I have my doubts, Tom Brady is in the discussion as the best of all time, but I would think he wants the opportunity to make it a no shyte no doubt no debate thing.

BB just likes to win, it fuels him and I think he likes the challenge. My guess it that he coaches until he's thrown out of the building.

Lights out in the NE system, gors somewhere else and he's just a regular Joe NFL QB.
How do you fell now?

Yup bad play calling though. Just run the ball 3 times and kick to go up 11

Atlanta lost the game 'cause of the slow run into the end zone on the INT.

Isn't the OC in line to be the 49ers new Head Coach?

Atlanta up by 8 with 4 minutes to go and the ball on the New England 20. You come up with nothing,
no excuse. I'm livid if I'm a Falcon's fan.

While I totally agree, something has to be said for the Falcons offence not producing in the second half in general and the defence not being able to make a stop on any key plays, of which there were many in that 4th qtr.

It wasn't just the playcalling, it was the Atlanta clock management. There were lots of snaps before the play clock hit 20 seconds remaining when they were up 19, and then 8. Even with New England helping them by often taking at least 20 seconds to snap the ball when they were down, they didn't bleed the clock well at all. So they really did everything they could to help New England, awful game management and awful playcalling.

oh my lord.

I think the goat is actually new super head coach Shanahan for not running the ball when they were in field goal position.

Atlanta blew this game as much as NE won it. Credit to NE though

Well I'd hate to be the Stanley Cup team that gets up 3-1. After the Warriors, Indians and now Falcons delivering epic collapses, NHL has to be next.

Niner's should rescind their offer to Shanahan.

If you didn't know the score and just looked at the stats you'd assume the game was not even close. Really bizarre.

Great comeback from the Pats but brutal play calling in the 4th for the Falcons lost it.

The run the call twice and kick an field goal and it's 11 points and it's game over

Atlanta's three offensive TDs drives took less than 8 minutes. It was boom or bust for their offense, either a play of 8 yards or more, or nothing. In the end they just couldn't have sustained drives, so it made the TOP and yardage very lopsided.
