Brady throws one pick in 202 attempts and we are jumping off bridges?
It was a mistake. He makes less of them than anyone at QB in football, and anyone on the team.
The defense is playing a good game though.
Not a ONE of that 20% will say squat about Welker dropping a TD though.

Actually we did run the ball 25 times. Miami was tough as they always are against us in Miami. Despite not racking up yards on the ground we still used the run enough to keep the Miami defense honest.
When it really counted in the 4th the running game kept the ball moving and kept the clock running. If we needed 5 or 6 on 3rd down the short pass succeeded. It was a good mix. Even though it only resulted in 3 points it took 7 minutes off of the clock and forced Miami to use all their timeouts.
Well stated glenr.

Yep, Rusty, it is ALL Brady's fault!!! He calls the plays all the time. Ever think there IS a strategy and has something to do with the Phins Run D? Seems you espouse the Pats banging their heads against the wall just to satisfy your own opinion on how the game has to be played! Oh, and by the way, there IS another team on the field playing the Pats and the Phins D is trying to stop the Pats.

That is about as clear and accurate a description of what I saw happen as it can get. That 4th qtr drive was a thing of beauty both in design and execution.
