Ran up the score in the last moments of the Cowboys game, when they already won the game?

That's life. Dallas has done that to other teams before, but now when we get it done to us, it doesn't feel too pretty. But hey, no need to get upset. NE Patrats aren't making it to SuperBowl XLII: DALLAS COWBOYS ARE! ALLL THE WAYYY!

Whenever anyone asks a question to which the NE fans disagree, the fans directly insult your knowledge of the game. It is a valid question to ask, considering the Patriots have scored a lot of points this year in the last 5 minutes of a game, which is generally when the losing team is throwing passes out of desperation, or if the winning teams have the ball, they generally try to run out the clock. My opinion is that a lot more rushing goes on by the team that is so far ahead that the game is out of reach, but the Patriots still do a lot of passing, but you never want to question the Patriots, the fans will eat you alive!
It is only football, and everyone is entitled to an opinion. Your opinion is just as valid as anyone else's.
With that said, I can't blame the kid for wanting to score a touchdown!

Actually, it was less about "running up the score" than is was a symbolic tribute to Belichek's dad and support for our armed forces. You see the 4th string RB who got the ball for the TD went to Navy and served our nation.
So, this was an opportunity at the end of the game to give the guy a chance to score an NFL touchdown--and to pay homage to Belicheck's dad who coached Navy. This guy probably will not have a lot of chances to do that in the NFL, I thought it was actually a wonderful gesture.
There's sometimes something behind the headline. You should not be mad--especially since it's much less disrespectful than half of the stuff T.O. has done (including the display TO had a few years back in the middle of the Cowboy's star!).

you must be new to football. You see, when you take a knee on 4th down, the clock actually stops because the ball is turned over on downs. Taking a knee at 0:13 left would NOT have ended the game, so instead of risking an INT with a pass play, they decided to go with a basic run play that was intended to run out clock but resulted in a TD.
A real cowboys fan would have moved on and realized there is still 10 weeks left of a great season

That was just fuel for the fire man. Don't think that Dallas wont be thinking about that during every practice. Can you say motivation? Most Pats fans wont agree, but I would bet that Pats players would give Dallas some respect. Especially the ones that Marion Barber stuffed his arm down their throat!!

I am a Dallas Fan and I don't think they ran up the score they just couldn't run the ball on the Dallas Defense so they keep passing.

n.e. jerkoff fans (like this brianaglr joker) lmfao...you gotta love'em..well maybe you dont at least they dont live near me anyway yes i think it was classless but what else would you expect from the patsies, they could have taken a knee on third down the cowboys had no more timeouts but thats the difference between coaches like bilicheat and class coaches who dont show up opponents or run up the score to support their overinflated egos

Don't you think that was the smart ting to do. Considering most fans like you claimed that
"Romo can get a touchdown from anywhere at any point in the game"

We're talking about the Cowboys.

The Cowboys did far more trash talking than the Pats...and even after the game, the moron who said the Pats D was not that good (I think it was Crayton) was trashing a team that just kicked HIS teams A*S...
I don't think the Pats ran it up...but if they did, the Cowboys deserved it...

No I mean the game was closer than the score showed. Also I mean it was the job of our defense to stop them.
