I am tired of the Patriots...


I am tired of thier organization and the fact that they have dominated the NFL this season, as well as the last few seasons.

I am tired of them not getting any penalties. They have a great O-Line, but they routinely hold and are almost never called for it; even on blatant late hits (ex. Seymours late hit on Rivers) and etc.

I am tired of teams playing zone and/or trying to prevent the long ball, while Brady picks them apart inside.

I am just tired of them in general. Luckily thier team is aging rapidly while we our rebuilding. I expect us to start peaking while thier team starts to decline.

I could care less about the Cheatriots...all they can do is become the SECOND team to have a perfect season, but we did it first.

While alot of us would like to think that way the problem is if the PATS win the superbowl they won more games than the 72 dolphins.

19-0 thats insane. I hate them with every ounce of my blood honestly, and the fact that they are going to the superbowl and have a FREAKING cakewalk of a season next year (strength of season is pathetic) while times that struggled get Jaw droppers...

This season alone I saw NUMEROUS times the Pats got GAME changing penalty's (Cough Cough Baltimore for one) It really makes me feel like the NFL wanted that undefeated season for ratings alone...Damn be History of the Phins as it did nothing for the bottom line of the league but a PATS run would..

Im so sick of them as well. Mostly Jealous that everything bounces their way. I rooted against them for every game this year.. Nothing worked and EVERY game Phil SIMMS does for them they win. I basically write it off when I see hes the suckup for the day..

I hope Bill Parcells and Tony Spararno have a bug up their collective ***** and make this team the DOMINATE franchise for the next 10 Years!!!

I don't think it's a lock that they will win the Superbowl....the Giants or Packers will have two weeks to get ready and the Pats might end up playing tight as they will have all the pressure on them.

It's the CHEATING that everyone seems to forget that pisses me off the most. Of course I'd be upset that any team (let alone AFCE) goes undefeated but the cheating is the worst part.... ugh.

Even so, I'd still love to be 18-0. Hell we haven't won 18 games in 3+ years

Also correct me if I am wrong but the weasily act of poking an opposing player deliberately in the eye resulted in nothing. Should have been suspended for a playoff game.

The 72 FINS...went undefeated with a back-up qb in 9 games! if the CHEATS would have lose brady for any games we would not be talking bout them.

The 72 FINS ... played the AFC championship game AT PITTSBURGH

the 72 FINS...#1 OFFENSE and #1 Defense!

The 72 FINS...Did not have rules that favored the recievers (no touching after 5 yards)

The 72 FINS...passes the ball only 12 times total to beat the skins

the 72 FINS...DID NOT CHEAT

The 72 FINS....PERFECT

I feel your pain brother, but here's something that might make you feel a little better:
Asante Samuels, Randall Gay, Eugene Wilson, Tedy Bruschi, Junior Seau, Randy Moss and Jabbar Gafney are all UFAs this year.
Although Samuels, Bruschi and Moss are starter, the others are #2 on their depth chart and all contribute significantly.
Samuels already made it known that he'll be looking for that big payday this year. In fact I've got to believe he feels he's worth more than Nate Clements' 80 mill contract.
How about Moss? Does anyone NOT believe that this one year (Patriot discount) wasn't for the purpose of showcasing himself so as to shoot for the most expensive ever WR contract? Moss is always going to be a "I love me" kind of guy and is going to demand a big payday.
If Wilson and Gay aren't locked up to extensions before FA begins someone is going to be willing to overpay. Especially if players like Trufant and Hamlin resign with their respective teams.
Seau may retire
Bruschi may retire.
But whatever happens, they aren't going to be the team they were this past year.
IMO they put this team together as a one (more year) wonder.

A Perfect Season isn't perfect if it's blemished by a cheating scandal. While it may not show up in the W - L columns, it still exists. That is part of their legacy now. They may have won these games, but they also got caught cheating. The Fins did it without any such scandal.

I agree its messed up that they are one of the least penalized teams, I'm surprised they weren't #1(Seahawks were the least). It does seem as though the league wanted them to go undefeated(noticed how the cheating thing was swept under the rug so quickly?).
Here's an article about the Patriot's penalties. http://www.boston.com/sports/article...e_stops_in_07/
