Some good points about scoring as much as possible but if Brady were to get hurt while playing with a 38 point lead, you would all be saying why the eff did Bill leave him in there?
Right?
I say get enough points to win comfortably and then protect the key players.

Of course they would be.
The Colts coming back from a deficit at the start of the third quarter, is WAY different than the Deadskins coming back from a 38-0 hole with 10 minutes left in the game--that's apples to oranges.
The guy wearing #17 and playing QB yesterday didn't look at all like Peyton Manning  |

I think that BB's philosophy is never, NEVER quit, Not even to be polite. Once the habit of quitting is instilled, it won't go away. Besides how many times over the years did we have to endure crushings? One Superbowl stands out. This aint Pop Warner. I do understand protecting the stars though...

I think you run a much larger risk of injuries when you're not playing at 100%, like you should be every play.

Right on, afterhours! This is truly pathetic seeing some in the national media cry like they have been 
Don't want to get embarrassed? Make a stop, make a sack, make a pick! It's the NFL, not A League of Their Own!!!!! Cripes!!!!! 
Can't wait until Sunday!!!!!  |
