    Always nice to see Brady get man handled and wilt. That's what happens when you get pressure and have a decent secondary. I would have love to see us smash them, but I think we're a couple needed spots yet filled from having been able to do that.

    Although I think with Brown and Williams back we would've out paced them.

    To be honest.

    He did drive them to that last score and threaded the needle on key fourth downs. I don't like him, but I had a feeling he was going to make it interesting with the amount of time they had left after Denver failed to convert and run the clock out. When was the last time we had that feeling?

    This game showed us why we need two dominant edge rushers

    I just missed the last half of the game because I was out shoveling snow. I HATE snow by the way, about as much as I hate the Patriots. I'm sooooo happy the Broncos beat them. To me, it makes last weeks loss a lot easier to take.

    Oh ok thought it we like the punt rule when touched by the D
    The offense guy can try to pick it up and run with no worry about making a mistake

    I mentioned earlier: Denver's secondary was depleted by that 4th quarter. Belichick knew it, which was why he kept being aggressive.

    Is intentional grounding still a penalty? Or does it just not get called against the EVIL empire?

    You play the players they put on the field. Not the Patriots fault Denver was "depleted"...I still saw Talib on the field. You do what the defense let's you do! That's why they've won as many games as they have and keep putting themselves in position to get to the SB!

    Yes! Their division sucks! They beat those teams and roll out of it with at least a 5-1 record year in and year out! If the Steelers go 4-2 or 5-1 in the division, then they're probably hosting a playoff game instead of headed to Denver.

    We don't have their defense, but with AB back we have WAY more offense.

    Cant tell you how happy I am that NE lost!!!

    I also think Belichick made a terrible decision not kicking the FG, theyd be going to the SB now, the TD would have won it for them.

    So, just icing on the cake for me :thumbs up:

    Yep the Broncos unwillingness to close it out on O by moving the ball kept giving him a chance... Glad their D came thru

    That assumption is quite possible the way Denver decided to play o lose on O with 5 to go

    Back up safety #20 messed up so bad on Gronks big reception on 4th and 10. They were playing deep safeties all day and he bit instead of playing back. Could have been another S goat, just like the Ravens game.

    Funny how once again brady doesn't look so "goat" when he can't stand in the pocket like a statue with no defender anywhere near him while he throws a 5 to 10 yard pass to a wide open guy.

    Patriots fans have always been arrogant and obnoxious, but when they bring someone's spouse and children into it the way they have in those tweets, that takes it to a whole other level of lowness. They disgust me. And then they wonder why the rest of the League's fans dislike them so much. Oh wait... we're just jealous. :rolleyes:

    Yes, but the same could be said of Tebow's throw to Thomas in overtime. You still have to make the throw and it was still a good catch by the Gronk as well. He wasn't wide open, the safety just gave him that 1/2 a step he needed.

    Have you ever seen such poor OL play from NE? Have you ever seen Tom Brady play so poorly?
