Thumbs-up to the Patriots

27-0....time for bed. I have to get up at 5:30.

This has been a great night for football.

Grandson throws 3 TD's and runs for a fourth. His teams wins 38-8. Come home just in time for the pats and they win 27-0 after a week of listening to the naysayers. 19-0 Baby....One for the thumb.

And there are some that think we will be better off facing Miami.....

Things are going to get very interesting in Foxboro between now and Saturday. Danny Amendola rejoined the team yesterday and told anyone who would listen that he's healed, rested and ready to play. He looked very good in practice according to all reports.

Think about it.......who gets left off the active roster this weekend?? Can only have 48 active players.

If the Pats keep all of the WRs active, it would be a pretty tough group to defend.
Amendola, Edelman, Hogan, Mitchell, Floyd
Bennett and Lengel at TE
Can you imagine how this would be with Gronk out there? Holy shit!!!!!

I'm thinking that BB may sit Mitchell and let him have another week off to rest his ankle/leg. I don't think they really need him until next week.

If Amendola can return kick offs then Cyrus Jones will sit along with Geno Grissom and DJ Foster. After that it's guys we forgot were on the team, L. Waddle OT, T. Karras OL, Scruggs TE, Justin Coleman CB.

What else is there to talk about??

I think all WR dress. If we get up big, I don't think we see Dola and JE11 out there. I would let Dola return punts and that it is for right now. Let him get his feet wet. I think BB would be hard pressed to sit Floyd, esp if we can get him more reps late in the game if needed. I think Jones might be the one to sit, or shit, maybe Dola is the one to sit it out...as usual, BB will have us scratching our heads when the inactive list comes out.

How bad can the Patriots play?????

Brady gets intercepted because he led Floyd a bit too far. Houston kicks their 2nd FG.

Pats go up 7-0 on good offensive series and the Lewis runs a KO back 98 yards. Since then the Patriots have played terrible.

Then Lewis fumble the kickoff on the 7yard line and the Texan take it in for a TD 14-13.

The only way they lose this game is exactly the way they're playing right now.

Now it's the Pats having problems moving the ball 3rd and 5 and Brady runs around and gets sacked.

This is the worst football I've seen them play all year.

Patriots offensive line sucks yet again tonight

 

[jonvi]

The line doesn't suck as much as the Houston D is no joke. NE is gonna have to earn this tonight. I'm sure they know now they are in a bit of a dog fight so I expect to see more scoring from Brady in the second half.

For Houston to win this, their D is going to have to do it. The Houston offense has had a bunch of opportunities and is still down.
