Looks like the Patriots just flat ran out of gas in that game.

Though I am glad the Patriots are not in the SB as I am tired of seeing them in it I have to give them props for a good season. They were rolling with a bunch of injuries on defense and a journeyman WR core all season long, many people wrote them off as SB contenders.

I'll ignore the lethargic AFC championship loss and tip my hat to them for a very impressive season

One for offense and one for defense. Let's go!

They were able to mask Gronk's absence with the run game for the last 3 weeks but once Denver shut that down the lack of receiving talent showed and Brady didn't have a good game either and he would have had to play near perfect to beat this Denver offense..

I slammed 1 drink for each of Brady 's tears, I'm so drunk now. So what are you all eating and drinking?

I made wings and some Cruzan rum drinks. Long live football!

All of their injuries caught up with them then you had Talib who could have been a difference maker on Thomas, helping the rest of the defense go out for a second straight AFC Championship game.

They were probably one of the worse 12-4 teams in a long time. Outside of the Steelers, every game came down to the wire.

My prediction, Kaepernick's two brain cells find each other and the `Niners pull one out at the wire.

Yeah it was the type of season that could have easily swung the other direction in those close games and with some bad luck they could have ended the season at something like 9-7. Reminds me of how Atlanta squeaked by in a ton of games last year

Somehow I don't think this fumble on the opening play is how Seattle expected to start the game.

starting a playoff team and agreeing to give them a 3 point bonus not a real good idea.
