I Have Officially Seen It All (1 Viewer)

[Mr. Retukes]

The Patriots didn't need this game. There is no reason to risk injury to starters for a meaningless game.

Then why trot Brady out there at all?Also, this is the biggest Sour Grapes post I've ever seen in the history of this website.

No coach reminds me of ME more than Belichik. I don't mean that in a kind way - I mean me, playing madden. Yeah, when things are going well - PILE ON! PILE ON!When things are getting arough, MAKE DUMB DECISIONS! FORCE THINGS TO HAPPEN (i.e. dont kick easy field goals and instead go for a tough 4th down).When things are pretty much done, just say #### it and give up.Pathetic.

That's great

 

[phthalatemagic]

Granted the Pats were getting drilled all night long, how do you pull Brady & Co with over 5 minutes left in a game that three TDs could win?

Trust me, I don't think the Pats had a shot in hell but I am stunned.

Brady is no Manning.

you're right.Brady is not a regular season stat monger like Manning...he's also not a post season choker and he doesn't have a losing post season record.Brady has, however, played in 4 SB's, winning a few on last second drives that he engineered...he also led a team to a 16-0 mark and if not for a miracle toss from Eli, Brady would have won a 4th SB capping the NFL's second-only undefeated season..he's never lead a team to a 12-4 or better record, only to lose in the first round of the playoffs, something Manning has done 5 times ,if I'm not mistaken? so yeah, Brady surely is NOT Manning...

and in January, in the post season,when NE is still alive and Manning is drinking hot cocoa on his rocking chair at home watching TV after losing yet another playoff game, maybe then you'll say Manning surely is no Brady..

because, you know, he isn't..

you're comparing greatness to greatness..and when doing so, post season record and titles won, means a hell of a lot more than 4k yards, 28 tds, and consistently finishing the 'regular' season with a 12-4 record ala Manning. big friggin deal.Brady wins when it matters.something Manning doesn't do nearly as often..he doesn't win post season games.

Ohh wow

 

[BRONG]

Pats fans still the same...

I'd say roughly 80-90% of the population is like this.

I guess the "FU TD" is oh so 2007

 

[Neil Beaufort Zod]

5:38That's how much time was left on the clock when the Patriots quit.

Embarrassing. I guess Belichick missed the Heidi game.

 

[munchkin]

Yeah, but he was bald.

Bradshaw never played on a team with a defense as bad as the Patriots had in 2007. It's a team game. Brady put them in a position to win and the defense dropped two INT's and the NY Giant's offense made some Tyriffic catches.

The break down isn't quite as simple as you want to make it out to be.

No, it's not. Tanner9919 has made that very clear. Brady and only Brady is responsible for the Patriots' postseason fate, and Manning and only Manning is responsible for the Colts' postseason fate. If you have a problem with this, I suggest you take it up with Tanner9919.

Funny, I thought you might want to take responsibility for what you write; my bad.

Let's see, BB pulls the offensive starters with 5:38 left, down by 3 scores, but he keeps the starters in and throws bombs downfield to Randy Moss up by 2 scores with only 30 seconds left? I don't know how any Pats fan can defend this without being a BB thumbsucker.

Watching it, it reminded me of a child flipping over a board game and pouting after losing.

There's no hate like Patriot hate.

Up to 7 pages so far. . .I'm sure the Cincinnati Bengals or Houston Texans would've gotten the same reaction though.

It's Patriot homers' excuses that fetch this stuff. They can never stop explaining.

Or acting like they're too busy or too important to care...yet they read and post in threads like this.

The hate gets a bit old after a while. Sometimes I wish Scott Zolak or Hugh Millen was still the QB and nobody gave a rat's behind what they did from week to week. I guess it's jealousy or something?

Yes, I'm not sure how this factoid reconciles with David Yudkin's explanation that the reason that BB pulled his starters in the Saints game was because of a beaten up offensive line and that he didn't want to risk injury to Brady, et al behind an banged up line. Last I checked the "banged up" line that Brady was behind for the last play of the game the week before (NYJ) was very similar to the line that took the field vs the Saints.

I rest my case. Too easy...

You might want to check your sarcasm meter a bit there, buddy.I don't actually think Bradshaw was better than Brady. I was just using him to point out how extremely ridiculous the guy's argument was.

I can't believe I actually had to spell that out for someone.
