[@SlickBlackCadillac]

But it wasn't Cundiff's fault. There was miscommunication on the sideline and they didn't know it was 4th down which is why he had to rush out which you NEVER see. Harbaugh should have called timeout. Belichick normally would call timeout to ice the kicker, but opted not to as he saw the situation from the other sideline. The fact that Harbaugh got a pass on being so outcoached and Cundiff takes the blames astounds me. I'm a Ravens fan and I will defend Cundiff til the day I die. I dislike Harbaugh.

Important thing to understand about that Patriots defense - Both New England and Green Bay allowed more passing yards that season than any team in NFL history. But both teams also created an insane amount of turnovers. 2011 was basically a "live ball" season. Bunch of QBs threw for 5000 yards where only a couple had ever done it before 2011. But specifically GB and NE - or more accurately - Brady and Rogers - no one could stop these teams' offensives. And every team they played knew they had to score a lot of points to stay in the game. How do teams score more points than normally? Take more chances. The way they played in a playoffs, even the SB loss against Eli who almost got 5000 yards himself, showed they weren't the 2nd worst pass defense in NFL history.
