I guess someone on CSN here in Boston, Suggs said "they haven't won since spygate" but he calms down and says "no BS they are a hell of a team"
Why is the entire NFL Network crew acting like a bunch of sad MFers? Deion, Faulk, and Irvin are either zooted or sad right now. I don't get it.
So Atlanta and New England, both home teams, scored 0 total second half points? Crazy weekend and ever since we got past WC weekend, crazy NFL playoffs
Isn't it time the NFL media stopped with the Brady love fest and realized that he is NOT a good post season QB. Since beating the Eagles in the SB in January 2005, he is a Peytonesque 8-7 in playoff games with zero SB titles. He is 3-5 in his last 8 playoff games, all of which have been played at home or a neutral field and the Pats have been prohibitive favorites in all 8 of those games. Plus, he is coming up small in these games. He played poorly in the two SB losses to the Giants, the loss to Baltimore in 2009, the loss to the Jets in 2010, and the win against Baltimore in the AFC title game last year. He was not very good today either, barely completing 50% of his passes and throwing two picks. The comparisons to Montana are a joke. Brady is a playoff compiler, not a playoff winner. Since 2004, the Pats are football's equivalent of the Atlanta Braves of the 1990's. Division titles by the bushel, but no championships to show for it. If Brady were losing to teams that were better, like Elway did early in his career, that would be one thing, but he loses year after year to teams that the Pats should beat at home. Take the tuck rule play away in 2001 and John Fox's inexplicable decisions to attempt two point conversions in 2003, and Brady is left with one SB title. Plus the Pats of the early 2000's won more with defense than with Brady. Can anyone say overrated?????
He's not overrated, as I said in the other thread, we overrate W/L and assign them to QBs only when that just isn't accurate. He's a very good QB and you can't throw out his whole regular season and say he is overrated. One of the greatest QBs all time.
Troy Brown agrees that once you win you can say anything, says they the Patriots did it all the time, Ravens are allowed to speak and talk all they want. REally like Brown as an analyst when I switch to CSN

Fun part for the Pats, if my information is correct and i'm 99% certain it is, they only have a first, 2nd, 3rd and 2 7th round picks this year.
Watching replay, Boldin scored that TD to make it 21, and he used both hands to point at McCourty and laughed and smiled real loudly.
Yeah and Shannon Sharpe nails it, "It makes it easy to root against the Patriots". And Bernard Pollard, man's one goal is to ruin the Patriots.
Bullshit. He's a product of Charlie Wiess system institutionalized. Most of his throws are under 10 yards and/or in between the numbers EXCEPT when he had Randy moss...you know..the guy that made Chad Pennington look like he had an arm? You'll be loving Nacho next year.
