4. Going for an interception when it was 4th down for the Pats. (On 4th down, you're supposed to bat the ball down)
5. Fumbling said interception, giving the ball back to the Pats.
6. Marty wasting a timeout to challenge "that the charger player was not down by contact." wtf?
7. Not running Ladainian Tomlinson more.
I'm sure there's more over that, as well. Chargers gave that game away, and Pats did just enough to win.
Strangely, both NFC teams look more deserving to be where they are, than the offensively-struggling Colts and lucky soft-schedule Pats.

Eric Parker fumble and then trying to pick it up rather than dropping on it.
