woo!!
 
Im just pissed at the 9ers for jacking off all season. Im sick of the penalties. I have my main teams, and then I have other teams. I can tell you I hate the COWBOYS, STEELERS, and PATRIOTS.
 
GB killed themselves??...maybe the Pats D had something to say about that. Causing some key turnovers and stopping them in the 4th quarter at the goal line was the difference...kept it at a one possession game. I knew at that point Pats would find a way to win like real good teams do...regardless of how the game is playing out or a performance is going...be it good or bad. Sure Pats kind of stole one lastnite and a rookie QB did some things to bring up thier defensive concerns again. But they made the plays when they had to.
 
I think Pats wisely go hard and for the win against the Bills. Then they could rest, take game off against Phins if they choose? Don't want to risk losing out and end up 12-4 and possibly tied with Jets...I believe Jets would get tie-breaker (less division losses) in this scenerio.
 
I always thought that teams that clinched their playoff position should use those meaningless games much differently. Rather than play the first quarter or half, they should play the last quarter or half. If the subs put the first teamers at a big deficit, that could be both a fun challenge for the regulars, and some experience playing from behind, which the kind of team that locks up their seed before the end of the year probably hasn't had to do often.

We'll see if it happens this year. Atlanta is almost certain to have a meaningless week 17 game against Carolina. Odds are the starters will not play much.
 
And of course there is the rare but intriguing game or two when either a good team lays down or a bad team sucks it completely...not putting up the fight for different reasons? This effecting standings / scenerios both good and bad for playoff bubble teams. This gets teams more the fans going ape-shit!
