The SB showed that we need a power back. Could have used some Blount Force Trauma.
HUH?? The running game had nothing to do with the loss in the SB..
One of Lewis' beefs is that he felt that the Patriots didn't use him enough in the SB. With him being the best weapon out of the backfield and only getting 28% of the snaps, that would give credence to his belief. What was mind-boggling to me is that in the short-yardage situations during the SB, the Pats went to White, running the ball up the middle.. Which has never been White's strong suit..
In all honesty, the play call for a pass on 2-2 from the NE 33 was what killed the Pats. Had they run the ball with Lewis there, Brady doesn't get sacked and the Eagles aren't able to put up 9 consecutive points.
