What was the deal with Junior on that 4th and goal at the end. He was charging onto the field, then held himself up, bouncing up and down. I’ll bet he thought he and Vrabel were going to be in on that special goal line package. That the Pats didn’t call it mitigates the piling on charge they’re getting from some quarters. Is Junior fired up or what!!! What a wonderful team to play on. I wonder how many good players on poor teams are telling their agents, “get me on the Pats, I don’t care how.”

the difference was 14 points. If it'd have been 17 points the claim might make sense. The Pats put it in because Dallas has a capable offense. If the Cowboys didn't the Pats would have scored less.
