The Oline.

They continue to come up small in the playoffs. Cost us a title in 07 and they're straight getting their ass whooped here. We need to replace Koppen, the man is done he simply cannot handle an elite DT. We can improve over Neal, im tired of light wasting everyones time on this roster. I'd die for a line I could trust.

Blame it on adjustments all you want, but all I'm seeing is Brady on the ground. Jesus could bless this team and they simply aren't gonna get 3 points playing this way. Yet again the line is killing us in the postseason. Just sayin.

Umm, they were playing pretty darn well up until now. So what happened differently?

they get exposed later in the season? Have we not always said Brady makes them look better than they are? When it comes to elie defenses, this happens

They demolished pretty much this same defense in Week 13. So, again, what changed?

while the OL was bad today, I still think that the Pats win if not for 1) benching Welker in the first series and 2) fake punt at the end of the first half. Both were ridiculous, flat-out awful decisions by Belichick.

Even when Brady had tome to throw he had no one open. The Jests blanketed the Pats skill players all game long and rendered them totally ineffective. Whether that is a skill player problem or a playcalling problem I don't know but it needs to be fixed going forward because the Jests aren't leaving the division anytime soon!

Look, I'm ALL about the lines. Good lines, you win. But how bad did they play?

I saw Brady multiple times checking out the receivers like a half dozen times. Nobody open. Is that on the line? Don't think so.

I agree. Aside from the blind side blitz in the first half, the rest were coverage sacks.

I felt Brady had a lot more time later in the 3rd/4th quarters, but didn't have much time prior to that, which is why the majority of our points were posted in the second half. The line seemed to stabilize a bit as the game went on.
