense, lately
Broncos: 2 trips, 2 touchdowns
Ravens: 5 trips, 3 touchdowns, 2 FGs
Falcons: 5 trips, 1 touchdown, 4 FGs. << It did suck in this game, but we won anyways, so it's hard to say that it's 'killing' us
Jets: 3 trips, 3 FG << sucked, and was one of many factors that cost us the game.
Bills: 5 trips, 3 touchdowns, 2 FGs
So yeah, there was a 2 game stretch where the red-zone offense was pretty bad, and for hte last 2 games (and the first game) it's been good. Far from the disaster that you're claiming it to be... unless you're one of those people that thinks that every single red zone trip must result in a touchdown, end of story.
