    Oops, probably need a comma there. NE had run the play against their own D in practice this week because they know that SEA liked to run that pass play in short yardage situations. The Pat's O scored on the Pat's D but the D was ready for the play come Super Bowl time.
    But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

    So Belichick didn't call a timeout in the hopes that Seattle would be psyched out and would botch the next play? Sorry but I'm not buying it. Lynch got tackled with 1:02 left. Seattle changes their personnel from a 2 TE I formation to the 3 WR formation and gets to the LOS at a normal pace. Seattle purposefully ran 30 seconds off the clock to leave as little time as possible remaining.

    If Lynch plunges the ball in, Hauschka most likely kicks into the end zone and NE is left with 20 seconds and 2 TO to get in field goal range. Belichick is then left answering questions this morning about why he only left Brady with 20 seconds and 2 TO instead of 55-58 seconds and 1 TO.

    I think Belicheat screwed up there. Let's say Lynch does score and there is only a dozen seconds left. BB would be roasted just like Carroll is today.

    Maybe, though Bevell said they wanted to run the clock down specifically to keep it out of Brady's hands.

    Even with 30 seconds off the clock Seattle could have run twice more. That means BB's baller move saved him one net Lynch/Wilson run. Hell of a price to pay when Seattle is better than 75% to score a TD.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Did Patriots have one or two TOs remaining?

    Seattle had ONE TO remaining when the ball was turned over on the Malcolm Butler pick.

    Seattle took time outs at:

    Timeout #1 by SEA at 01:50 remaining in the 4th Qtr.

    and

    Timeout #2 by SEA at 01:06 remaining in the 4th Qtr.

    Timeout #1 by NE at 02:52 of the 4th Qtr.

    Marshawn Lynch was 1 for 5 from the 1 yard line this year. Heard this on radio, it was said to be on Twitter, but cannot find it.

    Anyone else here this?

    Did Michael Bennett, who looked to be taking over the game in the 3rd Quarter, disappear at the same time Avril did?

    I wonder about it. Everyone says BB schemed him away, but its seems too coincidental they lost Avril about the same time.

    Both coaches were stupid on that last play - last minute.

    Belichick should have called a TO; and Carroll should have run...

    NE's DC pulled a few dunderdummy moves during the game as well... Seattle's TD at the end of the 1st half comes to mind - just let the receiver run into the end zone and pitch and catch?? With 6 seconds on the clock?? Really?? Straight out of dunderdummy's playbook. There were a few others as well, but I had a few drinks and can't remember, lol...

    I don't have stats on this year specifically, but he is 5/12 in those situations over the past 3 years.

    The really damning thing for Seattle is that NE was horrible in short yardage situations. Worst team in the league in "power-running situations" and fifth worst at "stuffing" power runs (no gain or a loss).

    On the flip side, Seattle was very good at converting power situations and rarely got stuffed.
