With respect to the timeout before the 4th down play. One of the media blogs (Extra Points, I think) said that the TO was called because some members of the...
Several things took place on our last possession and even I have some hindsight so I thought I'd try to break down some of my perspectives on the various...
According to various blog posts covering this morning's press conference BB said he decided to go for it after the 3rd down failure. I know he has more...
You shouldn't have. I don't even know if it was that bad a decision, and there are quite a few others that feel that way. Anyway, back to topic ... it'll be...
No, Mr. Rodrigues, I am not sure what motivates a man who has always been as smart as Mr. Belichick. It just seemed like such a crazy decision that it made me...
I think this comment from elsewhere has it correctly: This is something that no-one's talking about. Belichick (or Pees) also deserves blame for another...
I have never in my life seen a sporting event as exciting as the game I watched last night! It was a shame it had to end in our defeat. I must wonder why Mr....
Wasn't too long ago that the Pats offense could sustain drives taking 8-12 minutes regularly. Since Randy Moss came aboard that has changed and scoring drives...

Watch ONE game after recording it. Don't watch it live. Wait. Find out the score before you watch it. If you watch just one game knowing whether OUR team...
Knowing that he was going to go for it on 4th down, the 3rd-and-2 play should have been a run. It would have eliminated the two minute warning as a clock...
Well, I agreed with going for it deep in Dolphins territory last week. I didn't think it was a great idea here. I'd rather make Manning work to get down the...
http://fifthdown.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/11/16/defending-belichicks-fourth-down-decision/ As for people asking about why more prevent later in the game, they...
The Collie PI penalty covered 31 yards, and Coach Belichick will never say if he thought there was another PI penalty or two in store. The 2006 and 2007...
While I would have punted, it was obvious that the Patriot defense was gassed. Be it 30 yards or 70 or 80 yards, the Colts probably still score with less than...

It's late and I'm off to bed but I agreed with the fourth and 2 call then...and now. Go Pats! Zip ... From: "George" <patswingr@...> To:...
Absolutely the worst coaching job that Bill Belichick has EVER done, anywhere, anytime. HOW THE F*** CAN YOU NOT PUNT THE BALL IN THAT SITUATION?! Not to...
... Because the ball was snapped before the 2 minute warning, only the Pats or Colts could challenge it. But because NE was out of timeouts due to their...
Ultimately, BB will be criticized for the call to go fo it on 4th down. However, the Patriots prevent defense, prevented them from winning this game. The...
How can you not punt there? Do you distrust your D that badly? Not to mention the absolutely terrible clock and timeout management that left you unable to...
WTF???? How do you not punt in that situation? I don't know what else to say. _________________________________________________________________ Windows 7: I...
The Patriots also placed rookie WR Brandon Tate (knee) on season-ending injured reserve and signed former Cowboys WR Isaiah Stanback from the practice squad." ...
Good Sammy is getting close. Too bad about Tate. Is that the same knee that he tore up in college? Harry At 04:22 AM 11/15/2009 +0000, you wrote: The latest...

<Randy> Great information to hear the Pats coverred Henne as a receiver, I wonder how they decided who would draw that assignment on each play and sure hope...
A couple of years ago, Tony Dungy screwed around this clock management tool in back to back games. He got burned when Adam Vinatieri missed from 29 a field...
The challenge in facing the Colts is that they, much like our Patriots, have so many buttons they can push to move their offense. That's why Dan Pees has said...
