There's no advantage of being down 4 compared to down 5 (2 field goals or 1 TD sans PAT is necessary to take the lead), while there's a big advantage of cutting the lead to 3.

Don't agree... down by 4... Carolina gets a touchdown with 2 minutes to go... NE marches, kicks a field goal at the gun and wins. Down by three means it goes to OT.

OUTRAGE AT CBS AFTER JANET BARES BREAST DURING DINNER HOUR; SUPER BOWL SHOW PUSHES LIMITS

**Exclusive**

Top CBS executives approved a musical skit where Janet Jackson would expose her breast during the MTV-produced Super Bowl half-time concert, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

"It decision to go forward, went to the very top of the network," a well-placed source explained from New York.

The groundbreaking scene came during the most-watched television broadcast of the year -- and during the dinner hour for the nation's west coast viewers.

In a press release before Sunday's game, CBS's sister outlet. [VIACOM's] MTV promised "Janet's Shocking Moments."

"I'll get you naked by the end of this song," sang performer Justin Timberlake, moments before he ripped off Jackson's top, exposing a bare breast -- the nipple covered by a tassel.

CBS's main New York switchboard was immediately bombarded with complaints about the stunt, netowrk sources said late Sunday.
