Im not understanding why the their defense did so poorly, though
Is there a worse backup QB than Painter?
I remember people complaining in '09 stating that the Saints were running it up on us. It'll be interesting to see how many of you are still singing the "paid to stop" tune in a few years when Brady and Belichick are gone, we suck, and the other team is running it up on us.
I actually agree with BB, this is professional football. If you can't stop us prepare to be humiliated. BB keeps the players in because that is what they are payed to do, their job.
Like someone said
offense : make points
Defense: stop points
I really doubt when we played you , like Kont said, BB would have slowed the game down if you where beating us as much as we were beating you, but I respect that. You pulled Brady from the game, and SP has some weird thing about just winning, and dosnt care about points or stats.
IF we kept Brees in today, he would have broken a 350 yrd record, and we might have hit the 70's, but SP, and Brees don't care about that , I think.
Personally I don't think BB keeps his players on the field to humiliate people, I think he does it because its there job, and what they are paid to do, and that fine. Its the other teams job to stop them.
So, in my mind BB is just doing his job, and SP is doing the same but just wants the win, so pulls back, but same thing.
.. and I want to point out as a player in college, when your having the best game of your life, you don't want to be pulled. They don't happen very often when everything clicks. So, BB, might be much more of a players coach than SP. Im positive Brady or Brees doesn't want to leave the field when the perfect game is unfolding.
Some of us Pats fans have LONG experience with this. I remember an AFL playoff game in the late 60s where the Chaagiz put 56 on us.
But that was back when men were men, Grasshopper.
Haven't been around that long. I only remember the team being bad under Pete Carroll. Personally, I don't really care. If you don't want the other team to score, man up and stop them. I was more or less commenting on how many opinions would (and did) change if another team was running it up on us. I got a good laugh out of that Saints gameday thread a couple of years ago.
