So, what your saying is, this team at 15-0 is perfect and doesn't need any improvement at all?

Just wondering

Funny thing is, this is the First time I have said much about the offense. It's people like you and joker that keep my post count to 500 while you and I have been on the board the same time. I am not trying to start any fights or war of worlds, just looking at some numbers and trying to understand why they are passing more now than at the beginning of the season.
A little thing like the most points in history by doing what they are doing might have something to do with it, don't you think? It's what seems to be overlooked here, and not just by you.

As for your post count and the rest, you are complaining about a 15-0 team that had won the game by halftime. When you do something like that, you should expect to be called on it. You do realize it was 28-0 at the half, right?

Yep, I watched the game. You realize they couldn't move the ball at all in the second half? They should have been able to score another 28 points in the second half. The win was great, what I have been saying is, they could play and call the game better. The could have easily run over them in the second half but didn't

I remember when the pats were blowing people out and I recall Morris and maroney having a lot more carries to keep the opposing D honest.

I just don't feel we are not really fooling teams of late. Sure, we can outplay most teams on talent.

great post and I completely agree.....mix it up more....keep them guessing....you have the most HIGH POWERED offense in many years....mix it up.....and you will explode......I am still looking for the more frequent dump off to LoMo out of the backfield....I think he is getting underutilized in this area.....because where is he most confident/comfortable? With a little room between him and the defender(s).....where he can "turn on the jets".

You're complaining about tactics in what was a meaningless game. It was won at the half. They had no TE's. They went 4 or 3 wide almost every play. Brady continually shot it to Moss after the game was already decided. They were obviously dicking around and shooting for records.

Stop thinking tactics and start thinking strategy. There is NO good reason to open up the playbook this close to the playoffs in a meaningless game against an opponent that is incapable of coming back to beat you. With the win wrapped up, it was perfect time to just take some deep shots for records, keep the cards close to chest and run the clock out.

Remember though Joke....this is against the doofins.....worst team in the NFL.......(Gawd I love saying that the doofins are the worst team in the NFL!!!!)

Not to take anything away from LoMo.....I am extremely happy for him.....I am glad to see him finally getting his props.....He is a class act for "biding" his time.....and waiting for his moment to shine.......The kid is an awesome talent!!!

You are dead on.......and remember.....Man-GINA...has been referred to as a genius as well.....and we all see how that is working out.......

I am fine with them doing that. But it doesn't explain the 50+ for two weeks and no runs. I am trying to look beyond this game and look at the past 5 games or so, when it "appears" that the offense has been struggling. To me, and evidently, only to me, the offense has been insconsistant with respect to the run game, frequency of use from week to week and in some games.

That's a contradiction. Taking deep shots does not run the clock out.
