Belichick was criticized

When Bill Belichick made the decision to go for it on fourth-and-2 from his own 28 with 2:08 remaining and a six-point lead over the Colts on Sunday night, the future Hall of Fame coach knew exactly what he was doing.

It was a bold gamble that only a veteran Super Bowl coach with multiple rings in his pocket and balls of brass could make. However, the gamble failed and the Patriots lost 35-34 after leading by 17 points in the fourth quarter Sunday night.

The New England Patriots should be 7-2 today. But it seems it's all Bill Belichick's fault. Is it?

"The same thing I said after the game," Belichick said at his regular Monday news conference. "I thought it was our best chance to win. I thought we needed to make that one play and then we could basically run out the clock. We weren't able to make it."

Still, even one of his favorite former players had serious issues with the decision. Working for ESPN.com, retired Patriots linebacker Tedy Bruschi wrote: "As a former defender on that team, I would've cared less about the result of that fourth-down attempt. The decision to go for it would be enough to make my blood boil for weeks. Bill Belichick sent a message to his defense. He felt that his chances were better to go for it on his own 28-yard line than to punt it away and make Peyton Manning have to drive the majority of the field to win the game.

"I would look at this decision as a lack of confidence in our ability as a defensive unit to come up with a big play to win the game."

Coach's choice is a matter of sink or swim. Belichick is really not good at arithmetic

Signed Tedy Bruschi Photograph - 160 Celebration 16x20 $199.99 Signed Tedy Bruschi Photograph - 160 Celebration 16x20 Tedy Bruschi is the heart and soul of the New England Patriots- and a fan favorite. A linebacker with the team since 1996 Bruschi always seems to be in on every other tackle and sack. Bruschi was still savoring the Patriots' third Super Bowl victory in four years when on February 16 2005 he suffered a mild stroke. Most of the ensuing physical problems subsided soon after and following intensive rehabilitation Bruschi who had initially said he planned to sit out the 2005-06 season was cleared by doctors to resuming playing. And he did exactly that on October 30 2005 returning to the field for the Patriots' game against the Buffalo Bills. Tedy Bruschi has hand signed this 16x20 photo of him celebrating after the Patriots finished the regular season 16-0. A Steiner Sports Certificate of Authenticity is included.
