they gave the ball to maroney who wasnt doing shit, where were dillon and faulk who were runnign over the colts D. and also i agree Brady takes some of the blame, but they shouldnt have been in the situation if the patriots defense had stepped up
They were going against the best offense in the league, did you honestly think they were gonna be able to shut them down the whole game?
Dillion and Faulk were running over the Colts in the 1st half, not the 2nd, one of the plays that I thought helped turn the tide was the when the Pats were in the red zone and it was 3rd and short, and the Colts just completey stuffed Dillion, and the Pats had to kick a field goal instead of scoring a TD that put more pressure on the Colts, and Manning. other than Brady, the Pats Offense in the 2nd half was completey shut down, the thing that kept saving them was there returns on special teams.
