Semi-OT: You can lead a horse to water...

QuantumMechanic · Sep 29, 2015

I saw this on the internet today. Anyone know if it's true? It's referring to NE beating SD in the 2006 Divisional when Marlon McCree failed to go down with the game-clinching INT and was stripped by Troy Brown.

NFL Films has aired footage of Marty during practices that week, explicitly instructing his DBs to just fall on the ball if they make the game-clinching interception in the 4th quarter. He prepared them for that exact scenario, gave them exactly the right instructions, and he still gets blamed for that loss.

The Patriots KNEW that the Chargers would do the opposite. Cheaters!!

That Chargers team had a bunch of front-running hot dogs.

You know it's a smart bunch when you have to do that drill to begin with.

And now SD is going to lose their team cause of it.

Complanian Tomlinson....Wasn't he the guy who said "The Chargers would beat the Pat's nine out of ten games?

Yup, I have heard that as well. Marty also did not throw his players under the bus after that either.
