Watched Brady all through his career at Michigan, and when he gets a little rattled, he has a tendency to start yelling at his O’line (because he can’t scramble to save his life) and his receivers even on obvious overthrows. Go back and watch the game and you will see all of this. The play that stands out to me is his floater he tossed 20 yards over Welker’s head and then he starts jawing at Welker as if it was his fault. This is the same receiver that digs his passes out of the dirt, makes mid-air adjustments to passes grossly behind him and keeps drives alive with his league high YAC.
I think Brady was a little rattled, still played at a high level but I will offer you this, the Pats O’line is not getting any younger and I think Brady has reached his high water mark and I think you will see a noticable decline from here on out.
Sorry if you are a Pats fan, because I know how I hate people bashing my team, but I can’t understand how Brady gets a pass with his “Baby’s Daddy” antics and I think Bellickick will probably be running one of the levels of hell (either the 8th or 9th) when he dies.
I'm with you. My problem with the Pats is that I consider Brady a "low-life" for his personal life, and Belichek...well there's too much to say about where he's lacking as a person...yet the press never mentions these problems.
Post game interview w/Belichek...compare that to post game interviews w/Dungy when he's lost. Here's a description of Dungy after the Charger's game.
"When the end arrived, Tony Dungy chose to stay a few moments more. Not to reflect on a career, and not to soak up a final memory. With most of his players already running toward the offseason, Dungy remained on the field at the RCA Dome on Sunday afternoon to congratulate the San Diego Chargers."...from a St. Pete Times story.
Belicheck has "no class" and is an arrogant guy...that's why the humbling they took was well deserved.
OK, a little rattled. And his line maybe older, but they seemed to play pretty well the entire year and let Brady pocket pass to his heart's content, and set records doing it. The fact is the Giant's defense played an incredible game.
Sorry if you are a Pats fan,
LOL, I was around for the Dolphins perfect season and this year they have their worst year ever. The Hurricanes suffer their worst home loss ever in their last game at the Orange Bowl before Clinton witch Donna Shalala has it torn down. Of course I was pulling for the Giants against all odds.
