21 pts in the 4th quarter?  somebody eased up a bit, huh?

Yeah.

About the only upside to this is that it will give BB a bunch of material to harangue his troops in preparation for the game against Washington, which should be a blow out.

Of the remaining games, the ones against Denver and Miami will be interesting.

One thing I totally missed in prior weeks is that Julian Edelmen got on the field as a DB sooner than Mathew Slater, despite the fact that Slater played safety in college.  I wonder why the team would risk injury to it's #4 WR, punt returner, and #4 QB (I assume. Not that you ever need #4 QBs, except maybe in Wildcat), when they could have put a college DB out there.

Not pretty at all.  But if I'm not mistaken there were 3 dropped TD passes on 3 different drives -- 2 resulted in FGs and the 3rd resulted in an interception.   15 points off the table.  Despite how poorly the D played, this one shouldn't have been close.

The team that just barely gets by against bad teams in the 4th quarter in kind of dramatic fashion isn't the Broncos. It's the Pats. Tebow has nobody to throw to. Brady does.  Tebow isn't a great NFL QB.  Brady is. 

Something will have to give this Sunday. One team's luck isn't holding out any longer.

My sorry sorry prediction....the Pats lose in a stunner. It makes no sense. That's probably why it will happen

Well seeing as how they almost let the Colts win and almost let the Redskins tie up, I guess they are due for a blowout

That flag against Fletcher for hitting Brady when he tried to slide was bs. He did it perfect. The protection for QBs in this league borders on absurd

Even Brady said it was clean

If Brady were Brady that would have been a 52-27 win because we lost a lot of points on bad passes.

Our defense sucks and it will do us in January regardless of a 12 or 13 win season we manage to put up.

Either that or Belichick might be biding his time waiting for his frontline defenders like Patrick Chung to get healthy.

Devin McCourty is clearly playing hurt.

I know there will lots of hype of the Patriots going into Denver to take on Tebowmania. I can't believe that Denver wins games the way they do....... Even if we have a three TD lead late in the 4th qtr, I feel compelled to watch to see what miracle Denver will pull out of their hat.
The beatings will continue until morale improves

OK, come back with some points here.  I can't handle the Tebow magic getting momentum.

Brady's got them heading towards the dagger right here.
