??? The ball that hit him perfectly in the hands?

With a defender on his shoulder and 2 surrounding him..yea a catch is expected from a professional but I don't blame him for NOT catching it when he shouldn't have been the target to begin with.

Rhule has to stop with this mentality of going up two scores and calling  80:20 run to pass ratio. The players follow suit and pack it in mentally

 

Yup.  But I put it on Brady.  Rhule is more of a defensive guy, so I think he leans conservative, but Brady has to know when to take shots and take calculated risks...  but once we have the lead, the offense just bogs down and they can't get out of it.  They should be calling relatively the same game with the lead as we did building the lead.

    • These kickers are getting so good
    • They're pretty far off, double T-Mac's stats to get to the same targets as XL and it would be 4 drops to 7.  A 3 drop difference might not sound like a lot, but it's still almost twice as many drops on the same number of targets. Not to mention, if I remember correctly, XL's drop problems last year seemed more down field, where he was dropping passes he should be making and it was clear his poor hands were there reason he dropped them. And weren't both of T-Mac's drops this year on quick hitters with blockers out in front of him?  I know at least the second one was as he was going to go for a huge play and maybe a TD on it. To me, and yes, I'd say this about any other player, those are drops because a rookie was trying to do too much in making a play before securing the catch.  Much easier to improve upon a lapse in concentration than dropping passes because you have bricks for hands and body catch more often than hands catch, like with XL. And yes, 100%, which is why I wasn't one of those people you were referring to with talking about him that way last year.  Yes, I said he had drop problems., because he did, but I didn't think they were unsolvable and expected to see great improvement this year after an offseason of hitting the juggs machine (unfortunately not sure that happened though).
