Oh, what a game last night between the Patriots and Colts! Oh, what an amazing finish, the 1-yard dart Peyton Manning threw to glue-handed Reggie Wayne with 13 seconds left that pushed Indianapolis to a 35-34 win!
Oh, what a mental meltdown by Bill Belichick!
What in the world was New England's resident sideline genius thinking?
With the Pats leading 34-28 and 2:08 remaining, the Hoodie Master went for a first down instead of punting the ball on a fourth-and-two situation from New England's 28-yard line.
Yes, his own 28-yard line!
Who did Belichick think was quarterbacking the Colts: Kyle Boller?
You can't give Peyton Manning, maybe the best quarterback of all time, the ball on your 28-yard line with the game on the line.
"PUNT IT AWAY! PUNT IT AWAY!" -- that's what every Patriots fan with half a brain was screaming. "AT LEAST MAKE MANNING GO THE LENGTH OF THE FIELD!"
But the Hoodie Master had other ideas.
Or maybe no ideas.
The Pats went for it, Kevin Faulk was stopped inches short of a first down, and Manning took over a whole 28 yards from paydirt.
Cue the theme from "Jaws." The Patriots were chum in the water.
Which is what Coach Hoodie is this morning to the Boston media. They're killing him. And with good reason.
