Sportsmanship? Naw. Was anybody hoping we'd get to 50 points?

Once it became apparent we would win I wanted no injuries and starters removed…short week. And Micah did get his ankle rolled on that could have been serious.
 
i dont believe in sportsmanship outside of handshakes and respect after the game

during the game you score until the clock says 0
 
I've never thought that letting up on the gas ever had anything to do with sportsmanship. Once there's no chance the other team can win, you might put in your second string, but that's to give them some playing time and to protect your starters from getting hurt.

I've always thought sportsmanship had to do with things like playing fair, not to hurt anyone on purpose, talking respectfully about your opponent in the media, handshakes before and after the game, etc. If a team wants to avoid the embarrassment of a lopsided score, then they should prevent that team from scoring.

dang your profile pic of Jerry after way too much sun and fun....reel it in Jerrah
 
Why is # 11 in a 40-3 game . On a short week no less . Cmon Mike Mac .

:huh:

we better not go into Scizophrenic mode of how we lost to GB then how we demolish Vikings then we have something wierd occur tomorrow and we lose?.....but that has basically been our ride for a while
 
I did not care about getting 50 but did not want to see Minn get a TD. Mission accomplished.
 
I was hoping we could make it to 32. Oh wait, that was the previous week.
 
I don't care if we didn't score more. 40 was enough. I'm just glad we didn't soften up and allow more points.
 
A part of me wanted more but the most of me wanted to pull players in the 3rd qtr to rest them for tomorrow
 
40-3 was a destruction of a highly touted team.
I have to admit, cads, I started wishing we could have stretched it to 50-3!

Pollard! Congrats on becoming our RB of choice!

Well, if your beating up a team 35+ points they might switch it to another meaningless game. Jerry can't have that happening on his watch.

Consistency consistency. It Hass to begin with the Giants. Tomorrow we should destroy them .none of this roller coaster. The rest of the way.

I think the Giants get demolished

Hilarious. I can't remember what game it was...but it was either NY, Philly, or Wash...sometime in last 3 weeks, and the NFC East team was up by like 13 pts with 2 min left, and instead of punting on 4th down, they went for it....got it...and then threw a pass on 1st down. They didn't score again, but they didn't kneel down either.

I think it was Philly against Hou on a thur night game.

Everyone in here was calling philly classless and poor sports for "rubbing it in"....and all they did was not punt, choosing instead to go for it and run out the clock ... but now I see that "we shoulda gone for 50pts againstVikings" and "no! Make it 60!" when it's us who's winning against an overrated beaten down team.

Ha! No wonder people make fun of us so often: hypocrites, casual fans, whining about refs, etc, they say about us.

I often thought they were unfair stereotypes...but maybe they were right.

I think we should all do a little soul searching....and maybe start practicing what we preach, instead of the whiny, hypocritical, soft frontrunner babies the rest of the NFL fans co sider us to be.

I'd be Thankful indeed if that happened.
