dang... i forgot he even played a game for usThis thread is TRIGGERING me about a certain Steven Jackson game in 2015 that was the most frustratingly stupid decision Belichick has ever made.
It was until the Super Bowl when they ran into a buzz saw or a Bears team that NOBODY was beating or even scoring on........... The very next day the Challenger blew up and people put things in perspective... it was just a game..
2 days later was the Challenger explosion...
and the bears were so dominant even Grogan's mom knew they were in for it in that game...
still didn't stop me from thinking (despite not being able to move the ball a single yard in the first series after the fumblerooski) "Hey we scored first! We got a shot at this! The team that scores first usually wins!"
then tony eason happened...
Yup, mea culpa, I forgot it was two days later.2 days later was the Challenger explosion...

well he was young and indy’s run D must’ve been greatSo I’ve been looking back at the 96 team since that is the team that ultimately made me love football.
Here’s a crazy thing I noticed from the game against INDY that year.
The Pats opened with two really long drives, one for 10 plays and one for 11 plays.
So that’s 21 plays of which 18 of them were rushes by Curtis Martin!
Nowadays I raise an eyebrow when a runner rushes it three plays in a row. Martin received 18 in the first 21 plays. 9 of the first 10 plays were handoffs to Martin.
what a workhorse!

right... couldn't move the ball one yard (or less) after the fumble...The game was over after Payton fumbled and the Patriots offense had to settle for the field goal 1 minute and 14 seconds into the game.
Then wasn't it during the very next drive that Don Blackmon dropped what in all likelihood would've been a Pick-6 inside da Bears' 30-yard-line?The game was over after Payton fumbled and the Patriots offense had to settle for the field goal 1 minute and 14 seconds into the game.
all i remembered was chris berman doing pats games recaps on bspnPeople forget he played for the Patriots, it seems.

The second pass by Eason to Stanley Morgan should have been caught... he had Singletary beat solid... easy td - a stroll to the goal - but butterfingers
Then very first pass McMahon threw on that second series... you got it Blackmon couldnt quite get it... he had a real good shot at the pick 6 no doubt about it... not cued up to the Blackmon play because you got to go to youtube to watch it, but the series starts at 7:34
