I like Florio's comment
“-led by supposedly the greatest quarterbcak of all-time (just ask any Patriots fan)…” I can say this; Peyton wouldn’t have come out of the game. He would still believe there was a cxhance and I probably would too. Just a note: Brady’s biggest deficit overcome in a 4rth Quarter Comeback is 11 points. Peyton has one comeback from 21 points down and three from 17 points or more (including the 21 point comeback against the Bucs).

Odd
But as always, the probability is on Belicheck’s side. I’m not sure what the chances of leading three TD drives in 5 and a half minutes, let alone getting the two turnovers or onside kick recoveries to enable the second and third possessions, are, but they must be tiny.

Yeah, but
Every time he has kept his starters in and has gone for a touchdown when the Pats were destroying the other team, his reasoning was that his team plays 60 minutes of football. Yet when things look bleak, he quits. He deserves the criticism.

Of course he does
But him being an unsportsmanlike douche in general doesn’t make him wrong to bail on a lost cause in this case. It just makes him a smart unsportsmanlike douche…
