well written!!

I agree about Ben - really thought he played pretty well considering the amount of pressure he constantly endured. For at least 2 days after the game, all I heard from supposed Steeler football fans was : "Brady is soooo awesome." IT WAS DRIVING ME INSANE!!!!!!! Put Brady behind our line for that game - Brady would have been lucky to go 10 for 43.

Great analogy to Maginto line! The D schema is bend dont break, give up the short passes, cause its hard to do it all the way done the field, take away deep stuff(hopefully ), quik scores, make em work for it. Fine, stats show it usually works but also leads to some too close for comfort 4Q rallies, ala last year. Here comes B&B Patriots, you know what they are going to do and they have dont it to u repeatly before. They can beat u with short passes just as sure as the sun will rise. Yet, as far I as I can tell u offer up the same D schema?? I would think its worth a shot, to jam there pipsqeak little receivers at the line, disrupt that quik route crap and like the writer says punish em repeatly. What, ur afraid there going to rack up more than 39 points? Maybe, jam is not practiced enough, bad excuse.

Dont like the Patsies, but u got to admire their coach, wish he was ours. Take away what they do best and attack their weakness, Gosh, DUH! Yet we offered up the same ole D schema which has been shredded multiple times before? There really was no better alternative?

If he was our HC he wouldnt give to shakes about BR and BA buddy thing, we would have a new OC.

Mr Palmer Sucks has excellent points all. I would like to add that the other insane part of Brady's success is that he has essentially faced the same scheme over and over--soft zones which he has eaten alive. You can literally replay all of the games with the exception of the first year in the AFC championship and not tell which game is which. It is like watching a rerun of the past ten years when they play. Perhap LeBeau could review the game film from the Ravens matchup with Brady and copy? And damn--get Gay off the field. He couldn't cover that big slow Gronokowski....
