Patriots 59-0 win? A few questions on that?

Did anyone else notice that Brady played the whole game, even though Pats were up by loads?

Shouldnt the backup get some reps when the game is clearly won?

Was Brady just padding stats so he can win Comeback Player of the Year??

Any thoughts?

    At some point in time they should have let the towel boy play QB

    i didnt even bother reading the other answers but i know they all say the same ****. BRADY DIDNT PLAY THE WHOLE GAME.he played one drive in the second half and then they put in former free agent Brad Hoyer who ran for a TD. the backups got a half's worth of reps, and Brady did pad alittle when he came back and played that drive after half. he was mainly just practicing to help get his timing back with Moss

    ********* Brian Hoyer not brad and if Brady had stayed in it would have been like 90-0 not 59.

    Brady only played 4 minutes in the second half, so apparently you dont know what you are talking about, if he played the whole game the score could have been something like 73-0

    did you watch the game retard? Brian Hoyer - a rookie no less - came in for the 2nd possession in the 3rd quarter and played the rest of the way.

    All 6 of Brady's TD's came in less than 15 minutes of actual game-clock time. Did they need to keep throwing to win? No, of course not. But Brady's timing has been off all season, and this was like practice against 3rd stringers, so it was a confidence boost.

    The offense has been getting killed in the local media, so this was as much an F-you to them as it was to the Titans.

    Brady came out in the third quarter. Everyone was blasting Brady all year for being off. Everyone says Brady is not what he used to be. He has a game where every thing starts to click and you want him to stop at halftime. Ridiculous.

    He came out with 10:00 to go in the 3rd but the Titans made an undrafted rookie look like Brady. Thats how good the Titans were.

    They did pull Brady out of the game. They should have taken him out at half time though. That win just shows how good the Denver D is. Denver only allowed 17 pts. against the Pats.

    I think it was a good move to take to take him out in the third quarter and to give the back-up some playing time. You can argue that they ran up the score, but if they kept in Brady they could have really have ran it up far worse than what the score was.

    No one noticed that Brady played the whole game, because he didn't.

    He played 1 half and 1 series in the 2nd half. Then they brought in their 2nd string QB (a rookie) and let him get experience (and a rushing TD). He played well with no major mistakes.

    This isnt high school football where kids have fragile psyches. I would have left Brady in and let him smash every single game passing record ever made.

    However, the back up did play most of the second half.

    Brady only played 2.5 quarters of the game. 5 of his touchdown passes were in the 2nd quarter.
