The big frustration is a D that allows 21 in less than 20 minutes but then shuts them out for over 40 minutes. Why do they need to get in the hole to start playing? I could see if they just plain stink and allow two TD's a quarter the whole game but it seems once there back is against the wall they play some D. Trouble with that satrategy is that the O can't always score 50 points for you.

Anyway , it makes me shake my head (but with a victory smile) afterwards but it does put you on the edge of your seat during.

That must kick the heart right out of their opponents. One minute you're up 3TDs and the next you're behind and getting behinder. I've often wondered if it's the NFL version of the rope-a-dope.

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

Patriots D line..is "the Replacements"

BackbeachJake.........I love that getting behinder.

You have to admit the D line is rather disheveled. They have more people playing for them this year on the D line than they had actors in the movie "The Replacements".

Belicheck should have as an invited guest at the next game Gene Hackman.
