I could see if it was just one receiver but it was everybody. Fuck, that was just idiotic. They started the game like they never played football before and finished it with receivers who seemed to just refuse to make a catch.

I call that choking. lol

I felt so bad for them because you could tell they really wanted to pull off something wonderful there at the end, but they just sort of fell apart in those last seconds. One of the receivers started running before he actually caught the ball because he was so ready to take off and score - but that act made him drop the ball .... sad.

In case anyone has some leftover "wtf" Patriots energy. Here is a link to a game I play called quarterback-training. Tom Brady throwing to receivers who DO ocassionally catch the balls. Aim high. And, extra points if you hit the Eli Manning head targets which taunt you with nasties.

I understand choking when you have 58 seconds left in a game and you have 80 yards to go and your down by 5. What I don't get is how you choke when you have the lead, there is less than 3 minutes to go and you only have to get another first down and that's a wrap. Blowing that and giving the ball over is just refusing to win. It's going to be a long time before I get over that kind of really bad football.

I'm ready to see where P. Manning is gonna end up. I hope he makes a great come back with the new team and retires in awesomeness.. I'm kinda partial for the Dolphins to pick him up.

5 more months for football!

Whaaaaaa I am upset about Heinz Ward not being renewed with the Steelers. Thinking that nasty DUI after he won DWS has blemished him with the ball team owners.
