The outcome of a game is the sum total of everything that happened in it. Fools disregard that basic truth and point to single events as a "deciding factor" in the result. FWIW, the fact the missed extra point happened so early in the game greatly lessened its impact in the Broncos winning in regulation. There were other factors that arguably kept NE from
winning in regulation and still others that kept Denver from winning by more. You and FPD05 are free to sing a duet, but I'm not interested in fools' follies.
Brady had 4 sacks for 18 yards and Manning had 3 sacks for 31 yards. Time of possession for each team was basically 50/50 with 12 sec difference. Denver played a good game but the hype about Brady being "ruled" is just an opinion at best when you look at the stats. ...<irrelevant gibberish>
You conveniently omitted Brady had 2 INTs... Brady was rattled and his stats sucked until after both Denver's safeties were injured late in the game and opened the middle for Gronk. His first touchdown "drive" was only 22 yards due to Denver's turnover. I give Brady major props for the way he avoided negative plays late in the game when Denver's pass rush had him in their grasp many times because most QBs would have gone down, thrown a pick and/or been called for intentional grounding.
Bottom line is you picked NE on the basis of Brady dominating the game and you've already admitted you were wrong about that.
