To put this in baseball terms, it's like stealing a base in the 8th inning when your team has a 12 run lead...
And you know the next guy to come to the plate is going to have the ball thrown at his head...

1. The game is 60 minutes of football. That is what the Patriots played..
2. The object of the game, is to score more points, by moving the ball down the field, while the opponet tries to stop you. Is it the Patriots fault, that the Bills (and other teams) were ill prepared to do this?
At what point in a game, is the "offense" supposed to look at a score, and say "ok, we've scored enough, you take the ball and score a few, so we can score more.. let us know when you're done, and we'll play some more. That is so pathetic.
3. Tom Brady, and most of the starters, came out of the game in the 4th quarter. They were practically handing the ball to Buffalo, and they couldn't deal with it.
When Hobbs intercepted the fumble on the last play, was he expected to hand them the ball, and say "you dropped this"?
4. They went for 4th and down, in order to give the Bills a chance to get the ball, and maybe do something with it. If they had simply kicked a field goal, the results would have been the same, more fussing about the score.
5. Many of the fans, of other teams, are the most violent low life forms I have encountered, calling for cheap shots, murder and bodily harm. They indulge in slander, and inuendo. What they need to do is grow up and act as adults. Talk about lack of class... they are the epitomy of classlessness.
I've yet, to hear a Patriots fan, calling for the harm of another individual.
6. The so called "Cheating" was an infraction of a new rule. It was a common practice, and still is, you can tape the sidelines from anywhere else in the stadium, just not where it had been. The NFL punished the team, and the coach for this infraction. The NFL also deemed that the tapes, in no way effected the outcome of the game.
Therefore no actual cheating took place, only the intention to cheat... I'm sure there are many things you intended to do, which you did not do.. what are you guilty of ???
Grow up.. if you can't deal with your team's loss to the Patriots, perhaps watching competitive sports isn't for you. HGTV has some nice shows you can watch.

This is simple. The pats are a solid team, you admitted it. But really though when a team is up by 21 going into the 2nd quarter, they are not running up the score, rather they are playing harder out of the gate. I'm sure the Bills were hoping for a upset but let's be serious, not a person on that team believed they were going to take down the Pats. Who scored after the first half for the Patriots last night? Oh yeah, Benjamin Watson, a good tight-end but definitely not a stud. Kyle Eckel also scored from one yard out. Okay so two players that get no recognition. Now the third was on a fumble recovery by Ellis Hobbs. That's not running up the score rather playing hard. And for leaving Brady in, that's because he's the spiritual leader and makes everyone play harder. Matt Cassel came into the game with 11 minutes to play in the 4th quarter. And they still scored after that.
Secondly if Brady beats Manning's record then you most definitely deserved it. He has got an outstanding receiving core which is helping him enormously. Brady is the best at dropping back and settling in and hitting his targets. He's got the best decision-making I've ever seen, and knows when to throw the ball away. He's a tremendous athlete and not many people give him credit for what he's doing.
NO I'M NOT A PATRIOTS FAN!

Why do people have so much hatred for the patriots, as an Atlanta fan the last thing i want to see is a QB doing well unless hes playing for us. but you can do nothing but sit back and admire watchin the patriots play....i mean you cant be a real football fan if you dont enjoy everything the patriots are doing this year!
Didnt you watch the game last nite. al michaels made a great point...When they went for it on 4th down twice that wasnt running up the score, kicking a feild goal would have been running up the score, they went for it and gave the bills a chance to turn them over on downs and they couldnt capitalize so its there own fault!
and as for your comments on them leaving in Brady just for records why did they run the ball and give maroney the 1st TD ? and also at the end of the game Tom Brady could have quite easily thrown TD pass number 6 but instead they run the ball with Kyle Eckel these clearly arent the actions of a Coach and QB who only want Peyton Mannings td record, The Pats do what they have too to win a football game and it just so happens there fantastic passing the ball so why shouldnt they pass all the time, did u complain last year wen all san diego did was run the ball with LT ? did u feel LT was being cheap when he broke the record just coz san diego run the ball all the time.
Id love to see you watching your team play....wot do u do wen there winning ? sit there with your arms folded, crying and feeling sorry for the opposing team. Just let the patriots fans enjoy their teams success.
And this isnt just pats fans posting, this is Football fans, and people that admire the game and admire seeing the greatest offence and QB to ever take the feild! so just sit back and enjoy the show coz i for one feel they fully deserve everything they get!

The only way they couldn't have scored last night would have been to take a knee starting in the 3rd quarter.... KYLE ECKEL was running the ball.
The Bills could have pulled their starters too you know so they didn't get hurt either.
GET OVER IT, IT'S THE NFL NOT YOUR LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL.
I'm so sick of crybabies calling the Patriots a classless organization when they devote so much to charity and good causes around the New England area. Also, what's fun about watching Matt Cassell throw the ball to Jabar Gaffney or hand off to Kyle Eckel? If I'm paying to go to a game, I wanna see the best players play the game.

First of all I see what you're saying but since when are teams in the NFL supposed to and I quote "stop giving a hoot"??? I understand that they were getting beat but what's up with everyone thinking that football games are only 30 minutes long????? Games are 60 minutes long and piss on the Bills and all the other teams for giving up so soon and thumbs up for the Patriots doing their job and staying on top of their game! If the Bills beat the Pats by that many points, of if the Bills could beat anybody for that matter you'd be singing a different tune. I was hoping the Pats would beat them 96 -10 now that's football!!! but it didn't happen...maybe next time.

Belicheat actually told reporters that his dad told him to run up the scores. If the defense can't stop us, then we will run up the score. I think that the he was just pissed because they made them play Sunday night figuring the Bills would give them a better game than the Colts did. The football gods are planning their revenge on the Pats and it will be grand when it does happen.

Listening to the whiners, snivelers and losers ***** about the Pats is getting as annoying as the green dot idiots. Give it up, move on. BTW I'm a Raiders fan so I have as much right to hate the Pats as anyone, and I do, but they sure are awesome.

IT IS THE PROs... It's not fair that they can score and the other teams can't against them. The players are ALL professionals. What do you want the Patriots to do, put on every 1st down after Half time? WTF...
The Patriots can't take out every starters, there are only so many reserves on the roster.
The joke is not that the Patriots are winning by a big margin, the joke is you crying out it.
"lame" "show a little sportsmanship" How about the other teams for not playing like a PRO team?

You need to stop crying....
I'm not even a Pats fan but what do you expect in a football game? Who takes their star QB or WR out of the game in the 2nd quarter or 3rd quarter. The Pats can't help it if they are up by 30 before half time. These other teams need to play defense. Do you know what happens to a player when he plays only 2 quarters or 3 quarters every game? He gets sloppy, he gets out of shape, then he gets hurt. Plus they went for it on a 4th and 1, who doesn't go for it on a 4th and 1? Man up and quit complaining.
