I have lived through a lot in the past 40 years of rooting for the Pats; but this was just horrible. The end of the game I was just sitting there going - this is NOT a Patriots team I recognize.
The #1 offense MY AZZ!!!!! - 17 freakin pts in regulation and 3 of those in the last 90 secs against a PREVENT[-YOURSELF-FROM-WINNING] defense 3 man rush.
Hernandez couldn't hold a block on running plays to save his butt and couldnt catch anything that wasnt laid like a lollipop to him.
Mr acrobatic (Lloyd) dropped more balls that brady put ON TARGET to him than I can count; ok maybe was only 3 or 4; but that is only cause they had to pull him and put Branch in cause TB couldn't trust him anymore.
The D hardly laid a glove on Sanchize the entire game until the 4Q. and then he started hitting trifectas on us. They showed the graphic at one point in the 4th season avg 167 or so pass yd per game - today 270+ and that was before the end of the 4Q and OT.
Even the Run D was getting gashed for at least 2-4 yds on every play for a while.
But that is nothing compared to the pass D. Great switch moving McC to safety - now the S is no longer the SEIVE but instead we have arrington playing CB. God help us. How many did he give up today. To think I used to like him. And the # of PIs. Hell in the OT they have shown that they have gotten such a bad rap that all the O wr has to do is run right at the DB. The ref will give you a 5 yd 1st down because 'those Pats are always holding'. At one point in Zone coverage they showed the overhead and they said it "EVERYBODY IS OPEN". God help us. Either they cover and give up a PI or they let them run wild and get 20+ yards.
Thank god that Ghost at least didn't freak up a makeable kick like vs Az.
This game very easily could have gone the other way; AND IT NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN CLOSE.
Maybe I am just lit up here at 2 am cause of deciding to get drunk mid-way thorugh the 4Q. But this team is really starting to PEE ME OFF.

Sorry but I just dont get it. This team has more talent and better coaching than this. Apologies to all for the rant - I am grateful for the win; but up til now I really thought we were a top tier team. After that debacle (AT HOME NO LESS); I just dont see this team making it come January. There is a long season left; and maybe they can MORPH between now and then; but right now this is PUTRID and again I DONT KNOW WHY they have all the pieces (I thought).

Holy ***** - what a pile a unfettered horse***** this thread is.
You are appealing to Mr kraft about the 'product'?
You need a reality check - we are the most successful franchise of the last decade, you miserable individual.

Re: Is this the worst tasting win in your memory??
A win is a win, did the SB winning teams never play in such close games?
I really wish the 16-0 season never would have happened, ppl here expect this team to bull doze over their opponents every time,
We arent playing against high schoolers they too are NFL teams
So if u arent satisfied with this win does that mean u were partying all night in joy after the Ravens loss? I mean after all we were the better team that night
Re: Is this the worst tasting win in your memory??
All we heard last week is that they can't win the close game. Yeah, it wasn't the best perfomance on the field for most of the game, but when it was the 4th quarter and we needed a drive and 3 points, we got it. When we needed to drive down the field in overtime, we did it. When we needed a HUGE defensive play, we got it.
