Super Spoiled....if you can

[prinzeofmoval]

Wow it must suck to be a Patriot right now huh? To forever be seen as a trivia question, to choke when it mattered the most. For me the lost was a bitter sweet one. I hoped to see a record broken if not tied but i had no real alliance to anyone but i would've love to see Moss get it. If you had to say one thing to the patriots right now what would you say?


Me: 52-7..october 28....thats called karma belicheat

[I LOVE THE REDSKINS]

nice try

[skinsguy]

What would I say to a Pats fan? Skinsguy said, "Bhaaa haaa haaa haaa haaa!!!!"

[SFREDSKIN]

They will be forever remembered as the almost perfect season and best team ever. The sad thing is that it reminds me of our '83 team that lost to the Raiders.

Well, the secret is out on how to beat the Patriots. Get in Brady's face.

Look for every other team in the AFC East to put a new emphasis on their pass rush.

I've been waiting for the Patriots to lose since Brady's BS sneak on 4th and 1 against the Skins when they were up by a ton. It's extra sweet that ot cost them 19-0 and the Super Bowl.

From now on if someone is untouchable until a championship loss, it ill be said: "They pulled a Patriot"

this is not a secret, its a universal truth. you beat teams by applying pressure in the back field, be it against the run or the qb. Its analogous to saying, "the secret to beating the other team is to have more points when time expires."

What I love is that Brady bristled at Plaxico's prediction that the Pats would only score 17 points. Well, Plaxico was wrong....the Pats only scored 14 points.

That was a secret?

Seriously though, the Giants smothered the pass impressively from a secondary standpoint also.

This wasn't the first time that someone did this to the Pats this year, but it is the first time someone was able to avoid the inevitable for 60 minutes. By shortening the game and running the clock, the Giants were able to keep the score low. Because of that, scoring 14 points in the 4th quarter made all the difference.

If the game was 35-32, 14 points in the fourth quarter likely doesn't make a difference, even if the defense had played relatively well.

For the Pats, this only shows how much of a struggle it will be to get to 19-0. No team, no matter how dominant, will go for an indefinite amount of games undefeated. Not the '72 Dolphins and not this Pats team. The Dolphins almost met their match in their 17th game, and the Pats outlasted that. Unfortunately for them, this wasn't double jeporady, it was 19-times jeporady, and in that case, 18 wins and 1 loss earns you second place.

My exact text to my patriot fan brother:
Cheaters never prosper, greatest upset in NFL history!

How's it feel to get bent over by a manning two years in a row?

I dont know why it was such a secret. Every time I watched them this year and they weren't dominant it was because Brady was getting pressured. Hell they almost lost to an awful Baltimore team because Balt was in his grill for most of the night. They only won because Ryan called off the dogs late in the 4th for some unknown reason and Brady had time to pick them apart.

This is kinda crazy how it's exactly six years to the day after the high powered Rams were considered a lock to cruise to a Super Bowl trophy before the upstart Patriots got physical with him, and punched them in the mouth to claim the Lombardi.

What goes around comes back around I suppose.
