ch19079 Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 ok, first off, i did not think we could beat New England. we never play well agenst them, and all this talk about bruschi just made it like some damn story tale. i can already see the NFL films thing 10 years from now about how he bravely did... bla bla bla.. ok, i know its a nice story, but was it really nessasary to mention him on EVERY defensive play. talk about what he did, where he was.... then go to commercial, only to have a little clip of him with "the hero song playing". then come back and talk about him while the pats are on offense. i mean come on. at first i didnt mind, but come on, i cant take 3 hours of that. the only good thing about it was that they didnt make us watch brady's feet , and listen to them get on their knees and brace for the money shot. also, i heard somethign that really ticked me off, on 3rd down, and 2, we did that toss option play. he got 3 yards and the first down. the damn announcer was like, "they only got 1 yard, they wasted that play. bad play call." bad call my ass, we got the 1st down. it cant be a bad call if we got the 1st down on 3rd down. as for the game, i felt we got very lucky in the first half. they had only, i think, 4 drives. 2 punts and 1 fumble. all that and we still only get 3 points at the half. with all we did, i felt we had to be up by atleast a few TD. it seemed we could consistantly complete the first down, but not when we crossed the 30. whats the point of driving 45 or 60 yards only to punt. McGahee consistantly got than 3 yards a carry. a few 10 yarders, but i expect him to get 4+ yards a carry. watching him getr 3 yards alost every time... was a little frustrating. i like our run first gameplan. setting up managable 3rd downs. the drop by Reed, fumble by Holcomb, and !@#$ed up punt return by Parrish cost us the game. we played well enough to win, but !@#$ed it up in the end. how the hell is clements going to give up that TD, or even that long pass play. i mean come on. he had a few great plays, only to completly !@#$ up the next. Shobel played great. the refs COMPLETLY screwed up that replay. (when all the announcers all say it will be overturned, it should be.) i was shocked to say the least. all in all, i think we showed can can play with the pats. they are not what they were due to injuries. we can still take this division. we just need to play a complete football game.
