I'm nervous as phuck guys. We all are. This isn't good, this doesn't look like we've outplayed them in any way.


But let's all take a second to remember how we were feeling in 2 of our 3 playoff games last year...

At least during those games we were able to move the ball. I can't believe our best piece (offense) can't get their **** together.

It's truly sad how badly manning is outplaying brady. Brady looks on his last legs not manning. Broncos defense is too good to lose this game now.

Regardles I am not even that upset. I knew they pats were not winning in Denver.

On to September 2015.

Somewhere Goddell and his crew are sitting around smiling

Someone needs to make a massive game changing play otherwise it's hard to see the Pats winning.

Need to stop Denver in their first possession after the half and atleast get a FG when we get the ball back.

He hasn't been that good. threw a floater that should have been knocked down and had a td where he started inside the 20.

That's just sad. High priority upgrade in the offseason.

I think his injury has been bothering him more than let on all year. But I don't disagree, they need a real outside threat.

Quick observations:
#1 - Denver defense playing as advertised. Beating the O-line to Brady with 3 or 4 rushers, no blitzes!
#2 - Trying to establish the running game.. so-so, but, better than last week. O-line - Can they block and create holes at all?
#3 - Role reversals for Manning and Brady from last week. Manning playing like Brady did and Brady is playing poorly and his passing is inaccurate. Ya got to give props to the Denver defense, they are not giving him much time and their coverage downfield is making Brady hold onto the ball.
#4 - I won't go there!

We played better the first time injured. Needed the half to regroup and get the guys focused

Our D is playing well enough to win, but our O needs to come alive. Hopefully, halftime adjustments will do just that.

That's how the world is. We smile when Manning chokes, Pats haters smiles when we choke.

I don't want to hear the D complain about being on the field. They can make DEN go 3 and out and get off the field too

He's managed the game well enough, and done what's needed to be done. Brady, partially due to his OL and good coverage has made bad decisions and inaccurate throws.

Manning is playing better than I would have imagined...sadly.

A defensive turnover to start the half would be really nice!!!!!!

This place has been a juju for brady
Its crazy

Where are the screens and draws against an aggressive defense? Would help get White, Lafell, and Edelman into this game.

all good guys. Switched to my black brady jersey, which hasn't been worn since a momentum change was needed in the 3rd quarter of the SB last year.

You're welcome.

moved the ball better last time without jules, danny...unbelievable

Boy, HFA would have been nice......

Time to steal this game like they stole the last one from us!
