Jets are 1-3 against teams with winning records. Enough said.

Yep, I've been high on NE since watching the entire Pittsburgh game. Brady has a bonfire lit under his ass, he definitely is playing some inspired ball now. Would love to see Brady against Matty Ice in the SB, two best teams in the NFL right now IMO.

it could have been 2 touchdowns worse easily.
Yep, wasn't exactly running up the score with Sanchez' 3 picks and a complete absence of Jets defense. Could have been 59-3 easy.

The game could have got out of hand and Brady could have taken a shot. There was no good reason to leave him out there IMO. Didn't have anything to do with running up the score.
Not about the win, it's about earning the right to finish the game. All they did was hand off the ball, not a high risk for Brady getting hurt.


Do you take out your best players in a hockey game when the score is out of reach? No, and there's a worse chance of those players getting hurt than a QB handing off the ball to a running back.



Something to think about...

What if the Jets and Pats are tied at the end of regular season? They have both won one game apiece this year head to head. The next tie break after that is point for the playoffs. Something to think about.

The next tie breaker is division record.

Points are number 9 on the list...

TO BREAK A TIE WITHIN A DIVISION

If, at the end of the regular season, two or more clubs in the same division finish with identical won-lost-tied percentages, the following steps will be taken until a champion is determined.

Two Clubs

Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs).
Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division.
Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games.
Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference.
Strength of victory.
Strength of schedule.
Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed.
Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed.
Best net points in common games.
Best net points in all games.
Best net touchdowns in all games.
Coin toss

just like any other qb, they ALWAYS want to be in there for the full 60 minutes.

As for running up the points, the in 07 Bill had something to prove, and held the throttle to the floor for the entire season. There was a lot of talk about running up the points then too. However, what would have been said if they came out in the 4th up 8765372 points, then took three knees and punted it for the rest of the game?

This team is VERY young, and has been having trouble finishing. Bill gathering the whole team on the sideline before the forth saying that we're playing this whole game is something that Ive never seen him do for any reason. Maybe this was just a lesson for them to never give up? They definitely have almost let a few teams take the win by pulling back and coasting when up by a large margin this year.

I do wish that the Jets actually showed up to play last night though, what a dud for the game proclaimed to be the "game of the year"

Good to know, points do matter though. But still don't think they ran up the score.

The U sure does bring out some punishing players *wishing the Skins still had Sean Taylor* but as for the Pats running up the score, when its grown men playing football I don't think anyone should be crying about running up the score. The point of beating your opponent is to take the life and the fight out of them, in any game. So if I am wooping someones ass, I would never let up in any given situation because I want to make sure the will to fight has been completely bashed out of them for the rest of the season.

Skins have been raped a couple times this season, and we all see how their playing now LOL

Fully agree. It's the fucking NFL and featured two winning teams. It's your fault that you didn't prepare enough. The only reason I might say something about running up the score is if it was against some hapless team, and even then who cares. Am I really supposed to care that a bunch of rich grown men have their feeling hurt?

What made it even better is all the shit that arrogant fat fuck Rex Ryan talked...just made it all that much better. I was smiling from ear to ear watching it

The NFL moved Monday night's game between the Minnesota Vikings and New York Giants to Detroit after the Metrodome's roof collapsed in a winter blizzard.

Kickoff at Ford Field will be 7:20 p.m. ET.

Ticket holders for the original Giants-Vikings game will be admitted and given preferred seating along the 50-yard line. Free general-admission tickets will be available at the Ford Field box office beginning at 9 a.m. ET.

Let's see if they can put up a pass rush on Brady and not give him the 50 years he has in the pocket.
