That was pretty whtie trashy, but what do you expect from the Patriots? That was probably the worst playoff game I've seen since i started watching football. holy shit, the Broncos decided not to show up in any way shape or form.

They didn't deserve to be there in the first place.
What do you want the Pats to do, give them pity touchdowns? In what way were the Patriots trashy? They stopped playing in the 3rd quarter.Quote:

I think the Patriots' front office figured this out in a big way, and they're really the first team to have two of that type.
The trashy comment was only in regards to the punt, and mainly because he had this look on his face that just made him look like a huge douche bag (grinning ear to ear like haha did you just see what I did). My real problem with the game is that Denver could have beaten them last time they played, and sure homefield advantage; but that was so awful. Just awful game on the Broncos part.Quote:

In large part because of awful mistakes on their parts, that game could have been completely different if a guy didn't muff TWO punts. The 2nd quarter had a lot of turnovers, and I don't even think I remember the fumble requiring a lot of effort. I'm not saying it's an excuse for them to have lost; just that It could have at least been a game this week, but it wasn't. It was just awful.
It's all about the match ups, and the Patriots are a terrible match up for the Broncos. The Ravens would have been a better one, though don't mistake that for me saying they would have beaten Baltimore.Quote:

Patriots front-seven destroyed Denver's blocking all game. What did they have, like 15 plays for a loss?
Meanwhile, Denver's pass rush couldn't even get close enough to Brady for an autograph. Brady literally didn't have to move at all in the pocket.
