He said he "wants" to kill teams every week, not that he will. It's sorta his job.

Guess he should return his game check this week since he didn't do his job. I didn't see him kill anybody last night. I saw him limp his way to a lucky win.

63%, 380 / 1, no picks. If thats your bad game, I guess you might just be able to play in this league.

He limped? I saw him throw for almost 400 yards and lead his team to a 4th qtr comeback!

4th quarter comeback against the Eagles led by AJ Feeley....far from killing a team. :chuckle:

I would recommend to my fellow patriot fans to just "walk away" from this thread.

A win is a win whether you win by 50 or 3. There's a reason why only one team in the history of the NFL has gone undefeated.
That was another great game though!

I think saying they aren't dominant is a little overboard here. The Patriots are a passing team and in conditions like tonight, they will struggle.
However, I am disturbed by the Patriots' inability to stop the run. The Eagles and the Ravens are the first two decent rushing offenses they've faced this year besides the Colts. It is clear that a power running game combined with a solid defense will give this team trouble. The Ravens had a great gameplan and would've won this game if they could've executed in the 4th quarter.
Next week against Pittsburgh could be interesting.

I will make this short and I am sure I will be blasted for this, but after watching the game tonight it came to me. Why would the Pats ever cheat, heck the refs help them win. I will admit I really want to see the Pats go perfect and was rooting for them to pull it out because I am sick of hearing fom the Dolphins. However after that last drive I was pretty upset with the refs calls on that drive and starting pulling for the Ravens to pull it out on their last drive. Anyways the game is over and my venting is over so lets go Pats, only 4 more games.

Interestingly enough though, they won.

I thought the call was correct on the field and in the replay. Yeah, the ball was moving, but that in no way suggests it isn't under control. He was bringing the ball from his hands to his body, completely different than juggling it. Baltimore has a better ground to stand on with the ticky tack holding call on fourth down.

let's assume that it was no TD. The two personal foul penalties still would have applied - I think it would have been half the distance to the GL twice. That would put the ball at the 2. Pats would have had first and goal from the two, with 44 seconds left. IMO, a TD would be inevitable at that point.
I think arguing that call is purely an academic exercise.

Only problem is he never brought the ball to his body. As a matter of fact it almost slid up his arm as he went out of bounds. Never had a grip on the ball til he was out.

because they hate the pats and their own life choices make them bitter?

Even if they said it was incomplete, NE would have had 1st down and goal from the 1 and a half yard line after the three penalties on BAL.

There were a lot of plays that made a big difference in that game. Some by the Patriots, some by the Ravens, maybe even some by the refs. But that play didn't matter.
Even if they call that incomplete, after the two unsportsmanlikes New England has the ball 1st and goal at the 2, and all it does is give Baltimore less time when they get the ball back.

I do agree with this, that they probably would of got it anyways. However you don't know and it is the way it should of went down he did not have complete control.

I don't know. I saw a Pats guy on the last drive get tackled in the end zone and all that was called was holding instead of pass interference. By the way, where I come from there's an old saying - "Win the game on the field and don't rely on the refs". Pats won. Ravens lost. Plain and simple.

Two weeks in a row, against sub .500 teams starting back up Q.B.'s the Pats have needed to be fortune's darling to prevail. Color me unimpressed with the quality of ball they are playing, but very impressed in the favor in which the Fates are holding them.

Yeah, Bart Scott completely lost his head. This really hurt them in my mind because the whole night I thouhgt Figurs had a chance to run one back. With the short kicks due to wind, they could've gotten the ball at the 40 or better with a good return. This is why professional athletes need to act PROFESSIONAL at all times. The game is never over until the clock says zero and getting a stupid penalty due to mismanaged emotion is dumb no matter how mad you are.
