I think it is wrong to not show the entire game, especially since I didn't even care who won.
I'm a Patriots fan and I try to watch every game. I was a bit upset over this.

Yes, the outcome of the game was pretty much decided, but as a fan of a team, I like to see how the backup players perform when they come into a game. In the case of The Patriots, they just re-signed Brian Hoyer as their B/U quarterback and I would have like to watch his performance.
