Meh, this is one of those decisions that people were going to whine about regardless of what was decided.  Keeping them in scoring range, and with a potential for a short conversion would have been a matter of coaching scared.  Accepting the penalty was a more aggressive decision.  Good coaches (not Bowles, but you know, other ones) don't make decisions based on fear of their team screwing something up.

I'm not even slightly surprised that it came back to bite them in the ass, but anyone pretending how obviously right it was to decline the penalty are dependent on hindsight in order to complain some more, as if Bowles doesn't give us an endlessly long enough list of reasons already.

Why would you give them an extra down?

Is this guy ******* kidding me right now? Macc should walk down and fire him on the sideline. Wtf

No he shouldn't. He should call back all of his failed draft picks and have them lie down in the grass below Todd's office window and form the words "You're Fired".

Tom brady they are playing,  If the pats fail they STILL have a loing FG to try,  No it was a moronic decision.

made no sense at all

4th and 2. Go for a field goal, same as if they stopped the 3rd and long; go for a first, a chance to get away with no points in the board

3rd and Long; another chance for Brady and field goal if he fails

yeesh

No way belichick kicks on 4th and two.  Not a chance.

You should be able to trust your defense on 3rd and 12.  Plus an incomplete pass makes it a difficult kick. It was the right choice. Gronkowski beat Claiborne. That's all. 

You always take 4th down vs Brady! Have you watched our 3rd down defense this year? Or our pass rush? Stupid! Let them kick FGs!!!

There is zero question the same argument would have been made if the penalty were declined.  Literally every single thing that happens these days is morphed into an excuse to whine.  It's totally meaningless at this point, considering how much the arguments actually contradict each other from one moment to the next.

Keep on loving Bowles and Macc. I'm sure they're just about to turn it all around.
