Re: Should the Pats be running up the score on everybody in garbage ti

Yes they should and I am absolutely glad they are doing it. I'm tired of everybody being whiny bitches about professional sports. In college, maybe it's a little different. However, this is the pros. If you don't like getting your ass kicked, get better. Period.
No lead is safe. I have no problem whatsoever with all the late touchdowns they have been scoring.
There have been countless times in sports when teams have come back from ridiculous deficits to win. Think of the Bills against the Oilers in the playoffs back in the early 90s. How about the Lakers against the Trail Blazers in the fourth quarter of a Western Conference Finals game? Anybody remember Cleveland overcoming a 12-run hole against Seattle on Sunday Night Baseball a few years ago?
No lead is safe. You should never stop trying to win in my opinion. When a team goes for the throat like they should, people shouldn't get upset about it.
I absolutely love that this is happening right now. I hope they go undefeated and blow out everyone on the way.

I do feel that most 'running the score up' situations are just one side looking for something to be angry about when they are really just pissed about getting their behinds kicked, but if ever there was a case of it in pro football, the Patriots/Redskins had to qualify.
I understand that comebacks happen, as we saw with the Titans/Texans just recently. But 25 points in the 4th is the most that's ever happened in the NFL, right? This was 38-0 in the 4th against the Patriots. There wasn't going to be no comeback. Did we want him to kick a field goal? Yeah, that's right, on 4th down, kick the field goal. The game is over. Even if they block the field goal and run it back for a touchdown, the game is over. There really was no reason for Brady to be in the game. If I was Greg Williams, I would have used any blitz I could think of to try and get a hit on him. Nothing to purposely injure at all. But you want to play the game, fine, let's play the game. What did the Skins have to lose, getting burnt on a blitz for a TD? They scored two more TDs on them anyway.
I'm gonna have fun rooting for the Colts Sunday.
