Sorry, but this is a HUGE load of horse poo. Don't believe this one bit. They ran a play to maximize their chances with the clock and TOs remaining. Take your conspiracy theory crap somewhere else.
Is that really necessary?
You can disagree with it, but I wouldn't ca it crap. The play call, no matter his well it's spun, will never make sense. I mean, I could get behind a fade route/jump ball to Matthews, who was balling all day, but a slant to Ricardo Lockette? I know that wasn't the first option there, but it never should have been an option at all.
No. 3 rush offense ever
Hardest RB to bring down - ever
A poor Pats run D in those situations (No. 30 in the NFL)
There's no logic in that play call. Even if that pass was completed, I'd be asking the same question - why play with fire like that? Honestly, why?
I don't think that article was your run of the mill media drivel. It makes sense on a lot of different levels. I'm not saying I buy it, but it definitely gives me pause.
