The Baltimore Ravens had a chance to give the Patriots their first loss of the season, and had a 4-point lead with a few minutes left. The Patriots had one last drive to try to win, and Billick chose to rush 3 guys on this drive, giving Brady all day to find receivers and lead the Patriots to the winning touchdown. What will it take until coaches figure out you can’t give a quarterback all day and expect to stop the offense, especially a quarterback like Brady with the receivers he has? It was obvious from the beginning of the drive that this wasn’t working, but he never went away from it.

The Ravens did stop them on the last drive! It was the idiot Ravens coach who signaled for a time out and before the ref blew the whistle, the play was run and the Ravens stopped them on fourth down. It was not until the Patriots got a second chance that they were able to win but the second chance was “granted” by the idiot Ravens themselves!
