Anyone watch it on NFLN tonight?
I watched it again (first time since it happened), finally brought myself to watch it and still believe the offense lost us this game and not the defense. Anyways heres a few observations...
1. After the Colts offensive onslaught of 3 straight TDs, their next 3 possessions the D only gaveup 1 FG and the offense continually did not turn short fields into more than 3 points or even 0...Asking the D to stop manning that final time was not even fair as they were exhausted and had already comeup big in the 4th Q at that point. 71 yards total offense in the 2nd half before the final drive when they got 34...105 total, pretty pathetic...
2. Watching Brady try to make due with those WRs and RBs around him then was pretty painful compared to this year. Its night and day how easy playing QB is for him now compared to then. He used to have to make some incredible throws just to pickup 8 yards last year...
3. Our pass rush in the 4th Q was very good, if we get a lead in this game I like our chances to put some pressure on Manning with Sey, Green, Warren, Vrabel and Colvin...
4. For that game to even be close shows how much better a coach Belichick is than Dungy considering the disparity in talent level at that time...
