I don't blame all that on the defense. It was known that they aren't a top 10 unit in the league, so the offense is supposed to make their job easier by giving them time to rest and keeping them fresh. But since the Atlanta offense was quickly sent off the field so often, the defense simply ran out of gas down the stretch. The Patriots offense ran almost twice as many plays as the Falcons in regulation, after overtime the Patriots had run twice as many plays (93 vs. 46). |
Atlanta should have kept on running the ball when they where in field goal range in the 4th quater they would have won the game by a couple of points with a made field goal.
