I didn't see even one second of this game but I already know exactly what happened, without looking at any of the commentary (I will in a minute though).
1. The Patriots' offense will, in general, do a decent job.
2. The Blacks on the Patriots' defense will, with almost violent, cretinous incompetence, sabotage any gains made by the offense.
3. Cam Newton will, for the most part, SUCK.
4. Commentators will do everything in their gay power to convince you that Newton does not, in fact, suck.
5. DWFs, being retarded, will buy it.
6. The refs will give the game to the Black quarterback if possible.
7. Newton's White players will do a lot of the grunt work that wins the game but get none of the credit, even though Cam is hardly the brains behind the enterprise.
Pretty much, Brady and the offense need to play a perfect game, every game, and build an insurmountable lead, otherwise their defense will blow any modest lead or render futile any comeback. Of course no team can play perfect offense all the time, hence NE's struggles. They have their problems on offense as well (get rid of the Blacks. SIMPLE), but it's their own defense that kills them.
The Patriots are an interesting case study in the qualitative difference between predominantly White and Black sides of the ball. The White side is FIRE.
The Black side is, for lack of better vocabulary on my part, ******.
