Not shaping up to be a great game, but the Pats' OL is just incredible. Even when they start rookies they're just a wall. Brady's a great QB, but he has TONS of time back there. There's nothing close to pressure on him.

No QB is great without a very good offensive line. That's what always kills me when people say "if we had Brady...Rodgers....Manning...." the past few years. It wouldn't matter, we'd still have a QB getting knocked flat on his ass all game long.

It's a mixed bag. A good QB can make a mediocre OL look very good. The textbook case is Manning lately. But Brady's just sitting there surveying the field. They finally put a hit on him and, shockingly, he threw his second incompletion of the night.

Koppen off on a cart. We'll see how the OL holds up without him.

Brady gave up chasing the guy two steps after the interception! LOL

Henne is no better than Smith. The Niners made a lot of hay with that play last year.

Gotta disagree with you there.

Henne's been a sharpshooter tonight.

"tonight" being the key word. Henne's been wildy inconsistent over his career. At least they give Henne an opportunity. When Smith has been asked to take over a game like with New Orleans, Philly and Houston last year he threw the ball very well. I've never been a big supporter of Smith's but I hope they open it up against dallas and give him a chance.

I indented before saying that for a reason; tonight has nothing to do with the FACT that Henne is a better QB than Alex Smith. Henne had a bad season last year, but it's not like he was playing the Seahawks & Rams twice. He got a double dose of the Pats & Jets.

A reasonable opinion, but I would not call it a "fact".

Mike Pouncey isn't having nearly a good a start as the other one.
