for all the bitching about officiating, that's a hell of an interception call in real time

The knee is super close to OOB, but without 10X zoom and freeze frame I don't know how you could see it better.

Stroud with 2 picks.

I'm trying to decide if I now want to root for insult to injury and see the Pats get to the Super Bowl with a chance to win Number 7.

Rooting for Houston feels like rooting for the Steelers during the Canada era...their only chance is defense scoring

Stroud is a very dumb human

Like Tomlin he does not lear and repeats mistakes

His second pick was on the receiver.

Yes the ball wasn't perfect but the dude has to catch that.

That second down pass

Stroud is so mentally wrecked and risking annihilation I would think about putting in Mills

Amazing how much pressure the Pats get on CJ and the league's most expensive D couldn't do it.

And yet they are still only down 4....

That's how a defense is supposed to play, by the way. Supposed to step up when you turn it over. Can't play scared on offense from giving the defense a short field.

Stroud is making terrible decisions but that O Line is live a sieve today. The Pats have had jailbreaks on a majority of the dropbacks. That is not a recipe for success.

What gives Houston hope is that NE has also been awful on offense too.

This is just ugly to watch.

Jason Stidham stands between the Patriots and their shot at Number Seven.

I know Payton loves Stidham and paid a mint to get him to the Broncos.

But against this Pats' D they could use Nix' mobility because they cannot run the ball at all.

Imagine running a scheme where the OLine doesn’t know where the rush is coming from

I can't recall a QB throwing 4 INTs in one half in the playoffs.

I don't understand why obviously failing pitchers get pulled but somehow coaches ride obviously failing QBs into a death spiral.

Well, I guess you can if you're playing the Steelers.
