Good game Texans, your D played their hearts out and kept it close in first half. Nice to see Wilfork, Vrabel,Crennel,Izzo and O'Brien

Moo!

Joke I saw on the Internet, expanded for full names:

"That Pats DB who went to Rutgers got an INT."

"Duron Harmon, Devin McCourty, or Logan Ryan?"

"Yes."

Couple of cool stats:

(1) With Houston's loss, for all of Super Bowl history and thus for the 51st straight year, the team with the Super Bowl stadium will have failed to make it to the Super Bowl.

(2) The New England Patriots have now reached a 6th consecutive conference championship, breaking the tie with the Oakland Raiders, who had also reached 5 consecutive conference championships (1973-1978 seasons), to set the untied NFL record.

Logan Ryan says Bill Belichick told Patriots players that their performance tonight wasn't good enough to beat the Steelers or the Chiefs.

and he is right. All phases of the game need to improve

Yeah, BB pretty much said all this in his post game presser. Even if NE had blownout Houston BB would've said they needed to improve to play (insert any team name in here to include any HS) It's what he does.
Go Pats

let's be honest here.... Any team here would have taken full advantage of the Patriots miscue's last night... Fortunately the Texans couldn't really do anything on offense. Fix those mistakes and the Pats will be fine

Pats D delivered again. Lewis is fantastic. Osweiler sucks and Texans receivers dropped the few good passes he threw.

What we saw here was 2 teams having a great defensive battle.

Oh, and 1 team with an offense.....

Oh my God! You beat a terrible team! Stop crowing about a victory that should have been way more decisive! You're 4 time Champs. Fucking act like it!

Sonny is excluded because he did act with class.
