Channing Crowder is the dumbest person in the Western Hemisphere.

Channing Crowder: MVP should be Vick, will be Brady | ProFootballTalk


Now I don't think Brady cares about the MVP, why insult him the week of the game? Didn't he see what happened to Ryan Clark when he got in Brady's grill the week before the game?

Pats score 35+ Brady sits out the 4th qtr.

We just have to try to evaluate them the best we can."

I don't know much about Crowder or his role as a dolphins LB. But I hope he's responsible for covering Gronk. And I hope Brady smokes him for 3 TDs.

HEY BRO! WHAT UP?

I don't think BB is going to want to play his starters for 3 quarters because of that.

It's not worth it.

I see them playing a quarter or until halftime.

But I'll be rooting for BJGE to reach 1,000 yards.

He deserves it.

People keep saying that BB never rests his starters....usually he doesn't but don't forget that in '05 when week 17 came around the Pats were already locked into the 4th (3rd?) seed. Cassel played pretty much the whole game, the Pats lost. People say that nobody ever wins the SB when they rest starters.....the Pats won the next week in the Wild Card round and then lost at Denver in the divisional round. So, did Brady resting affect them in the divisional round but not a week earlier in the Wild Card round??? I'm not saying that BB should rest starters, I'm just pointing out that resting doesn't lose you a game.

I'm not sure what to think of the "resting starters vs. playing them" argument, but we're talking about two different situations. The bye week might make a difference here.

“On a day when they could have had impact players David Terrell or Koren Robinson..they took Georgia defensive tackle Richard Seymour, who had 1 sacks last season in the pass-happy SEC and is too tall to play tackle at 6-6 and too slow to play defensive end. This genius move was followed by trading out of a spot where they could have gotten the last decent receiver in Robert Ferguson and settled for tackle Matt Light, who will not help any time soon.”

2007: Patriots clinch #1 seed, instead of resting they play out rest of season.
Result: Lose in SB

2009: Colts clinch #1 seed, instead of playing out rest of season they rest.
Result: Lose in SB

In conclusion, neither approach is proven to be "right".

A pity this game isn't in Miami............

in 07 we were going for perfection, game should not be used as an example, it portrays an anomaly
