Default Polian actually praises Patriots...

http://patriots.bostonherald.com/pat...ticleid=191092

“Their model is to do whatever it takes to succeed,” Polian said. “No matter what they do, it’s the right thing. They’ve always been the gold standard of putting together a team in this salary-cap era.”


That’s what they’re the best at,” Polian said. “If you find a guy that fits your system and you’re paying the right guy, that’s a secret in the salary-cap era. If you’re paying the wrong guy, you’ve spent money on a non-productive player, and that can be a killer.”

wow he actually sounds like a real GM lol.... hes not whining...

He went on to say, "If you crank up the heat you can really wear down their defense too."

Don't worry. When his team loses in the play-offs next season he'll back to whining and changing NFL rules to accommodate his team.

It is easy to be gracious in victory. The true test of a man is whether he is gracious in defeat, and I think you all know how Polian rates on that score.

Wow! Where did you get this quote? I read the BH link and didn't find it.

After the AFC championship game, I emailed many reporters inquiring about the validity of the argument that the Pats were more tired than the Colts primarily due to the Pats wearing regular jerseys (vs. the Colt's thinner jerseys that could helped them a lot in that artifical high temperature) but got no response.

If true, my hats off to the Colts management for utilizing the HFA to the maximum.

Colts could barley beat a depleted pats team. They needed every advantage they could get. Polian is a sore loser. The one time he does not fail all the sudden he is a gracious person. Just wait until he starts losing again.

It's just a ruse. He's trying to lull the Pats into a false sense of security before trying to screw them over in the owners meeting.

I think the poster you replied to was being droll.
