I refuse to ever dump on Belichick, Brady or Edelman. After what they have brought us, they have built up an eternity of good will from me. You can’t take the good, of which there has been an insane amount without some bad too. Edelman dropped a key pass, but he was also directly responsible for three SB’s so he gets a pass from me.
Edelman is a friggin trooper just being out there, he was like a walking hospital ward and still performing. No way I blame this on him.
This year was weird. The Boogeymen were fun to watch at the beginning of the season but the offense has just been painful to watch all season. Many of the games have not been fun because you just felt constantly like they were not living up to their potential.
I don’t buy into the AB Cult and I don’t think our receivers were that horrible. I think Harry has a future and a couple of the others seemed under utilized.
Brady looked off several times this year although early on the offensive line was a nightmare. He played better tonight, but there was even one key play where they rushed 3 and got pressure and when you have that you just have to say WTF.
I don’t know if it’s McDaniels, Brady or the receivers but all I know is it didn’t work. It seemed like they were on the verge of getting their act together a few times and then it just fell apart again.
We are spoiled rotten as fans, 31 other fan bases would trade places with us in a heart beat. But even the Patriots can’t win them all, no one can.
As long as we have Belichick, I will have faith. I’m sure everyone will crap all over him as well but anyone who does is just a complete and utter moron. They should be kissing the ground he walks on for the joy he has brought us. But in this day and age people are so fickle. There are many who don’t deserve this team. For the rest of us it’s been a great run and I think it continues next year.
