No, that analogy doesn't fit. Once the boxer is on the floor out cold from a punch, the boxing match is over. In football, the game isn't over until the final gun sounds and the clock reads 0:00.
The Patriots did not physically attack or try to maim any Redskin players on the field. Scoring touchdowns is perfectly within the rules of the game regardless of the time on the clock.
