I'm too emotionally drained to do much commenting. Here are your links. I'll be insightful next week.

For my midnight opinion on last night's shocking defeat, check out Sports Fan Paradise.

First, the weekly table setters:

Jerry Thornton of Barstools Sports and Mike Reiss of ESPN Boston.

Now for everyone else:

It was bad enough that Rodney Harrison didn't have Belichick's back in the NBC postgame coverage, but then Tedy Bruschi piled on. A little loyalty, guys? I see where that was insulting to the defense, but they let Peyton march 79 yards in less than two minutes the drive before.

This is the best day Dan Shaughnessy has had since the day after Aaron Boone ended the 2003 ALCS.

I only got halfway through this Ron Borges column in the Herald. The Belichick-hating Borges was happier with last night's result than most Colts fans.

Finally, a third column about how Bill Belichick is a maniac. This one coming from Mark Sappenfield who writes for the foremost leader in football analysis, The Christian Science Monitor.

Now to balance out the haters, here are a couple intelligent writers who think that going for it on 4th & 2 was a good call: David Aldridge in the Washington Post and Wayne Winston in the Huffington Post.

Here is video of Belichick's Monday presser.

And finally, in case you need to get your mind off football today, here are The 100 Greatest Quotes from HBO's The Wire.
