Maybe it's time for you-know-what.
I'm thinking your real name is Ron Borges or your a devious little troll.

Not O'Brien's best game, but, the team has overachieved this year.
The only thing I can figure was running the clock down would give NE exactly enough time to run enough time off and still score again, so the Jets couldn't get another opportunity.
Overachieved in regular season, but certainly not playoffs. That looked like an Indy Colts special out there, circa 2003.
The punt fake was an act of desperation and had to mean that BB thought his young team needed a momentum boost after getting punched hard, because otherwise there was no reason to do it.
That's BB at his best.
Turns out right, he looks like a genius.
Turns out wrong, we're puzzled.
Jets talked the talk and came to play unlike the Patriots. I hope the Jets embarrass them even more during post game interviews, they deserve it.
I disagree with all the *****ing about running the ball in the 4th quarter. They were moving the ball, Jets were playing the pass and had WRS covered all night. They were getting junks running the ball and they were moving down the field. There was over 7:00 minutes left. All they needed was a score, any score. Does it really matter if you are down by 1 score with 5-6 minutes left or 8?
The failure was not getting into FG range from the 32 yard line on a 3rd and 13. Pats just needed a dump off and kick a FG. The incomplete forced them to go for it on 4th and 13 because a 52 yard FG was out of kicker's range. That was the game right there. Time management was not an issue..they needed points...
The playcalling on that last drive was absolutely dreadful. Six minutes left, down two scores, and we're running the ball despite the head coach screaming at him on the sidelines to throw. Furthermore, we have a 6'7" match-up issue of a TE and we're using him to block even though the Jets are playing man and dropping one safety into the box. On top of that, Gronk frequently had nobody to block and was left just standing there. O'Brien had an excellent year. He had a horrible second half today.
On top of that, does anybody still want to make an argument for why we don't need to improve our interior blocking (specifically C and RG)? The Jets were getting pressure up the middle all day and that man was typically being blocked by Koppen or Connolly.
I don't think anybody needs to be fired, but a soul searching needs to be done by the coaching staff. This was absolutely terrible from start to finish and BB is as much to blame for it as O'Brien and the rest of the coaching staff. If we're going to give Belichick all the credit when things are going good, he needs to get an equal amount of the blame when things are going bad and the coaching staffs' *******s are puckering up.
I really can't understand what happened on that drive, did they read the score board backwards? And kontra, are you saying BB was yelling at him to pass? That's really odd if BOB went against that. Not sure what to think.

The only thing that would make me smile this week is knowing that Bill O'Brien is standing in the unemployment line.
Hi Josh, it's Bill, want a job?
