Do offensive toys create defensive issues? - Page 2 - New England Patriots Forums

In addition to all the reasons given ... heat ... humidity ... rushing leadership ... etc.

there can never be a time in a game when scoring is bad.

So what, if you "give them the ball"? Now THEY must score too or fall further behind.

TOP and "resting your defense" are tactical rules of thumb
that apply to close ... undecided ... games only.

Always take the points when you can get them. And give them the ball.
