If the NE defense keeps biting on the fake to Williams, then that's their fault. Though, to wit, the one time they DID stop Brown running, he flicked it to Anthony Fasano for a TD. Give Sparano credit for at least recognizing that it's Ronnie Brown or bust.<BR/><BR/>Nothing Bellicheck could have done about it. "Adjusting" to the play would also entail his defenders not overreacting. If Tim Jennings gets burned on a go route, do we now blame Dungy for it? I think this whole thing is just a way to get a few cheap shots in on BB by the sports media at large because it's something they can rankle him about.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and gagging on 19 - 0, not throwing it deep to Moss because you're afraid Matt Cassel will be murdered by Dwight Freeny, the choke job in the AFC championship game in Indy, or how he's not won a super bowl since Crennel and Weis left.

I assume our opponents are smart enough that I can't pull it off 5 times a game (cough cough) but in a game with first graders and a running clock, two guaranteed scores is usually enough to secure a win.<BR/><BR/>I won't sully with Internet with a score prediction, but I think our chances of winning are between 45 and 50%.

Not saying I'm an expert but one thing clear about former NFL players is that they don't always keep up with rule changes. I'm not insisting that's the case here, but just wondering what the actual rules says in this case.
