These mediots can say what that want, but there were four turnovers last night.. if a team commits four turnovers in a game they seldom win.

Some quick research shows that the probability of winning a game when your turnover margin (TOM) is -2 in any given game is about 22/23%. http://www.worldacademicunion.com/jo...o03paper03.pdf

Hopefully they are done with the TO's now.

This is what I thought about the Giants last year before the Superbowl when we lost in the regular season primarily due to a negative turnover margin. I thought no way would we do that again in the Superbowl and then the intentional grounding safety and interception came in the big game.

This time I'm not going to say it's unlikely for us to be in this situation again because it can.

So I just hope we are even better prepared for an even bigger comeback if necessary and we find ourselves in a similar ugly game next time around, even with a negative turnover differential. We were still in a position last night to put the game away. Even after the huge return. We could have kept them to 3. Even after they scored the touchdown, we could have played that last drive better.

I hope this comeback just gives them enough confidence, that yes it can be done, no matter what. Don't stop fighting.

Good point--Oh, and Talib did turn around to locate the ball. Turning around slowed him down though, and when he realized the ball was on its way, he sped up.

Trial by fire, its games like last night's that test a team's composure. This Patriots team is toughening up.
