i dont understand the double standard. the colts have run up the score for years. most teams run up the score. the packers did last week.

Plenty of teams have run up the score before, but nothing remotely like the Pats going for it on 4th and 1 while up 35-7 and again 42-10. That is unprecedented in the NFL.

this is what bugs me about people who argue that 'there is no such thing as running up the score.' its a [censored] relative concept not an absolute one. if 90% of the league was running shotgun plays with 30 point leads in the 4th quarter then there would be no such thing as running up the score. since it has gotten this 'unclassy' negative connotation to go with it people get too defensive when it is mentioned. and yeah there have been all kinds of teams that have done it before patriots are in no way the first.
