How did Braman not snag that? That was a perfect kick.

I thought it might have even hit Mercilus in the helmet.

That the last TD drive burned so much time off the clock is infuriating.

I'm arriving at the conclusion that Kubiak is not great at math.

Pats kneel it. 4th and 12 coming up..... tick, tick, tick.... Pats call a timeout with 1:18 left in the game. Pats to go for the FG.

Gostkowski's 38-yarder is good.

Pats 41, Texans 28

1:14 left in the game.

[Arky]

Texans field the ensuing pooch kick and Casey brings it back to the Texan 28.

---------------------------------------

Schaub is hit as he passes, pass goes inc. 2nd and 10 coming up.

Pass to AJ goes to the Texan 44, 1st down.

Pass to Casey goes to the Pats 41.

Pass to Jean ruled inc. 2nd and 10 coming up with 17 seconds left.

Pass to OD goes for 9.

Time runs out.

Final Score:

Pats 41, Texans 28

Schaub and Kubiak are a PERFECT tandem. Perfectly nutless.

I wonder what improving either element of that equation would do. I'll never know, of course.

Just inexcusable for an offensive-minded head coach to not have his team and staff ready to run a no-huddle or even a sugar-huddle offense.

And that last TD pass and the 2-pt conversion are two examples of how much easier it should be to score TDs deep in the red zone.
