you really do have to question the coaching of the secondary. I don't know what is going on there.

We can't be drafting them that bad? Can we?

Bad decisions by BB and the entire coaching staff yesterday (and all season really)was the primary reason for the loss. Yeah the secondary sucked but Ebner and Wilson probably shouldn't have been in there in that situation. Seriously, what is a guy like ebner doing in there anyways? Hard hitter, good ST'er...but is LOST in secondary play. BB's decision making and secondary personnel selecting are giant question marks again this year.

I hated todays playcalling on both sides of the ball. Im losing faith in both coordinators

How in the world our DBs can't play the ball is beyond me. all wilson did was throw up a hail mary and hope that his WR will do the rest.

As someone mentioned in the other post, Matt Patricia and Josh Boyer is not cutting it and it is a disgrace if they still have a job.

BB hire RC when he is fired from KC or what the heck, hire some DC from outside and bring in fresh prespective. Stop the promoting from with in experiment RIGHT NOW

Look how Houston turned out when they hired Wade Phillips. Damn, this team could have reached new heights if we had a proper Defense in the past 5 years

OP might have a point, over the past 2 years, the secondary hasent been to training camp or practiced against an offense which throws deep.

Tom Brady rarely throws beyond 20 yards now unless the guy he is throwing to is wide open, some quarterbacks in this league can throw it 50 yards accurately.

it comes to a point where the cornerback doesn't have any experience past a certain yard line, they dont know where to look back for the ball, they don't practice against deep route coverage, i think it is actually a valid point.

Unless RAC comes with Rodney and Ty he's not changing a thing... And didn't Houston's vaunted D get blown up at home last night? Teams lose lots of games they shoulda won. Heck, I remember back when RAC and Charlie were here and that still happened...

That is true and that is a major problem. Brady over center with a RB in the backfield means run every time. It's ridiculous. Need to work in some pass plays with Brady over center and some run plays with Brady in shotgun.

AND THEY NEED TO COMMIT TO THE RUN AND KEEP POUNDING AWAY WITH IT.

Tom Brady attempting 58 passes on a beautiful sunny day is ridiculous.
On a rainy day like yesterday?? Mindboggling!!

The only rationale explanation for not using blitz packages is for fear of getting beat badly downfield when employed. Well, seeing as how the Pats are getting badly beat downfield anyhow, they might as well blitz. At least they might get to the QB more often so that he tosses the ball sooner and it goes INC or is INT.

I think they went light on the blitzing due to Wilson great ability to scramble out of the pocket. They didn't want to commit too many players crashing into the pocket, while Wilson does one of his bootleg moves and gets out there. No way Wilfork, Love, or even Spikes can match his speed.

Exactly, they should have learned from the Arizona game. It seems that this team changes their gameplan when they have a lead. Aaron Rodgers and the Packers last night played the whole game the same way - with the pedal to the metal - until the game was won. They didnt change at all when they had a big lead. Thats how you finish a football game.

Everyone is blaming the weak secondary for this loss. Lets face it, the defense is a weakness and the offense is a strength. Its the offense that didnt get the job done when they needed to. Their late passivity on offense in games is troubling and must be corrected.

Also, we need to value our time outs more. No excuse for not having them when we need them.
