Look who's singing Woulda Coulda Shoulda now... 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.
Well duh...There is always something a team could've done different to win a game but that's not what we are talking about. The kicker missed an extra point that would've sent the game to overtime. With all the rushes, Brady still did pretty good against the #1 defense. The missed extra point was out of his control.
I'd agree IF the extra point was missed at the very end of the game instead of the 1st quarter.
It doesn't matter if it was missed at the beginning or end of the game. Are you really saying if the extra point was made, the game wouldn't have played out different? Really? That's a little desperate.
NE had chances to negate the missed PAT, but they chose to go for it on 4th downs instead of kicking a FG. The NE woulda/shoulda/coulda fans pointed to those decisions as deciding factors more than the missed PAT. Go argue with your fellow fools...
