Go Patriots (Take II)!!!

Well, as I mentioned in my last Patriots post, the Pats will play tonight against the New York Giants to finish the season undefeated. With the Giants playoff spot guaranteed and a date with the Tampa Bay Bucs in next weeks playoff game, the Giants have very little to play for.

The big debate this week has focused on the Giants coach Tom Coughlin. Some are saying that he owes it to history to put up a fight against the Patriots. Give me a break, he owes it to his team and to Giants fans to prepare the team for the playoffs. I’m not saying they should roll over and play dead, but to play your starters all 4 quarters in an attempt to defeat the Patriots is pretty silly.

On the other hand, the Patriots have very little (playoff wise) to play for tonight as well. But they do have several records to break:

  • The aforementioned undefeated season of 16-0
  • The single season passing TD record of 49 for Tom Brady (Currently held by Peyton Manning, no relation)
  • The single season TD reception record of 22 for Randy Moss (Currently held by Jerry Rice)
  • The consecutive regular season win streak of 18 (which they already own)
  • The single season team scoring record of 556 points Currently held by the Minnesota Vikings)
