The game is in large part on Brady, but for god sakes will Belichick stop being in denial? Our secondary is beyond horrible. It is garbage like I've never seen before.

The more the media and we moan about it ,the more BB will try to save face and not admit he is wrong

Dear Mr. Belichick -

With only 6 games under our belts it's pretty clear we are yet again in full "well let's just make Tom win the game mode." You made your bones as a defensive coach. Shameful.

Loyal but disappointed fan.

You can't leave as many points on the field as the Pats did and expect to win. Letting time run out in the first half and red zone carelessness killed them. Didn't deserve to win this game.

It wasn't the O. They were against a top D. It was our D against the #28 O in the league. Our secondary made a rookie QB look like Peyton Manning!

condolences guys

#1 D wins the matchup but it was more about points the pats O left on the field and a bad NE secondary

maybe NE makes a trade before the deadline, or has it already passed

Thanks man....you are a classy guy have to say that.....this one stings and kind of gives us a reality check that with the holes that we have right now just can't compete this year. Brady just hasn't been the same in winning the big games when it counts for quite awhile now. Belichick is INCAPABLE of fielding a decent secondary. His coaching skills (clock management, risk and reward playcalling) just aint what it used to be.

8 years without a Superbowl win. Now they are 3-3 with the #1 easiest schedule in the league.

If this was any other team, we would all be saying their QB was washed up.

Nice secondary Bill. As per usual.

They need to take care of business in the AFC East, it's pretty wide open...

I always try and be positive, but what a load of bollocks!

I know the Hawks D is good, but their O isn't, and our D made them look out of this world!

I usually try and stay positive, but seriously, that was shocking! D couldn't cover a receiver if their lives depended on it!

Who is coaching the D? Because it isn't f***king working!

This team put up more than enough points to beat that offense.

If you want to find a goat, look to the secondary. Letting Rice behind the safeties was ridiculous.

Absolutely, but there's plenty of blame to go around. Sucks, but I'm not going to start panicking until the Patriots start losing division games.

He is effectively done, this is no time for Belichick to get sentimental, move him while they can still get something for him, I'm just not even sure Brady cares that much anymore

and who might you have in mind? he had a bad game, it happens.

Not capitalizing on that gimme FG at the end of the first half is critical to this loss. TERRIBLE time management, we should have had a double digit lead going into halftime. Should have just kicked the Figgie on 3rd down instead of cutting it so close that a misplay ended the half.

And now I get to hear DA say I told you so tomorrow on the radio.

I put this one on Brady more than anyone else. He was just off after a great start. He blew the last drive in the first half and was off the entire second half.

Sorry, Rob, I can't agree with you. Brady didn't blow the last drive in the first half. The Ref who didn't blow the defensive holding when Branch tried to cut across the middle is responsible for that one.

In the second half, the team had several drops, but the calls the refs were making were BS. Yet they weren't calling it on Seattle. It was ludicrous. And the drop by Hernandez on the last drive has to be solely on Hernandez. Not Brady.

**** you Tom Brady.Gave away 6 points with your stupidity and that is the difference between a win and loss.

Pathetic.

This team needs a real franchise quarterback.

I blame McDaniels.

It was his fault.

Too much blame to go around from BB down to Mesko. This is a pathetic team loss. The sad thing is that I've come to expect this from a Patriot's team these days. They can't finish. The likes of Rodney Harrison and Tedy Bruschi left Foxboro a long time ago.

All you McDaniel's lovers can kiss my backside. He cannot call a game in crunch time. This is totally on the O and their pathetic play calling.

Brady throws a soft pass instead a missle to Welker, we have first and goal at the 1, instead of an INT.

Brady doesn't get two intentional grounding penalties, we have at least 3 more points.

This is on Brady and the secondary. I hope they hear all the criticism they deserve.

6 seconds left in the first half ahead by 7 with Seattle getting the ball back in the start of the 3rd quarter.......

Common sense says kick the FG with seconds left and take the easy 3 and go ahead by 10 rather than gambling against the top ranked defense on a sack or INT.

That was a simply dumbass decision and in the end was the difference in the loss.

I knew that FG opportunity lost would come back and haunt them. Haunted me all second half. I get really annoyed at the arrogance. Six seconds left and no time outs you painted yourself into a corner there and wouldn't admit it and take the points.

And aside from Woodhead, so much for the running game. The point is to be able to run to win and we couldn't do it yet again. Aside from ST, is there a reason Vereen is active?? Because he appears to be the 4th RB and one they are thoroughly reluctant to tap.

Hope Lloyd isn't done for a while.

I am amazed. After six weeks, this team could just as easily be 6-0 as 3-3.
