You know, I never do this and actively preach against it, but with 5 1/2 minutes left in the Bills/Pats, I turned to Kim and said... - David Sep 15, 10:35 14
- Yeah, I turned it off at that point....only to flip back right at the fumble. - Will Hunting Sep 15, 10:38 6
  - It was a combination of a dumb play by the McKelvin and an absolutely magnificent one by Meriwether. - David Sep 15, 10:42 1
    - Yeah, Pats made the plays when they had to. - Will Hunting Sep 15, 10:43
