Ghost choked, but the loss can't be blamed on him. The Pats didn't deserve to win.

McDaniels called a horrible game. How many times do the middle runs need to be stuffed before you change the game plan? Why did it take to the 2nd half before Welker became involved and you opened up the O? Are the Pats paying Gronk that huge salary to stay in and block the whole 1st half or to run the seems and score like he did in the 2nd half. Brady certainly didn't look his best until the 4th qtr. The O has a lot to work on.
 
What just happened? What Just happened? I'm literally shellshocked right now.
 
To me the big question is why did Belichick settle for a 40 yard field goal when they had 40 seconds on the clock to move the ball?

This, weve become a very complacent, very obvious team. We played awful the whole game, might actually be better to lose much as we did to Cleveland or Buffalo so this team can get the kick up
the arse it needs. Brady and the O were horrible
 
The officials gave the Pats a break too, with the incomplete pass on Fitz. But The Gost choked. it was a VERY WIDE right.

The ball wasn't straight up for the kick. I would put the blame on the holder
 
I'm disgusted with this team right now

We had a miracle win placed into the palm of our hands and then it just slipped out. Wow, what a terrible feeling to lose a game that would've felt so great to win.

Not to mention the false start and Holding call on Gronk. Thank you Danny woodhead for running that in for a TD. Even though it wasn't considered a TD in the end it still brought me 8 seconds of Joy.
 
Please stop blaming the refs you sound like whiners. They played like crap and deserved to lose this game. They need to really step up their game next week or they will get embarrassed. I hope Hernandez is not injured to badly.

They beat their opponent but for a horrible holding call. How is that deserving to lose?
 
Gostkowski deserves to be cut right now. I don't care about how many field goals he makes if he can't get the last one.
 
He had scads of time and a defense that was gutpunched because of the turnover. BB's strategy was awful. Still, it wouldn't have mattered if the refs hadn't blown that holding call.

When you are easily makable field goal distance and down by 2, you play it safe. You don't get extra credit in the standings for a TD. It was a 42 yard kick and that kick would have been wide left if the Pats kicked from 20 yards.

And you need to be slapped across the face and sat in the corner for the next 25 mins.
 
Stupidity?!? He did the right thing. They were down by two.

Definitely not the right thing. 42 yards is never a gimme, and when you have a CLEAR shot to get a TD, or at the VERY WORST get a few yards closer and make the kick <30 yards you take it. No excuse settling for a 42 yarder in that situation.

It was not the fault of any one person. Horrible decision by BB, horrible kick by Ghost, ticky tack call on Gronk, and everything that led up to it.

He is the best kicker on the squad. Who can we replace him with?

Smh.
 
Spikes did force the fumble (admittedly, AZ should have taken a knee). Pats did what they had to do to get back in.

Oh we did....... then why the F did we run "a very hot Brady" into the line 2 f'ing times with 40 seconds left, forcing our kicker into a "non-gimme" 43 yarder, when we could have, or should have, given him a much more manageable 23-33 yarder.

Pure crap game management on many levels.

I guess you're right. But that speaks more about the weakness of the FA kickers.

Because the Offense was mediocre for the other 50 minutes of the game. They were lucky to even be in a position to possibly win the game after the way they played.

There's a difference between playing it safe and just killing the clock. His decision there was horrible.
