People and media who say they're running up the score can eff off.
How soon they forget the Colts spanking the Patriots for something like 35 points in the second half of the AFC game last year.
Points and come backs happen. Obviously at some point you pull Brady to protect the franchise, but otherwise go wild. I completely agreed with putting Brady back in after that Cassell interception last week. Maybe that's just the paranoid New England sports fan in me, but it made sense.
Also, if they want to make a point after being crucified for "spygate" I'm all for it. National media and Patriots haters are getting what they deserved. They should have known making a bigger deal out of it then what it was would bite them right in the ass by fueling a team that has always played well when they feel persecuted. Belichick himself couldn't have dreamed up a better way to motivate the team...
