yeah the Texans, and the Patriots...great comparison....Originally Posted by STAMPY
the comparison. Is the score piling. They were up 20 plus. Why should it be different if you are NEOriginally Posted by FlyingDutchman
Dude, what dont you get? UP 38 POINTS, 7 MINS LEFT, AND YOURE ON THE 12. My POS old high school team could have held them off with that lead for 7 mins...Originally Posted by STAMPY
That was all bush league. You want to run the ball with your starters still, pass for first downs, and throw long bombs with the game completed decided, Fine. But to go for it on fourth down is a joke. Thats classless.
Buy land in AK now. In ten years due to global warming, it will be the new tropical paradise, minus the tropics
That's exactly it.Originally Posted by FlyingDutchman
Didn't one of the teams put up 28 points in under 11 minutes today? I think it was San Diego???
ok, so now we are talking about THE TEXANS, in ELEVEN minutes, and 28 points. Another great comparison, for the PATRIOTS, and SEVEN minutes, and 38 points, AND THE BALL. Washington would have to score 6 straight TDs and get the onside kick everytime and do it all under 7 minutes....give me a break....Originally Posted by Cntrygal
Oh, so it's okay for a non patriot team to score as many points as possible in as little time as possible - and win. Got it.
oh... and SAN DIEGO is the Chargers - not Texans.
Hardly surprising coming from Belicheat and the Cheatriots.
I agree it's kind of a damned whatever you do situation, but passing from the shotgun in the fourth quarter did seem a little unnecessary.
The truth is, Belichick is proving that's he's a classless ******* and is trying to get back at the whole league for catching him cheating. I hope karma gets him, but i doubt it.
The Pats are obviously playing with a huge chip on their shoulder this year due to the tapes and accusations of cheating. When you completely destroy any team you play, outisde of the Browns-had to plug them here, you're basically proving that you have no peer. If the Pats come out next weekend and beat the Colts to the tune of 2 scores or more, people are either gonna realize they're a great team or they're getting away with their cheating.
This is the NFL. Every team is supposed to be talented. You don't like that you're getting trounced by 38 points, maybe you should decide to show some heart and spine and stop them. Just a thought.
And the last TD drive was executed by Cassel. I see nothing wrong with him throwing it around and gaining some experience. He has to develop somehow in case Brady ever did get hurt. Experience helps.
I hate the Patriots, but this is professional sports, not little league. You play for 60 minutes, 16 times during the regular season. Why shouldn't a team put forth 100% for all of those minutes? Twice now, we've seen what happens when you beat a team for 99% of the time. That said, I do think the Patriots are a bunch of smug *****s, and I hope they get their ass handed to them, but unfortunately, I don't see it happening. I think they'll "run up the score" on Indy this week. Hopefully I'm wrong.
The Texans were the team that was scored on, and it would have had to been the Patriots getting scored on like the Texans....Originally Posted by Cntrygal
Yeah im sure your 2 years of JV football in HS made you so qualified, and me a dumbass for saying this. I played football. I also played a D1 sport in college. I know a thing or two about competetive nature. I also know it doesnt take an athlete to see a team running up the score. Going for it on 4th and 2 with a 38 point lead and 7 mins? Thats like playing a full court press with 5 mins to go and a 20 point lead in basketball. Its just purely uncalled for...Originally Posted by gr8slayer
Bingo! I don't lilke Belichick, but I'm not going to waste a whole lot of emotion on him. Like you, I hope he gets embarrassed and discredited at some point, but I'm not going to wring my hands waiting for it to happen.Originally Posted by Mikey82
I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.
I turned and watched on a TV behind me and thought, WTF is Brady still in there up 38-0?? It will end up biting the pats in the ass if a team that has nothing to lose takes out Brady, the coach will look like a A-hole. Oh wait he already does, move on.Originally Posted by FlyingDutchman
The 49ers beat Denver in the SB 55-10.
The Bears beat the Pats in the SB 46-10.
The Cowboys beat the Bills in the SB 52-17.
The Giants beat the 49ers in the playoffs 49-3.
Gibbs and his Redskins beat the Rams in the playoffs 51-7.
The Bears won the title 73-0.
It is true the Pats are not calling off the dogs this year. They are playing to dominate teams. I'm not sure of the reason, although the whole spygate controversy is probably a big part of it, but it is what they are doing and teams will have to deal with it.
Someday the tables will turn and the Pats will get theirs back. It is the way it works, but keep the crying and *****ing out of it. It's just a game, played by professionals. Nobody needs to feel sorry for anyone.
