First, he says the O-line and D-line got pushed around. Then in the next sentence he wonders whether the Pats are just "old and tired."
Anyone with a passing knowledge of the game would have to know that the Pats' OL and DL are very young, with Matt Light (maybe) the only one not in his 20s.
I fail to see how their lines getting dominated has any relation to the team being old.
In fact, I'm getting sick of this rationale, because it's just not true - Yes, our D has 3 old guys on it. Our O has zero old guys (one if you count K. Brady). So that's three old guys total. Is that really more than average???
