Just watched the game again on NFL replay and three things cost us this game:
1. Brady's inability to read the defense/get his blocking set up correctly.
2. Brady's inaccuracy. This one kills the most. Forget the early missed throws. On the last series, Brady threw wide of a WIDE OPEN...
Early thoughts....
How the hell did we lose this game?
