Peter King: It smacked of I'm-smarter-than-they-are hubris
Bill Belichick made wrong call in Patriots-Colts game - Peter King - SI.com
i dont get this. is BB really thinking this or trying to make a call to win the game. Whether it was a right or wrong call i dont know about this crap about arrogance. Listening to mike and mike on espn they took king to task about these lines which was refreshing.. |

If it worked, it's EPIC WIN as far as knee-jerk reactions are concerned. if it didn't, it's EPIC FAIL. There really weren't any other possible outcomes. |

Not surprising..Peter King has his head up Manning's backside so far.. one can't see him...King is a smarmy hypoctite..who should be run out of Boston on the rails....The guy is just a national Borges...How can anyone believe any of what he writes, when his bias is so evident?? No surprise what he writes...

In all fairness to Peter King, he also has the Pats rated as his #3 team in the NFL, behind NO and Indy but ahead of Minnesota, Cincy and Pittsburgh. I'd probably rate the Pats #6 right now behind those 3 teams (I think we're better than the Steelers, but Pittsburgh has beaten Denver on the road whereas we lost, and beaten 8-1 Minnesota and 6-3 San Diego as well; right now we haven't beaten anyone with a record better than 5-4).

Do not get the arrogance angle, if it worked would that decision have been arrogant????

Peter is the King of kneejerk reactions. Every week. Every season.

it smacked of "let's try and win the game right now instead of giving peyton the ball with over a minute left." I wanted them to go for it and I could have sworn he got the first down

I read his MMQB and I don't understand King's position. I can see the 4th down call in SB42 or maybe a few others from the 07 season, but I don't see how King can make the case that BB went for it just because he wants to prove that he is smarter than anyone else.
