Haven't read the whole thread so I don't know if this was mentioned.
Seeing the replay (I know Underwood was held), but even if he came down with that ball it looked like his body was positioned to catch that ball and NOT keep his feet inbounds.
as for the BOB and Brady jawing at each other. While you have to like BOB for sticking up for the little guys, he also has to keep his head in the game and try to keep things more even keeled. Let the player vent a bit, but shut it down soon after (and I've never seen someone who once started yelling stop when someone yelled back at them).

Oh, really? He's carrying Welker and Gronkowski? The same Gronkowski who caught a bad pass, fell on the ground, got up, broke 2 tackles, and ran 50 yards? And who just broke the record for receiving TD's by a TE in just 13 games? Or Welker, who lays his body on the line every day and has since 2007, who is Brady's safety net and has been run into the ground?
Brady threw the bad pass, he should take the blame, and move on.

Underwood should have been fighting for the ball, he passively allowed himself to get boxed out. If he wants balls thrown to him he needs to make a better effort.

I think you're right to some degree, but Brady had to be mostly mad at himself since that was just an awful pass, at a poorly chosen moment, regardless of what the receiver was doing. A FG instead of the INT there and the Pats win without the panic, and Tommy knew that. It was the kind of mistake that, yech, Grossman would make.
More distrubing was Curran inferring after the game that Brady is ever so slightly beginning to remind him of the holy-than-thou late career Marino who was not well liked or respected because he was constantly griping at everyone. I can't see TB ever getting that bad, he's always been more humble than Marino, and I believe he remains so in the long run. He probably will pump up Tiquan in practice this week, and make them both feel better: "Love your hair, T. Think we could work Welker up like that"...etc.

As was said during 1/2 time of the Giants/Cowboys game.
Brady lost it, but it is just frustration. Brady is under a lot of pressure carrying this team. He almost has to throw for 500 yards and 5 to 6 TD's every game because our secondary sucks.
Giving up over 400 yds to Rex Grossman is pathetic.
this is the worst secondary I have seen the Patriots put on the field in years.
This Brady is under pressure crap is, well, crap.
Its his job to go out and move the ball and put up points. Every QB is under pressure in every game. The fact that he is 10-3 is a lot less pressure than if he were 6-7.

Caught a bad pass? How about all the great passes guys are dropping? How about all the game tying or go ahead drives that our defense blows? Brady is carrying this entire franchise, this isn't 2003 anymore.
Yes the same Welker who disappears in tight coverage, the same Welker who was average in Miami.
Hahaha, had to get a little laugh from hard nosed ex coach Brian Billicks take on it this morning saying (paraphrasing) that he didn't see anything wrong with it but you better make sure you don't go at your boss like that too often, and in this case Brady is the boss.
While I might not agree with Brady being the boss of Obrien it just kind of points out that you dont go at Brady like that. Listen, I don't mind Obrien getting on Brady but it's how he did it was totally unprofessional for him to do it that way (screaming, ripping his headphones off and then keep it going) to one of the best in the game. You just don't do that. If Brady needs that let BB be the one to do that not Bill OBrien for goodness sakes. This makes me wonder if OBriens ego is in check or not.
