Watch the defense get blamed regardless of how well they played.
Brady gets blamed more than anyone for this loss and it's not even close. The offensive line played amazing, the defense kept them in the game and played well throughout, Brady ed up completely.
The game was over by the time they dropped key passes on that last drive.
Brady get's the lionshare of the blame with Welker close behind.
Brady only had 1 impressive game out of the 3, tbh, and the impressive game came against a Broncos team that was content to simply have made it as far as they did..
The Patriots defense was sufficient, in all 3 games, they easily exceeded any expectations..
Yup, the defense played very well especially since the Giants had the ball for 37 minutes and the Patriots offense couldn't stay on the field. You can't expect them to keep the Giants offense scoreless the entire 4th quarter.
I fully expect the defense to get blamed tomorrow even though Brady/Welker obviously were the main ups.
Branch and a couple of screw ups too.. where he should have sat in the passing window, but continued to run through it.
They were up and could've all but sealed the game when Welker inspired mono to have one of his legendary meltdowns.
I didn't see the replay of the Welker drop..was it a perfect pass?..
So the receivers being covered had nothing to do with it? He did everything within his capacity. The only up he had was trusting Gronkowski signaling he was open on the deep int
I'm no Brady fan but he was one dropped pass away from winning superbowl MVP.
Gronkowski was open when he signaled. The problem is Tom Brady's deep ball sucks royal and is always thrown behind the receiver.
Not perfect. It would have been a difficult catch, but he got both hands on the ball. At that point, I would say it goes on Welker to catch it in a Superbowl.
looked good enough. He was turned on the catch not sure if its welker or Brady's fault
Wasn't a perfect pass, but a pass any competent NFL receiver catches 99.99999999999999999999% of the time.
This is true.
Brady = system QB
he's nothing without BB, and BB easily wins 3+ SBs without Brady
He was falling down. The line broke down and the receivers weren't open. Unlike basketball, football depends on more variables... that play was great Giants defense and a bad decision on Gronk and Brady
I agree there, it's definitely something Welker should catch and any true #1 receiver would catch. It's also not like that was Brady's only opportunity to get separation from the Giants. He had multiple opportunities to make it a multi-possession game and failed on all of them.
The ball was thrown behind Gronk. He had a step on Blackburn or whatever his name is but Brady's deep pass always requires the receiver to come back for the ball and catch it over the guy he blew by in coverage.
What do you mean system QB? You play to the system your coach uses... that has to be one of the dumbest terms I've ever heard... and then you imply it to Tom Brady? Please stop talking.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not stupid enough to think Brady is a system QB (and it really doesn't make sense to think that when BB has a below .500 record w/o Brady), but his deep ball has always been unreliable and horrible. Deep ball receivers not named Randy Moss have always clicked horribly with Brady.
I digress... that goes entirely on Brady. Gronkowski is less than 100 percent, you're falling backwards with a non-dominant deep ball... very dumb idea to try and make something spectacular out of a doomed play.
I agree with the deep ball thing.
Sarcasm?
meaning product of BB's system. meaning he is the beneficiary of a better offensive scheme, meaning he doesn't make the offense go, he just follows the plan and makes the throws he's supposed to.
BB needs to get a new QB tbh
