Do you think Belecheck is bitter at the league for comming down on him hard for the NYJ filming incident? And if so, do you think that he is taking it out on the league by pounding teams like an NCAA division 1 team does to a division 2-3 team?

If the other teams can't stop the Patriots from scoring, during the course of a game, it's not the Patriots fault. It is the fault of the coach/players of the opposing team.
What are the Patriots supposed to do, when they have the ball, stand there and drink tea? They are doing what they are supposed to do, they are making plays and scoring points, that is the purpose of the game.
Perhaps the opponents should play teams they are equal to, but I think they've exceeded the age requirements for Pop Warner.

No, I don't think that is the case at all. I'm not a Patriots fan. They are merely trying to break the record for the most points scored in a season. They have already broken the record for team scoring through ten games. You only get this opportunity once in a career and they're trying to make sure their record will be very hard to break in the future. They have the tools to do so and in the meantime many individual records are being broken also. Terrell Owens had four receptions for touchdowns in the game yesterday. Randy Moss had four receptions for a touchdown in the first half alone.

No, I don't think that at all.
The Patriots have the weapons and they are using them. If I'm the coach, the regular season is essentially a 16 game practice for the playoffs. I just signed Stallworth and Moss, so my impetus would be to get them working so that they can get familiar with Brady.
They are doing that very well, and Coach Belichick is ruthless. I admire that in any athlete or coach. I never think that any team is any lock for a championship but the Patriots are the closest thing to it in my mind.
As for the videotape incident, perhaps the Pats are just trying to prove that they can win without the video. But I really doubt it. They are a tremendously talented team that is hitting on all cylinders.

If you think the Bills game was bad, you ain't seen nothing yet.
Belichick laid off of Buffalo because he knows and respects Dick Jauron, but Mangina (Mangini) on the other hand..........
Everyone should watch the Jets game on 12/16, it is probably the best chance the Patriots have of beating Chicago's 1940 record of worst blowout in NFL history. It will be a revenge game for Belichick, and revenge is a dish best served cold.
I see that one getting UGLY, and Bill won't pull Brady and Co., nor will he run the ball, or play soft zone in the 4th.
New England 76
New York Jets 0

I don't really think they're running up the score on purpose...Its the defense's job to stop the offense...But they are gonna try to dominate teams...and to a degree, I do think they have a chip on their shoulder about the video thing...As far as the scores, they are gonna try to stay sharp for the playoffs...Don Shula didn't help the rest of the league by bringing up the video thing when talking about their chance at an undefeated season...It makes him as much of a poor sport as Belichick against the Jets

No. too be honest im tired of people talking bout the patriots being evil and this and that after they demolish there favorite team.The truth is its football, and Bellichick was fine by the NFL bcuz going by the rules he had to see some consequences.SO he figures since it was all business when he gotfined. Its gonna be all business when he demolishes a team 54-7.Its not running up the score its showing respesct to the other team that ur not gonna give up on them.

First off, the league DID NOT punish him like they should have. Beerbellichick should have been suspended or something because a slap on the wrist doesn't hurt, but a kick in the pants does. Now, he can still continue to cheat, if he feels the need, and also, he's just a classless man overall. At the end of the Indy game, he didn't even shake Tony Dungy's hand because he wanted to get straight to the media. Talk about classy [not]. The Pats don't need to run up the score by 46 points to make a statement. That's just rude.

Yes, they are giving it to everyone because of what the league fined them for...but it is an even game and these other teams should be preparing themselves to play THE WHOLE GAME. The Pats seem to get up by a touchdown or two and these other teams roll over. They are deserving of theese ***-whoopin's

Yes!!
He is on a mission to disprove that them getting caught using a camera in the 1st quater of the first game does not make him a cheater for the entire season.
He is basically telling the league look We only used a camera in1 outta 64 total quarters of football (4q x 16 games)
The stupid camera was not making us win, I'll prove it.
Goes to show how good of a coach this guy is. BB will go down as one of the best coaches ever

So what if he is? Is the league gonna change the rules and make running up the score illegal too? Shut up and deal with it. Want Bill to stop beating you up? Go work out and get better. Stop running home crying to mommy.
