If you don't want to get the score ran up on you, play better defense.

 

[Cmill216]

HOW CLASSLESS WAS THAT???????? You don't run up the score like that in the NFL!! They could have taken a knee or kicked a field goal!!

If the Colts had done it, you wouldn't be complaining.

 

[Matt]

Nah, he did it to turn the knife...

Not a big deal at the end of the day....


lmao, but it had nothing to do with not wasting time.....Brady could have taken a knee, turned and walked off the field.....

but again, not a big deal in the end.....they won the game. The W goes to the Pats....

Maybe, but even so, I don't think its a big deal. They are out there to score touchdowns. It is a competition. Why not take a TD if you can get it?

 

[Kelly]

As Bill has proved. Its a shame that none of his players sustained an injury.

Hmmmmmm.....nice attitude to have, and you called Bill a what?

 

[Memphis Slim]

It is their job to score points, taking a knee on the one yard line is ridiculous, and again, why send your kicking team out there when it really makes no difference at that point

Then again, I suppose if Peyton Manning overruled his coach in the middle of a game once again and decided to score the touchdown on fourth and one, you would be talking about what a God he is and how he shows no mercy.

THERE WAS ONLY 19 SECONDS LEFT!!

A coach's job is not to score points. Its to win games.

It is your job to protect your players. To call a play, when a knee is all that is needed to end the game is the proper call.

No...you don't "HAVE" too. But it's called sportsmanship!!

You're always looking for something. The Patriots just handed the Cowboys asses to Jerry Jones on a silver platter adorned with 3 Superbowl trophies. They beat one of the top 5 teams in the league and an undefeated team. Credit where credit is due.

 

[Alex The Great]

these boys get payed millions of dollars to score points. and they wee doing there job.....there doing wutht there payed to do. i don't see the down side in that.

 

[StorminNorman]

Hmmmmmm.....nice attitude to have, and you called Bill a what?

A classless cheating son of a *****?

 

[Showtime]

You realize that if they took a knee with the time alotted it would have just given the Cowboys the ball right?

 

[BlackLantern]

I'm sure Belichick (sp) probably let Brady make the call at that point.....

 

[Cmill216]

Exactly.

 

[Memphis Slim]

If the Colts had done it, you wouldn't be complaining.

Dungy wouldn't do that! And believe me he's had opportunity!

 

[StorminNorman]

cry me a river...

I'm not a Cowboy fan, I am not really a big fan of any team. I am a fan of football - and Bill Belicheck proves that he is not only a cheat, but a classless, despicable coach.

 

[StorminNorman]

You realize that if they took a knee with the time alotted it would have just given the Cowboys the ball right?

Not if they would of done it from the start.

They tried to score - it was an intentional move.

 

[Kelly]

A classless cheating son of a *****?

And yet, you are saying that its a shame more players on the Pats were hurt.....?????

Let's weigh this for a moment....


7 more points added to a W.....its still a W.

Men hurt, and possibly career ended....

Sorry, seems you are the pot calling the kettle black.....

 

[BlackLantern]

its like that BS crap in baseball where you shouldnt steal bases if you're up by a ton of runs.....your job is to win games, within the confines of rules and regulations, thats what the Pats did....they played well and won....Dallas was weighed, measured, and found wanting.....

 

[Matt]

Y'know, a big part of football is psychological as well. There is a good chance the Pats will be facing Dallas in the superbowl. Taking that score just to turn the knife does send a strong psychological message, not only to the Cowboys but to other teams as well. Bit tactless, sure...but who cares? Its no more classless than T.O. talking **** nonstop or Peyton Manning overruling his coach in the middle of a game. I swear, when a player does something classless, it is just shrugged off, but a coach does it and he is the devil.

 

[Alex The Great]

Brady's one of the best (if not, the best) player in the league. he gave his team more points......some of y'all are bashing the Pats cuz they ''Kept going for 6'' well people. Brady, Welker, Moss, Morris etc's JOB IS TO GET TD and FG's! WHY bash a team who is doing there job?

 

[Fran]

Tom Brady is from Michigan.

That automatically makes him a corrupt and horrible person. Bastard

Because Coaches are suppose to be held to a higher standard.

If you want to look at it mentally, then I could see that easily be a rallying cry for the Cowboys IF they do meet up in the future.

There is no real defense for Bills move.

 

[Memphis Slim]

And please tell me what they could do in 19 seconds?????

How about kick a field goal??

 

[Excel]

This duel added like 15 pages to this thread!

Anyways the game was closer than the scoreboard shows; thats for sure; however...

Cowboys got LUCKY.

1. Maroney didnt play; and like I said; Morris alone would be ineffective (wtf happened to him he better be ight).

but more IMPORTANTLY...

2. Despite throwing for 5 touchdowns and 388 yards and 5 touchdowns; Brady did not play well. He was off the entire first half; hell he over throw a sure TD pass to Moss who was as wide open deep as hell be all year. He threw a good 5-6 dead balls on screens.

Had he been his normal self in the first half like he was the 2nd; he woulda had 450 yards and 6-7 touchdowns.

3. Lucky breaks. They had about 20 penalties for 100+ yards. Moss "dropped" a highlight reel touchdown catch.

Point being; the game was closer than the scoreboard shows; BUT both sides-especially the cowboys-can play better; A LOT better.

 

[Ass Assassin]

Wade should have kept his goddamn mouth shut this week and maybe Bill wouldn't have dropped that extra TD on his ass

You're preaching to the choir on that one.....I grew up in a family of football coaches.....

You give the other team absolutely nothing in the beginning the middle or the end......

*don't help them up, its zapping your strength, and helping them keep theirs...

*don't take your eyes off of theirs, it shows weakness...



Now, had he ran the score up say....+ 50 points, then sure....jerk....

This was just being a coach....
