I also thought it was strange that Wilson didn't run the ball at all when it was crunch time.
I noticed the Pats were in man coverage as well, but was so engrossed in the game that I didn't really think about Russ not running until much later.
As for what Jammer said, I agree with it for the most part. Lockette and Kearse aren't the most sure handed guys. Kearse in particular is a 50/50 proposition there; he'd proven to be unreliable in the last 2 games with balls bouncing off of his hands, but to win the big game with a big catch....chances are he'd make it happen. He's really clutch in those situations, problem is many times he's put us in those situations.
There are a ton of things that could've happened or gone right for us and we win. The sad fact is that we overcame all of these tiny mistakes and were in position to win it. How many teams feel good having the ball on the 1 yard line, 1 time out, and 20 seconds to go with 3 downs to win a game ? Now compound that with our running game, the Pats lack of short running game defense, and how clutch our team has been. Of course we feel robbed. We let it get away.
I know it sounds like sour grapes or crappy fans. The Steelers-esque Pats fans pervading the internet and being general douches don't really help, but our fans are saying that the Pats didn't win this game, we lost it.
Well, the Pats did all they needed to to win. They made all the plays when it counted. We missed tons of opportunities, and still were in position to win. Yes, we lost the game. Pissed it away in fact. But the Pats still did enough to win. They won the game, AND we lost it for them. Look at the Pats players on the sideline. Look at Brady. They knew. You could see a team that thought they were beaten, to a stunned team that knew they had somehow won.
