As a side note, BB should really start pulling the starters much earlier. I mean with such a huge lead, there was no need to have them out. And sure enough, Welker ends up twisting his ankle when the game was practically over at that point.
BB will do what's i nthe best interest of the team. I doubt the NFL told him to keep it in (and the networks switched it out of the prime game late in the 3rd quarter because people didn't care to see the end of it...outside of us Patriot fans).They were probably told by the NFl to keep starters in longer because it was the London game.

But what do you want him to do?
Stick only Edelman and Branch out there with Fells and Vereen?
So, you're going to turn the ball over instantly to defense. And you're going to have your LBs and DBs play more because there is absolutely no depth to spell McCourty, Mayo, Wilson, Hightower and Spikes.
Essentially, you wave the white flag on offense and put the entire load on defense.
