Calls, penalties, execution...you can't really blame any of that because those things fluctuate team to team and week to week...
What you can blame is coaching. Plain and simple.
Belichick now seems almost defiant about going for it on fourth down even though he has cost his team two very important games by doing so (Indy & Miami).
Conventional wisdom and pigskin 101 common sense says on the road, you take the three. If he had, in both cases, we would have won, not to mention a perfect season in 2007.
And there are other coaching errors. Abandoning the running game with a lead and not firing Dean Pees a long forking time ago among them!
How long are we, as fans, supposed to keep putting on a happy face and saying, "In Bill We Trust!"
Our season is slipping away!
Why make this any more complicated than it is?
BB has been an arrogant, underachieving NFL head coach this season. Period. He is starting to remind less of our Hall of Fame chief and more of some Jerry Glanville clone, bent on shunning conventional wisdom under the guise that he somehow knows better, and losing everything, including his job, along the way!
Any Pop Warner coach/dad knows you take the three on the road. It is percentages. It is odds. It is simple, fundamental football 101, which is obviously WAY too rudimentary for our beloved El Tyrante.
We have four games left and we now have to win all four to win our division.
Quite frankly, we should pound the Panthers, Bills, Jags & Texans, but with Belichick under the headsets, this season, who the fork knows?
What once looked like a team that was a lock for 13-3, 12-4. now looks like one that could just as easily be 10-6 or 9-7.
Lost to the Dolphins? Are you shirting me?
