SD really blew this game...those idiotic penaties really did them in and lets be honest, the Pats got a few lucky breaks late to STEAL this game.
Every single Patriot fan needs to send Troy Brown $100.
Have to agree with everything you said there.
That's what good teams do. The Patriots are the greatest team in the history of the NFL. They make breaks.
I think the key play was the lack of situational awareness by the SD defender on the 4th down pass which was intercepted and then fumbled. If he was playing smart, he would have knocked down the pass and the Chargers would have gotten the ball on downs back around the 50 yd line. Stupid, stupid play.
Personally, I thought both of those non-fumbles (ruled against the Pats) SHOULD have been fumbles.
I mean, they were tucked on both of them. I guess just do not understand the rule.
But is true it was really dumb to challenge that last fumble and lose the timeout. I knew from the end of the play there would not be as successful challenge of that one.
