So what are we supposed to do w/15 mins left? - New England Patriots Forums

It's a blowout. Are we supposed to run, run, run, punt? I'm sick and tired of hearing people blast us for doing what our offense is supposed to do. Score!

There are so many similar blowouts throughout NFL history.... Why are the Pats the only ones taking **** for it?

I don't believe this to be true but...

Take the starters out.

Brady came out with 8:whatever minutes left to play.. same as manning

We've won every single game this season by blowing out our opponents. If we were to just sit on a lead like these haters suggest, we would not only not be undefeated, Brady and the first string offense who just came together this year would have played an equivalent of 2 games sitting on the sidelines.

The Pats will stop trying to score when the other team stops trying to score. Otherwise, play the game and stop whining!

We put Matt Cassel in the game with 8 minutes to go. Brady and Moss were both out of the game. Their D still could not stop us.They couldn't stop our back up QB. The guy rushed for a TD. They couldn't stop that?
That sounds like it's their problem, not ours.

Because we're better than that. It at least I thought we were.

They hate us for our freedom (and our coach, our QB, our receivers, our defense, etc....).

When the other team stops playing, we can stop playing. As far as I'm concerned, the Skins were still competing evidenced by the onside kick and TD in garbage time.

I have a question. Did we have the personnel in the 4th quarter to milk the clock with a minimal passing game? I mean our blocking TE was out. I think we only had Rivers as our only healthy TE. And our RBs were not doing all that great. So what are we supposed to do? You've got to take what the defense gives you.
