Great play by Butler to see Kearse was still alive, and get him out of bounds.
On first down 3 patriots made outstanding plays to keep the beast out of the endzone. On second down....OMG. and Lynch was wide open too. When Wilson called that play in the huddle, they must have lookin at each other like WTF ? This is when Lynch should have took a page out of Hoosiers and said I'll make it. just gimme the rock.
Good wins over evil again. Great Job Champs !

Carrol wasn't even the guy who called the play. The offensive coordinator called the play. Is it possible that the reason the offensive coordinator didn't want to give the ball to Lynch was because he didn't want Lynch to get the glory? Sure it is possible, but I think it is pretty doubtful. We will never know for sure because there is no way to get into the guy's head. But the guy is one of the best offensive coordinators in the league. I don't think he got to where he is by being spiteful with his play calls.
