    I concur.


    This game could have been a lot worse and could be closer.


    Either way, time for some corrections.

    Still makes zero sense to play zone defense against an offense built to play against zone. Our pass rush isn't strong enough for it.

    I haven't seen DHB.. why the hell is coates still dressing at this point, let alone running routes and returning kicks? Especially when Ayers has been productive.

    They've been coached their

    For that to work your OL has to get some push. Ours was getting pushed backwards

    Our corners are not Denver's vaunted "No Fly Zone" either.

    Single high safety and send the house, obviously the zone ain't working, or at least the slow down approach doesn't work when you are behind

    That's what I've been saying, we took their best shot and everything that could go wrong DID go wrong and we are still right there in this game. Looks like we may be the better team.

    What is the deal with always playing the Patriots scared. I'm so sick of it....

    Patriots get wide open TDs and we are too scared to sneak it in with Ben at the 1 foot mark.

    Come on! We should be playing for the lead and not just a tie.

    Defense needs to get the calls in earlier and they need to settle down, they are reacting. That is not good, they need to be dictating.

    YOU know, just watched the replay of where Bell got hurt. I swear it looks like the Patriot player comes in from behind and punches him in the nuts.

    Haley needs to go. I don't care if steelers win this game and the SB, he needs to go.

    Sure looked like they NE sent everyone directly to the hole the plays were designed to attack on that goalline stand.

    Completely agree don't understand why we're not playing man and zone. Letting a player like Hogan beat us is ridiculous.

    You can't, its all built in.
    They probably also cut the oxygen level down too in the visitor's locker room.

    We'll get the ball.
    Any score (FG or TD) would be good.

    After that, the key NE drive: we need to stop them quick, 3&out, or create a NE turnover. That could move the game to our side.

    I'm fine with the run on 1st to make em burn a timeout but you have to run play action on 2nd. Touchdown or 3rd and 1. I feel much better at 13 or 14 - 17. But we feel good because we actually get the ball at half.
