Default Tom Brady played great

The INT aside (which was a ridiculous catch by a linebacker who had concentration like a WR to make the play) he had 2 TD's and nearly 300 yards, if the run game wants to play whack and the D want to let things slip away time after time letting 30+ yard plays beat them all season that's not Brady's fault is it?

He played good Eli played good but the Giants receivers made plays and Wes couldn't make THE play that kills the game.

I'm sorry, I just can't agree with this. Not when the two mistakes he made were so devastating in so many ways.

Except for the two drives, he was pretty mediocre. You must be watching another game.

When the game was on the line Eli outplayed Brady. Again. A little lower to Welker and in front of Branch, and we likely win the game.

How so? The INT was inside their 10 yard line and to his best reciever that was dinged up and is a TE not a deep threat. Just because he threw it does that mean the D should automatically go and give up points??

Brady played bad in both SB's we lost.
We score 20+ and have 2 more rings.
Be real!

He just lobbed it up to his star tight end whom he must know is running on a deep pattern on one leg. The badly underthrown ball is then intercepted by the Giant's version of the Hurricane's Colin McCarthy: an inside linebacker so bad, it's only the relative competent talent around him that prevents him from being utterly exposed all game long (notice how he was roasted to a crisp on Hernandez's TD). That, in addition to the terrible, godawful, atrocious grounding for a safety, were certainly significant contributing factors in today's loss.

For portions of the game, Brady was masterful. Unfortunately, a few, consequential moments of ineptitude spoiled his overall brilliance.

It's about knowing the moment. If Brady just stays patient and puts together a surgical drive at SOME point after their opening drive in the second half, they win the game. Instead of heaving it in hopes that his CRIPPLED TE catches the ball? Come on. I don't care that some schmuck was covering; it's just a needless risk for that situation.

The thing that sticks is Brady made the same mistake virtually against Baltimore, and here he goes and does it again.

And let's be honest, the safety was just plain dumb. And maybe without it, the Giants don't even SCORE in the 1st half.

Brady played okay, but not good enough, and his mistakes caused huge turns of the tide in the Giants favor.

Why don't you blame special teams for backing Brady in his own endzone every single time? Did Mesko have 1 good punt to make them struggle, no he sucked.

What? What does Mesko have to do with Brady being deep? Mesko was fine, and the LAST thing wrong in this game.
