Love to see the halftime adjustments by McDaniels.
 
Overall important to go into half time with the led... that was very important. But 6-3 is not where the Pats want to be.

Maye isn't playing badly... but 6/15 is super ugly. That is the reason they are not winning this game. Drops... coverage... throw aways... misses.... pressures.... All those things have contributed to that line.

But if the Pats offense wants to do ANYTHING they need to start completing passes... and it takes the whole unit.
 
McDaniels should call more Maye running plays in the 2nd half.
 
I think this Team comes out on fire after halftime. The rookies have a taste of playoff football now
 
DDMM may have his worst completion% of the year in the win tonite.

Low % better than Ints.
 
Why is collinsworth harping on about the "roughing the passer" aka hand brush his helmet, but not the 4th down spot change. Same outcome would have happened anyway and we'd have the ball back.

No mention of the intentional grounding that should have been called when Herbert threw to his tackle. Or the crazy number of LA O line holding no calls.
 
Good job Borregales!!!

Hope to see alot more of rham in half 2. Go with the hot hand

They will eventually get some points so we gotta figure things out offensively
 
Not sure why Collinsworth is focusing on the missed penalty and not the wrong call on forth down
Because, contrary to many, Collingsworth doesn't like the Pats. That is his modus operandi.
 
Need to find a rhythm and see everyone start making big plays.
 
Make some halftime adjustments
 
tilting the playing field in favor of san angeles?
I didn't really think of it til now, but let's just pretend the Chargers win this one for now. Here's your remaining playoff field:

- Seattle (West Coast)
- Los Angeles Rams (West Coast)
- Los Angeles Chargers (West Coast)
- San Francisco 49ers (West Coast)
- Denver Broncos (Mid-West)
- Chicago Bears (Mid-West)
- Buffalo Bills (East Coast)
- Pittsburgh/Houston (Southern/East Coast)

That's some overly heavy representation of the west coast, specifically southern California.
 
3 pts there was good but the offense will need to score TDs if we want to win this game
 
Love to see the halftime adjustments by McDaniels.
Adjustment: go back to what was working and RUN the ball. The Chargers have our receivers covered up which means we need some legit play action.
 
14-3 team with a potential MVP QB should be stomping the 7 seed at home in the wild card round
Well that’s gonna automatically bring up the schedule argument.
 
How is it possible that the referees get worse every year?

This has been the worst year by a mile for officiating. Its been blatantly and comically bad. Even with reviews they've gotten wrong consistently all year.
 
If we squeak this one out, we’re gonna dominate the next opponent. They just need to get the inexperience/nerves out the way..Credit to LA, tough defense.
 
Defense was amazing in that half. Considering we gave it up at the 10 and we only let up 3, great to see the defense step it up.
