Bill Belichick Explains Controversial FG Decision From Saturday

The New England Patriots lost the game to the Indianapolis Colts and it was really disappointing. Players failed to win the game and some would say that Bill Belichick made a mistake with the controversial field goal.

According to the Patriots head coach, kicking the field goal was a right move in the fourth quarter in the game vs Colts.

The Patriots were 20-7 and faced a fourth-and-goal from the seven-yard line. Belichick pulled out a two-possession game

“I didn’t feel great about converting fourth-and-goal from the 7,” Belichick said in Monday’s video conference. “I didn’t think in that game situation, it would have been the best decision.”

Bill Belichick doesn’t pay much attention to the controversial call

The Patriots finished the game with a 27-17 loss and have a 9-5 record at this point of the regular season. Belichick’s controversial field goal made people talk. That’s our guy. Belichick is a brilliant coaching mind and he can make the right move at the right time. Of course, he can’t win games all by himself. His players need to do their job.

New England is packed with talent, but players struggled to make an impact. Rookie quarterback Mac Jones had a poor game in the first half of the game. He did improve in the second half, finishing the game with 299 yards and two touchdown passes. He shouldn’t have thrown two interceptions. These two picks put a black dote on Jones’ performance.

The Patriots will play against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. It’s an important game against a strong opponent. However, New England has already defeated the Bills. Players have to stay healthy and negative. Yes, a positive COVID test would force them to miss significant time. COVID is still here and NFL teams deal with huge problem at the moment.

The loss to the Colts will motivate Patriots players to finish the final games of the regular season with a win. The regular season is almost over and players should do something about the 9-5 record. They should regain the throne again. They are no longer the No.1 team in standings.
