I was there...

Quite the game... and yes, we put up 52, and did it with class. Lavar tore it up that game...

We did, we ran the ball on something like 23 of the last 25 plays from scrimmage. Including the entire 4th Quarter.

I think Ramsey played the 4th as well as Betts and Cartwright (who were clearly backups in 2005)

Yep. Betts came in and ran all over the Niners, so we rested him for Cartwright and he even scored a TD on them. Ramsey ran 3 times (for -3 yards) and passed only once as we tried to run the clock out by running. Unfortunately, they still let us move the ball and score...not great for running the clock out.

Here we go again...... The bottom line is NE has a different mentality than us. They put in the back-ups to score. Has Matt Cassell ever throw a pass in the NFL? I don't think he has. So what good does it do to bring the guy in to hand the damn ball off? Get the guy some well needed game experience and try to score. What if Brady gets hurt? Get the next guy ready and the only way to do that is get him on the field during a game and let him throw some.

When we played SF it would have made sense to have Ramsey throw some passes so he could get some more game experience and knock off some rust. Why go in and hand it off so the opponent can kill your RB? It makes no damn sense. Again, it's the defenses responsibility to get off the field and stop the offense.

If I were coaching the Redskins ( and thank god I'm not) I would have pulled Randall Godrey aside and lit into his ass for crying like a little bitch. He has no balls what so ever and as far as I'm concerned ship his sorry ass back to Dallas.

Your mentality, and the mentality of the Patriots is not the norm in the NFL. Most teams with a big lead will pull starters and milk the clock. And most importantly, they don't go for it on 4th down when they are in FG range.

I know you don't agree, but that's what most teams do, and that's why people including myself were a little irked with how the Patriots went about things on Sunday.

So you would have been less "irked" if they had tried for a field goal and the final score is 49-7 instead of 52-7?

What's the cut-off point for being "irked" at the score, and being okay with it?

As we can see, the Patriots aren't anywhere close to the 'norm' in this league. Maybe more teams should adopt this mentality, rather than cry about it.

Well I have heard 3 former Redskins in the last 24 hours say too bad and deal with it. Actually 4. Mark Scherleth (sp?) was on ESPN and he killed the Redskins. Bob Golic too. So when you have players who played the game at the highest level saying they had no problem with what NE did then you have to wonder.

Plus if they kicked the FG people would still be crying, and NE did pull the starters.

I'm feeling you on Godfrey. I mean, what has the NFL turned into, the gentlemen's club? Who goes to the opposing coach and complains after a game. I don't want this guy on my team. No fight, no nasty. We need three more Sean Taylors and one more Laron Landry on this team. Too many soft asses...hell, let Portis play defense.

Honestly we should just cut him to send a message. We simply don't need guys like that.

i wasnt mad at the Pats for running up the score, our hard-hittin skins D should have sent coach B a message by sending a few starters to the bench on a stretcher . . .

one commentator last night did say something i hadnt thought of . . . the fake spike when the pats were already cruising (then randy pushing off) was alil cheap. I understand doing that when your trying to tie or take the lead late in a game but when your cruising to victory and show a spike the other teams D players assume your going to spike it to kick a field goal so they (as a professional courtesy) just mush together with the O line and dont try and penetrate or get to the QB

I have to disagree with you here. If they had done that in the 4th quarter I would say it was BS; but they did it at the end of the 1st half, with the game at 17-0, so I'm fine with them trying to get another TD before the break.

Bottom line, people are sharply, I mean sharply divided on this. Whether you turn to ESPN, Comcast, CBS, or Warpath there are contrasting views and opinions on this one. Personally, I find it quite interesting and it will no doubt be a topic of heated debate for the balance of the season.

Two interesting scenerios that will make this very juicy: An AFC Championship showdown between the Pats and the Chargers because of what happened last year. Or The Pats receiving the Lombardi trophy from Goodell. Either will get tons of press coverage if it happens.

I like LT. But when he got up and started crying like a baby cause NE was making fun of Shawn M. dance he looked like a total fool. Shawn Merriman is an animal and I wish we drafted him instead of Carlos. But why do you have to do that dance? You are only setting yourself up to get it back in your face and you know the opposing team is not going to like it one bit. Just go celebrate with your team. You don't see QB's doing dances when they throw a TD pass do you?

[over the mountain]

your right art monk, it was only 17-0, my bad . . . well i stand by my moss pushing off statement (even though all the great wrs do it)!!!!
