Belichick gets a lot of credit for not taking the timeout on the final play to preserve clock and set up Brady for a down-the-field march. He had such total confidence in his defense and the message being sent to them was clearly "we don't need to worry about that - just stop them and get it done". And they did. Brilliant, brilliant, BRILLIANT bit of coaching IMHO. The vote of confidence like that from your coach makes all the difference sometimes - like this time.
Big props to Bill B. and the rest.
I feel for Pete C. - he's going to be second-guessing himself for months. Gotta' be awful to live with that guilt and carry it around. I've always kinda' liked him (just not as much as Bill B.).
