Maybe its cause he's the only one watching the games.
Against SD, the game after the scandal broke: with 3 minutes left and a 31-14 lead they go for it on 4th and goal with 3 yds to go.
Buff: With a 38-7 lead and 4 minutes left, they go for it on 4th and 6 on the Buffalo 8.
I'm too lazy to look up the other games but are you guys starting to see a pattern?

What are they supposed to do, kick a field goal? It's pretty standard with a big lead deep in your opponent's territory late in a game to go for it all 4 downs, worst case scenario you make your opponent go 90+ yards.

Exactly. I mean it's one thing if they're throwing Madden-style bombs to Moss on 4th down near midfield. It's another if they're just playing it safe and avoiding a fluke loss. And yes, I've seen more than one Pats game this year [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
