Interesting to see most of you pin this on Schaub. He's not Brady, Manning, Rodgers, or Brees. Never has been, never will be.
The D gave up 41 points tonight. Even the top 5 would struggle to win with that.
BTW, Boston is a great city, and Foxboro is an awesome place to watch a game.

Schaub played a pretty good first half and the offensive troubles were primarily the result of drops and an inability to run the ball.
Second half was another story. He managed to evade the rush for one of the few times i can remember and then inexplicably just threw the ball away. On 3rd down no less. Then he sacked himself after fumbling and threw the pick. Finally, he continued to dink and dunk despite being down by 3 scores.
Having said that, you're right. Schaub wasn't singularly bad. However, i think what is setting in for a lot of people is that Schaub has to have everything go right to succeed and that's just not going to happen in the playoffs. At least for me, it's the realization of something I've known for a while but didn't want to face.
