Bedard was on D&C today, and he was talking about the coverage calls putting DBs (specifically Arrington on the first Smith TD) in a no-win situation. He said in the modern NFL it is folly to ask a CB to play "5-yard man". It's not 1985.

looks like bad drafting rather than bad coaching
New England does NOT have a coaching problem. It has an execution problem.
Coaches don't take the field. Players do.

Pass Rush deserves some of the blame.
Where was Ninkovich all game?
Actually, where has Ninkovich been all season?!?!
I put a big part of the blame on the coaches.
The biggest issue I see is the corners don't play the ball, but play the receiver. I can't tell you how many times I have screamed at the TV yelling turn and look at the ball. I bet if I chart every game the past 5 years, I will find a game where a corner either took a penalty or got beat because of face guarding, or just losing track of the ball. It happened quite a few times in the Tennesse game, and we were lucky we didn't have the real refs, because they would have been flagged every time and the game would have been a lot closer.
That has to be coaching. When I played corner for a year in High School our coaches drilled in our head to play the ball, and for the life of me I can't figure out why the Pat coaches are not doing the same thing.

By all means lets fire the whole coaching staff because we are going to judge everyone by the last game. Man, I lnow fans can be fickle but can we get through the next 13 games before declaring this season a disaster.
Yes, exactly. We should fire the whole coaching staff.
There should be a strawman emoticon here....
