I would LOVE to hear you explain this. Just give me a sec to grab a beer and put on my tin foil hat.  |
Well, when you are throwing up by more than three scores, its blatent you are taking advantage of a team geared to stop the run in that situation. I wonder why they did that. That is not typical of the Patriots in that situation.
The run plays after the penalty were just pound it at the D, everyone knows what the play is, just stop it. The 4th down run took an easy 3 points off the board. They ran it right at a D geared to stop the run instead.
