So, what you're basically saying is that because they are absolute superstars, and have set an incredibly high bar---going in for your 4th offensive TD and 28 pts on 2nd and goal isn't good enough any more?
So, in order for this team to win, Brady not only has to play through pain in various areas, throw for 350+, hit Moss on deep balls, establish a #3 WR for sufficient action + a long TD, scramble through a patchwork line, throw to Welker 10 times a game to get his touches/yards, score 3 offensive TD's, control the clock....but he has to do it better. I see now.
So, when we get our #3 WR in the game, etc, still throw deep to Moss, have the game centralized around Welker, etc, and are going in for the 4TH offensive TD of the game.....we just have to do it better.
So, Moss needed to catch several long TD passes then, Brady had to throw for 450+, and Aiken had to become Reggie Wayne overnight for all of Patriot Nation to be satisfied with the offensive production. I am beginning to understand everyone's POV now.
So, If you're O'Brien/BB--what would you suggest that this almighty juggernaught of an offense do then to improve?
Maybe you have to consider the fact that our standards are getting ridiculously out of control, because I think a lot of teams would've been pretty happy to have been going in for their 4th offensive TD of the day, on the road against a good D. Oh yeah, with an injured QB, patchwork line, and all on a shortened week when your team is coming off a disabling loss.
Expecting the team toscore touchdowns in the second half is not out of control expectations. I don't particularly care if Brady throws for 400 yards if we can't score a TD after halftime.
