4th and 1, less than 2 minutes in the game, Pats down by 4 points.
Pat's QB Tom Brady takes the snap and lunges forward to only be stopped by a wave of defensive Ravens! Game over and Pats lose their 1st game of the season.
Not so fast.
A Raven coach calls for a time out on the sidelines prior to the snap. Play doesnt count and 4th down will be repeated.
4th and 1,
Brady takes the snap and hands off to the fullback coming off the left side. Again, stopped! Game over!
Not so fast.
A Pat's offensive lineman moves early thus generating a flag. False start, move the Pat's back 5 yards.
Again 4th and 1, Pats pass for the 1st down and go on to win the game on Monday night football. The perfect Cinderella season lives on for one more week.
A coincidence, sure? Why not?
Back to back coincidences? Hell no! One a kagillion shot.
Okay kagillion is not a word, but man you cannot deny the fact that these two seemingly setbacks (the timeout called and the false start) ended up saving the Pats the game and possibly their beautiful season. Both within seconds of each other.
One must be blind not to see the how this had to be......... damn!
