Reading comprehension...it's a good thing.

I never said, or even implied, that there should be a limit. That was brought up by your fellow New England fanboy.

Secondly, you are missing my point almost entirely. There's a huge difference between healthy competition and being an asshole on the field, and everyone who saw the game knows which side this one falls under. Stop making excuses for your jerk of a coach.

You quoted and agreed to his question of putting a cap.

So you want a team to give their opposing team a chance to score and eventually comeback and beat your team? The Red Skins played poorly. They turned the ball over four times, the Patriots did what they practiced all week and outscored their opponents.

False; reread my post before telling me what I did or did not write.

Did anyone in North America honestly think that the Redskins were going to come back and win...ever? No. There is simply no excuse for that kind of mercenary play-calling. All it accomplished was to portray BB as a tiny, angry man with a chip on his shoulder.

Let's get back on topic.

I pick the Colts. Yes, the Pats have the #1 offense and most points and most TDs and etc. But lets break down their opponents. They have won a game against each of the teams in their division: Miami with 0 wins, Jets who have only beaten Miami, and the Bills who have 3 wins 2 of which were against the Jets. Cleveland, Cinci, and SanDiego all struggled at the beginning of the year agains everyone (Cinci still is). Washington was picked by most to finish last in the NFC East. Dallas lost the game more than New England won. Did you see all the third-down conversions that got called back for penalties? I think Dallas converted nearly every third-down at least once, it just never counted. It was amazing Dallas hung in there as long as they did the way they played that game. Granted, they were out their top DBs and linemen to injury and were a short week.

Now the Colts: 2 wins over the Titans and Jaguars (the two top teams in the AFC if you discard the Pats and the Colts). Jags have only lost to the Titans and Colts. They beat EVERY team in the NFC South and Denver (who came soo close to beating the Packers).

Colts schedule has been against much more impressive teams. NE has only played one decent team, and that team lost the game rather than the Pats winning it. If the Colts and the pats swapped schedules, the Colts would have the number 1 offense...but they probably wouldn't have as many points. Tony Dungee isn't a jerk or a cheater.
