Brady and the offense had to score 30 second half points

[festy1986]

Just to win by 1 point.

Look at that perspective. Sure they weren't perfect in the first half.

But that is an unreasonable task to expect from anyone. Period.

Bill and the defense let them down

The way the offense let the 07 team down.

Just sad

...in the 3 SB loses Brady brought his team back to lead. In all 3 loses the D didn't hold. Brady is ridiculous!!! He's a freak of nature!

 

[sambam94]

yup..too much to ask

No other team has scored 33 or more points in the Super Bowl and lost. And that is with the kicking crew leaving another 4 points off the board.

Offense should get zero blame for the loss.

the eagles learned from the falcons last year not to play it safe with the lead.

Game was lost when we finally took the lead and the eagles had a 3rd and 6 and the defense gave up another 3rd down. The rest is history.

wow!!!!

Is the offense so bad now that we should give-up when they need a TD to win the game, and have over 2 minutes left?

I don't think we lose the game if butler's playing. We would get some of those stops on 3rd down.

BB defense is a complete joke

 

[TBR]

The greatest QB of all time is playing for pennies on the dollar and puts the team on his back to the surprise of nobody. We all expected him to be Godly in that 2nd half. He delivered several incredible, totally dominant drives. It was a treat to watch.

Yet with all the extra cap space he's afforded the team, he's insulted with a defense that can't force a measly 2 punts all game - or a single second half stop. Not to mention how he allows the team to draft heavy on defense in the higher rounds, since he's capable of turning late round WRs & castoffs into legit weapons.

Eagles gave a hell of a game. Solid play calling throughout and they went 60 minutes.

What you talking about? They went on to bleed the block the rest of the way even going for it on 4th and 1. If we would have jumped on them i feel we would have won the game. Also take into account how long that drive was. The eagles defense was re energized
