Bob kraft is dan marinoing tom brady.
I totally disagree with #1. Their QB had talent to pass to which is why he looked better
Statistically, this Denver team is good, but I think the Indy 05 and 06 teams had better weapons.
No, I've wanted to love Chandler Jones, but it's hard to get excited about him as our future on the edge. He's not clutch, and he doesn't dominate. He had one sack in the last five games IIRC.

01. The OL was average at best in another big playoff game.
02. There may be truth to the claim that Brady has developed a habit of seeing ghosts.
03. Brady was poor missing many open receivers today.
04. The receivers simply aren't good enough to win big playoff games.
05. The lack of run game was an egregious miscalculation on the behalf of McDaniels & BB.
06. The DL gets no pressure on Manning all game. The team needs pass rushers.
07. The DBs were poor all game.
08. Arrington is being overpaid by 3 million a year.
09. Talib isn't worth a big multi-year contract because you can't trust his health.
10. The better team won. I have no qualms accepting that.
That covers some of my thoughts. Out of all of that, the team was beaten by a better team today. I can't be down on this season as the Patriots overachieved and fought through some amazing adversity.
As good as the Patriots are, they have significant issues to address in the off season on both sides of the ball. It should be interesting to see it evolve.
Go Seattle.
Not true...our QB missed wide open recivers while their QB had pinpoint accuracy.
Except that Kraft has nothing to do with the contract negotiations for Free Agents. But, yet, Kraft is "Dan Marinoing" Tom Brady. BTW, They got Randy Moss. Remember him? How did that turn out? 1 Great season and a big nothing when the chips were down.
On 6/1/2013 you would have expected these players to be in the starting lineup for today’s game:
Considering the 10/22 anticipated starters on the team were not starting today I cannot be that disappointed to be honest. I am proud of the things this team overcame in order to make it to the AFC Championship game.
- RB – Ridley (played as #2 RB carried just 5 times)
- WR – Amendola (played as #3 WR and did not register a receptions)
- TE – Gronkowski
- TE – Hernandez
- RT – Vollmer
- DT – Kelly
- NT – Wilfork
- MLB – Spikes
- OLB – Mayo
- CB – Talib (he did start but left in the 2nd quarter and did not return)
1. There's no way this was anything except an excellent big-game performance by Manning, even though ...
2. ... a number of his throws were risky. In particular, I agree with the announcers that when Arrington is underneath in tight double coverage, he should at least TRY to make a play on the ball, and if he had in that case, an INT was likely.
3. That wasn't a bad performance by Brady, but it was another of those games where his accuracy was mortal.
4. It's scary how much difference Talib makes.
5. It was the white-smurf receiving corps. If Edelman goes in the offseason, Collie is very likely to be back. Even if he stays, it could happen.
The running game wasn't a complete no-show. That was on McDaniels. The Pats should have come out running the ball right down Denver's throat. Instead, they came out passing and letting Denver's defense dictate things.
He said legitimate.
