There was a lot to like and dislike about the New England Patriots loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night. One crucial play was a Julian Edelman dropped touchdown. The dropped touchdown occurred two plays before Cam Newton failed to score on the goal line.
Although Edelman may have dropped the touchdown, Newton is taking responsibility for the dropped pass. In what was a game with little margin for error, that mistake was certainly magnified.
Nevertheless, Newton stuck up for his teammate on WEEI’s “Greg Hill Show” as the Patriots move on to a tough Las Vegas Raiders team next Sunday.
