We're about to find out, but I still can't believe we're seeing a 40+ pass Brady on the road like this just because they don't want to commit to a run game.

The sluggish, spotty shotgun spread experiment has to stop.

We're still 3-3 with 10 games left. Lots of football to be had. Plenty of time to make the playoffs. Tons of potential on this team offensively and defensively. What will make or break this team going forward is the coaching from the top to the bottom.

Are The Coaches Learning From Their Mistakes?

No they are not learning from their mistakes. Look at last years Super Bowl , or how much has the defensive philosophy changed. This is what the Patriots are with this coach. They're still a good team but will still blow leads when the offense suddenly shuts down and the defense folds.

"This is a team that really forces you to throw the ball, based on the schemes they play."

You only need 1 more point than your Opponent to win a game. Stop getting greedy, and forcing balls in for TD's. I hope the Coaches learned that yesterday.

I don't agree with that assessement. It's wrong.  This is exactly the problem: taking away/forgetting football fundamentals and obsessing over subsitutions and personnel to attack the "schemes" that they play.

That's the problem! It's over-management. It's completely over-thinking that element. You do that when your own offense isn't running well or your desperate, you don't do it as a gameplan every week!  Jesus.  What on earth is going on here?

Defenses can adapt to that very easily.  We've seen good and great Ds do it constantly because their gameplan is only centered around defdening the pass. They don't have to think or adjust on their end because they know we want to throw almost exlusively. 

I'll bet anyone right here and now that if we see Brady go 40+ vs Houston or SF at home, we'll lose.

I've offered this before just to take a friendly bet and I know why the Ballwashers won't take the bet.  It's very telling, because deep down they know the truth.

They don't have a good or even mediocre D , it's flat out atrocious,
 so any improvement will be minimal.

The assement is correct and you are not, as usual.

If Brady throw 40 times it's because he has to, not because he wants to.  He doesn't trust his D to hold a double diget lead and neither does BB.

Any blind man can see that. Take that back.  Maybe not a sick, twisted, blind man  or woman with an agenda.  The rest of them ...No problem.

No! At the end of the first half against the Ravens they completed a TD pass with 1 second on the clock. If it had been incomplete the clock would have run out without any points. The suceeded with bad strategy then and so they somehow convinced themselves it was good strategy. If anything they learned a bad habit. They continue to run out of the I formation for no yardagwe on 3rd and short and they seem to be surprised that it almost never works for them.
