Only caught the start of this en route to work, but I thought it was great. It's amazing not only how articulate and convincing Brady is, but how much he clearly cares for Belichick as a coach.
I would've loved to hear what those two jack*****es D&C had to say after Brady basically told them they were wrong and explained why.
I also thought Brady's remarks re: Bruschi were pointed and a very passionate defense of his coach, even if it meant taking a subtle shot at a former teammate.
Really, I think Brady would probably literally take a bullet for Belichick after hearing this interview. The guy loves his coach. And everything he said was true - they didn't execute, and they had MANY chances to end the game, and didn't - so how can anyone pin the game on Belichick?
Also, Brady was not pleased with the ref's spot, but was very political about it.

Though I urge people to listen, b/c I thought it came off as a pretty passionate, albeit political, defense of his coach, and probably one of the more convincing arguments I've heard yet re: the play.

After reading that, I wish the Powers kid had intercepted the pass to Welker and ran it in for the go ahead TD.

Well aren't you a hell of a fan That actually would have been better, strategically, since we'd have a real chance to come back, but I don't think that that's what you were getting at.
On a side note, this quote from Brady pretty much sums it up:
Quote:
Before that last possession , they went down the field in less than two minutes and scored. We lost a couple of our best pass-rushers in Tully [Banta-Cain], who was banged-up. The same thing happened in the AFC championship game in 2006. We had a third-and-4, we missed it, we punted to them, and they went down the field in less than two minutes to score again. And Tedy was on that field that day. You can argue it a lot of ways.
That's a not-so-subtle "shut the **** up, Tedy" if you ask me.

No question....Brady tends to gett very defensive as opposed to letting it roll when outsiders verbally criticize players & coaches on the team (see 2005 Marty Schottenheimer). Bru is an outsider now.

I wouldn't go that far - but let's put it this way, Bradys pick earlier in the game has more to do with the loss than Belichick's play-call. Not that I'm putting blame on Brady as he played as good a game as you could ask. Just pointing out that its the players who play the game, and if they pull off that 4th & 2, and I think they did, everyone would be praising Belichick.

Lets face it. if it was jeff fisher or dungy who pulled this move would peter king call them arrogant ? no. its BB. they love to criticize and hate him . that is the point thats all.
