The one question I pose

[The Caped Crusader]

I always try to take the ref parts out. It's hard to do, but so many people don't even count referees as part of the game (they absolutely are).

One mistake is one thing. A player makes a mishap, you lose on it, so be it. Offense falls apart (13 yards in the second half). Defense gives up 20 points, including the game winning drive. Jackson doesn't tackle Bell. Geno needlessly pushes Big Ben and gets a penalty.

Basically, it's a lot of bone head, bad plays, all happening in one game that just end up coming back to coaching. We lack killer instinct. 17 points in the NFL isn't anything (as seen by tonight's outcome). New England, in this position, would've won by 30+ and yet, we found a way to lose.
