Note: This is just my opinion...
Belichick is a great coach... but he lost the AFC conference game for the Patriots. The biggest weakness the Colts had was/is their rushing defense and he decided not to attack it. Yes some will claim that the Colts are the 'Steel Curtain' of the playoffs and no one seems to run on them... which if you just looked at the stats you would be correct. BUT beyond those stats you would see... kc only gave L. johnson 13 snaps and jamal lewis is old.
SO what does the great Belichick do in this game... pass 34 times and run 20 (not including brady's runs) ........when I think it should have been 34 runs and 20 passes.
this game felt just like the last time they played... Belichick has the ability to run against THE WORST running defense in the NFL with Dillion or maroney and he decided against it... and in my opinion it cost him the game in november and again in the conference championship.
I could not believe my eyes in November when Belichick did not attack the weak running D of Indy..and I am even more surprised he did not learn from his mistake and did it again in the afc conference game...
rebuttals???
also of note... i had the colts in the second half so I am not a whiner who lost money and want to blame someone.
