In response to "especially when Manning had been wicked fallable until the last 5 minutes." by TFox

He had just gone 80 yards in 90 seconds. NE wasn't going to stop him.

The Pats dodged a bullet that Brady didn't get a pick 6 on 3rd and 2 but their offense was their only hope of winning that game.

you know what? fine, then don't use your last timeout *before* the play. save the ability to challenge, at least. - TFox Nov 15, 20:56 4
- That's hindsight, though. They can't play differently because they might need to challenge something. - Jelly Nov 15, 21:04
- But the timeout gave them time to find the right play. They just didn't execute. -- nm - David Nov 15, 21:01 2
  - i hold them to a higher standard than that. if they wanted to go for it there, they should have thought of it more than two seconds beforehand... - TFox Nov 15, 21:04 1
    - To the contrary, in that situation, it is an imperative to take your time and get it right. It is the last play of the game if you do. -- nm - David Nov 15, 21:06
