The Charge Of Chix Brigade

Adapted from The Charge of the Light Brigade by Alfred, Lord Tennyson

First half the game, effort wasted in vain,
Second half the game spiraled downward,
All in the second half of Defeat
Played the twenty-two starters:
Forward, the Front Four!
Charge for the QB, Stash said:
Into the second half of Defeat
Played the twenty-two starters.

Forward, Secondary!
Was there a DB dismay'd ?
Not tho' the defense knew
Wannstedt had blunder'd:
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to trust the coach’s eye,
Into the second half of Defeat
Played the twenty-two starters.

Brady threw strikes to right of them,
Brady threw strikes to left of them,
Brady threw strikes in front of them
Safe in the pocket, Untouch'd & unencumber'd;
Storm'd at with Welker and Gronk,
Wild they ran cus nobody covered,
Into the jaws of Defeat,
Into the mouth of Hell
Played the twenty-two starters.

Gash'd on the ground,
Gash'd through the air
LBs on the bench could only stare,
No adjustments, did the coaches care
All the fans wonder'd:
The RB’s motion was nothing but smoke
Cut back through the line they broke;
Williams & Dareus
Reel'd from the double team stroke,
Shatter'd & sunder'd.
The enemy scored at will, but not
Not the twenty-two starters.

Fitz overthrew to right of them,
Fitz underthrew to left of them,
Fitz threw to the other team instead of them
Volley'd and thunder'd, how bout the run we wonder’d;
Ran straight at Wilfork, our wounded RBs rumbled,
Stood up in the hole, Freddie & CJ fumbled,
Though Choice last week had fought so well
Why he sat on the bench, no one could tell
Back from injury to soon, it was easy to tell,
Some were re-injured and still more fell,
Who was left of twenty-two starters.

When will Chix stubbornness fade?
O the craptastic game plan they made!
All the world wonder'd.
Out coached were Chix Brigade,
Still fans drink the KoolAid!

Buffalo’d are the fans and the twenty-two starters!
