It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Right but the 4 WR shotgun to open the 2nd half up 42-0 was a little over the top. Don't get me wrong, I loved it, I think Belichick is a f*cking bad ass and I love him as a coach. But . . . you know.My answer is the same as it was 10 times in 2007- Play better and you won't get blown out.
No one should have any problem with one professional football team running up the score on another professional football team. This isn’t high school or college.
These are grown men, all well-paid professionals, with huge coaching staffs and equal resources. The Titans may be winless this year, but they went 13-3 last season. In the NFL, if you don’t want to get embarrassed like that, you should do something about it.

"He did take Brady out in the middle of the third. And what exactly do you want a football team to do, take a knee on every play? He could’ve tried a field goal on a couple fourth downs if he just wanted points.
Sure, it was total destruction, but if Belichick chose, he could’ve gone for the NFL record, Chicago’s 73-0 win over Washington in the 1940 title game...."
So basically you don't think we did anything wrong and there is no point in your article
What were we meant to do, just give them the ball back?
Absolutely no complaints about this article. He's right:
Those games weren't exactly 42 point games, although I do get the point.Didn't read the article, but disagree with this comment. BB knows better than anyone that you take nothing for granted in the NFL [see '06 AFC Championship, SB 42 etc].

Brady told D&C that HE felt it was important to work out his kinks and show that the O could play well after halftime, something notably bad in both the Jets and Donks losses. Once that was done, any psychological hurdles were overcome and time to move on to a UDFA rookie at QB.
Running up the score woulda meant BB challenging the really bad call on the safety.
3) Use common sense when running plays with a big lead. Don't throw deep, don't kick field goals and don't blitz.
