All the stuff people said about the Pats this week? They heard that.
Good. People should say that stuff every week.
That's what I'm starting to think. It shouldn't really require people questioning whether these guys have lost it to have them do good work, but maybe that's the case now.

Did you guys ever think the reason they came out angry and played better had nothing to do with what anyone was saying in the media or by the fans and that they were just mad at themselves for not playing well?

I honestly think it was a case of both.  Probably driven more by internal stuff but I have little doubt that they were peeved at all the media bs of the past week too.  Hell, you knew Belichick was just from his demeanor at that press conference mid-week last week.

I wouldn't go that far. Brady threw what would have been a pick 99 out of 100 times, and there were still way to many futile trips for the red zone.

Waiting for them to string a couple of good games together.

What an absolutely awful performance by the Patriots defense tonight. New England should be counting its blessings.

It irks me that New England kicks so many field goals. They need to be more efficient in the red zone.

Brady has been great the past few weeks.

So for all the naysayers that had the Pats dead in their tracks 6 weeks ago and were saying Brady was finished or had declined as a player, what do you have to say now that they will probably be considered the best team in the NFL with Brady jumping up into MVP consideration

They'll say Peyton's got more passing yards.
And the Pats play in the weak AFC East.  :-\
And they'll ask.... Can the Pats keep it up? Only halfway through the season.

Last I check the NFC South is the weakest of them all...

Their best team is barely .500. Everyone else is waaaay below it.

Super solid win.

Any truth that Jonas Gray has been traded to San Diego, where they have lots of Chargers?  ;D
Yup
