Take this to the Bank,The 3 Reasons we lost to the Colts.
1.Any Defense that allows 32 Points in a half of football doesn't deserve to win......A 21-3 lead should have been enough.....TBC,Bruschi and the rest of the DL were horrendous in the 2nd half.
2.Recche Caldwell and Kevin Faulk,to put it mildy,just choked.....there's,no other way to put it.
Their critical drops were crushing,and along with Maroney's lack of focus,they were the primary reason for our loss.
3.Tom Brady,I know nobody wants to hears this,but he was so-off target,on some many easy throws.that i think that he cost us a chance at another SB victory.
In both the SD and Indy Games,Brady had many chances,but now,he seems too rattled to succeed.
I don't think he can do it anymore.....he's become too erratic,
Overall,it was a great season,but I was most dissappointed in:Lawrence Maroney ,Tully Banta-Cain and Richard Seymour

Re: Take this to the Bank,The 3 Reasons we lost to the Colts.
Ok, Brady has been rattled. I think we can all agree on that. Well why is it that he hasn't looked the same? Is it that he woke up one day and lost a step or is it lack of confidence in his receivers? Hmmm.
Maroney was not dissapointing from early to mid season. He hit the wall, so do a lot of other rookies. Meanwhile where's Chad Jackson and Marquise Hill on your dissapointment list?

GET A GRIP.
You got the first two pretty reasonably, then you lost your mind. I find it's a good exercise to preview my posts, then think about what I just said, and think twice before I post something really, really stupid. Of course you are free to follow another formula at your own risk.

Gee. Maybe we should trade him and go with Cassel.

Yikes!.....the comment about Brady was,too over the top...I just meant to say that he's getting rattled in big games,now.
Like Manning,in previous playoff games.
I think this whole game turned on the drops by Faulk and Caldwell and also by Brady's inaccuracies on short passes.
TB's missing those easy short passes are what cost us dearly,IMO.

Re: Take this to the Bank,The 3 Reasons we lost to the Colts.
When I look at things that went wrong tonight, I see a defense that got lit up, torched and shredded to the tune of 464 yards that cost us the game. Brady's play is well down the list of things that didn't go right today. He could have been better, but the defense was abysmal.

3.Tom Bradyinjured all year,I know nobody wants to hears this,but he was so-off target,on some many easy throws.that i think that he cost us a chance at another SB victory.
In both the SD and Indy Games,Brady had many chances,but now,he seems too rattled to succeed.

Overall,it was a great season,but I was most dissappointed in:Lawrence Maroneystill injured ,Tully Banta-Cainhe's a sub and Richard Seymourinjured today
I think you need to pay better attention to what you are looking at.
Better yet, ask yourself ... don't you think these guys were trying?

Pay attention to what?
Of course they were trying.....but ,wide open,you HAVE to make those catches.
Caldwell,in the flat,killed us......Don't you agree?
