Wow! Are all of you people REALLY this stupid?! Who would pull their starters at halftime?! C'mon. Be serious. A 28 point lead with a whole HALF left to play! And if you were actually watching the game, you would have noticed that in the 2nd half Pittsburgh RAN the ball on 1st and 2nd down (unsuccessfully for the most part) and then passed on third down to try to get the first down. Textbook grinding down the clock.
You Pats fans HATE having fingers pointed at you, but you're sure quick to start pointing fingers yourselves (refs paid off, pumping noise into RCA, other teams "running up the score", shall I go on??) It's really becoming pathetic.
I really don't have a problem with "running up the score", but I agree that it's not wise to keep your studs in the game when the game is clearly in the bag, (4th quarter, up by more than 30). I don't think anyone who actually knows football would suggest pulling starters at HALFTIME with a 4 possession lead.
This thread basically amounts to people acting like 2nd grade girls, saying "Well, he did it too!" when caught doing something wrong. Get a grip people.....
