Yeah why trust a guy thats got you 3 big fat superbowl rings

The year we were "found out" we won 18 games in a row

I think you will find we won the AFC Championship

but what has that got to do with us "cheating" ?

Im quite looking forward to seeing how Favre does tonight even after all the saga of the will he/wont he retire I have to admit that Im suprised how much I cant wait to see it

Not at all but if you remember when it first came to light the NFL stated that it wasnt against the rules and it was more of an unwritten rule that was frowned upon(whatever the hell that means) . In my book anyone would of/ probably has done the same thing and the pats have been made an example of(rightly so IMO I dont see what good it would do anyway in a game situation where nothing ever happens the same as practice), lets face it no one else will admit to it after they saw the fine that the pats got.

I must admit I find it very strange that something supposedly as big as this has never really been talked about after the incident, if it was as serious as people on here make out they would have been banned from the play-offs and not just a pointless first round draft pick taken away that we generally trade away anyway IF they made the playoffs

In America it seems the only people bothered were Jets fans as if they would have beat us in that game anyway
I dont hear any Rams fans saying anything about the super bowl

I think what was worse about the SB loss was the tactics used by the Patriots defence on the field of which their continued use actually pretty much led to the rules on pass interference being changed and being enforced a lot more stringently. Our passing game was destroyed by their defensive backs who were roughing up our wide receivers all game. Given that fact, you could say the Patriots were very lucky to get to and win the SB that year given the controversy surrounding the "tuck rule" in the Divisional playoff game against Oakland.

As for Bellichick, he's a fantastic coach but he's a complete bell end who I have little respect for. There's plenty of great coaches in various sports who I dislike (Alex Ferguson, etc), but few who I think would go to the sort of lengths that he would go to, to win.

Give over there is only 1 thing that matters in sports WINNING if you dont win you lose if you lose you lose your job

Therefore anyone would anything to get the win whether people choose to believe it or not

When it comes to the Superbowl pass interference I think it was very clever and the fact that they used it to their own advantage to win and upset the favourites just proves what a smart coach Belicheck is

We give you a chance to get back into the game when Willie McGinnest held/basically tackled Faulk on the line when Warner fumbled
