Message: [QUOTE="NineOneSeven, post: 2065216, member: 871"] Basically what happened was this- Atlanta had to actually do everything they could to lose the game, and they did. It was a remarkable collapse. Was there any person in the entire country who didn't think NE would tie the game if they got the ball back down 1 score? Was there any person in the entire country who didn't think NE would win if they got ball first in OT? This is what happens when the little things like running for a yard or simply not LOSING 12 YARDS are somehow overlooked. There was absolutely nothing the coaches needed to pull from their playbook once that game went to the 4th quarter. Just use logic. Understand who you are playing, understand the cost/benefit associated with calling certain plays, understand your RB had been having big runs all game, understand you have the most physically gifted wide-out in the league (who should have won them the game). And they failed. [/QUOTE]
