John Harbaugh ridiculed for bypassing kneel-down to extend 100-yard rushing streak

[farn]

Don't like it? Stop them from gaining any yards.

It’s different than going for a TD instead of a FG in a blowout. Nothing wrong with that one. This is for stats. Stats are for losers.

Which games were these? Be specific now.

Buffalo Bills at New England Patriots - January 1st, 2012 | Pro-Football-Reference.com

Buffalo Bills 21 at New England Patriots 49 on January 1st, 2012 - Full team and player stats and box score

www.pro-football-reference.com

Last game of the 2011 season against the Bills.

Pats up 49-21 with 1:30. Hoyer throws a 22-yard reception to Gronk, to get the TE yardage record, before kneeling 3 times to close out the game.

 

[Pape]

Patriots got Gronk the TE yardage record in 2011 by having Hoyer throw him a 22 yard pass instead of kneeling on it.

different type situation, no?

Gronk and Graham were in a battle that year for the record. Going back and forth, week in week out.

The Ravens run with 5 second left to match a record no one heard of or thought about since the 70s? Talk about a vanity play

At this point, winning the game becomes a classless move...

Same crap BB was given in 2007 for going for it on 4th downs instead of kicking a field goal while up by 3 TDs.

Don't like it, play some defense.

What was Tompa's quote back in 2007 when he defended running up scores?
Something like..."It is our job to score every time we are on the field" ?

No doubt Harbaugh haters loved the Patriots revenge tour back in '07 and had very little concern for opposite sideline sadness.
Funny how allegiance can adjust opinion when convenient
