Connelly’s Top Ten - Three Runs to the Left!

1. STUFF

* McDaniel - Not scoring a TD from the one yard line on three runs to the left is McDaniel’s parting gift to New England

* PAtriots finished season 4-5

* Bailey two touch backs on punt

* Why not have a man back for punt 

* The whole season changed on a text from Antonio Brown

* Great answer from Bill after game when asked to complement fans for sticking with team

* They got their break with interception but couldn’t capitalize

2. BRADY

* Appreciate every game!

* It ends on a pick six - cruel 

* Sign in the end zone - “Please stay Tommy”

* Last five games: 6 TD to 4 INT

* Brady’s ball dying outside the numbers (Dorsett one catch he had to go to ground to get catch)

* Brady had been 5-0 when he doesn’t throw a TD in a playoff game

* Doesn’t Brady have to check out of one of those three runs to the Left on the goal line

3. OFFENSE

* Handing a ball to Elandron Roberts 3rd and 1 - thanks McDaniel 

* Hey Josh - how about the hurry up - something!

* Harry first play of game not on same page with Brady / Brady yelled at him at end first half / drop later

* Why not 15 end arounds - ran it three times for 19 yards and a TD

* Mason down field illegal cost them 40 yards

* Michel running out of bounds after a long gain is all you need to know about his compete level of this team 

* Five drives after being stopped at goal line - 110 yards / 16 plays

* Sanu averaged 16 yards a game the last SEVEN games of the year

* Sad that Edelman drops that ball - played like a warrior - only three receptions closer to Jerry Rice in post season catches 

* Why not more Burkhead 

* Dorsett four catches since his concussion back in November 

* Sanu finally a run back on a punt 

4. DEFENSE

* Line got bitch slapped - pushed off the ball

* Chung has used up his deductable on his health coverage (he gets hurt in every playoff game)

* Didn’t take Titans long to find Brooks 

* Tight ends kill Patriots in playoffs - see Denver’s Owen Daniels / Eagles Zach Ertz

* Bart Scott mocking the Patriots defense at halftime on CBS - “The self named boogie men gave up over 100 yards to Henry in first half”

* “Love” Jones hitting Henry at the one yard line and staring him down

* Gilmore great job on Brown

* Collins needed to make one play and he lost Deion Lewis in coverage for a 3rd down conversion 

* McCourty had a chance to take down Henry and Tannehill and whiffed on both

5. BILL GARB / KRAFT SIGHTING

* Bill with old school hoodie 

* Kraft with 9:13 left in second quarter / 8:42 left in second quarter - highlighting / 11:10 left in the 4th quarter / 2:08 left in the 4th quarter 6.

BIGGEST PLAYS OF THE GAME

* Handing ball off to Elandron Fuc*ing Roberts on third and one

* Three straight runs to left at goal line

* Mason downfield illegally taking away long pass to Watson

* Edelman drop for first down 

7. BROADCAST / REFS

* Romo seems to know something on Brady 

* This is just a filler - both were fine

8. STATS

* Lost to a team with 9 completions

9. TITANS

* If Titans lost - Logan Ryan wound remember his dropped pick six the rest of his life

* Henry a man amongst boys 

* Vrabel left New England on a bad note - this win tastes good for him

10. Bills - Texans

* Allen not a graduate of MIT 

* Now what do Bills fans - have winter to look forward to

* The non sack of Watson was like Patriots not sacking Eli Manning

* Hauschaka from Bills 24-24 in field goals 50 yards or less in playoffs
