As much as I'd want Brady in there - this win was MUCH more satisfying with Cassel - Page 2 - New England Patriots Forums

I'm not sure which victory I enjoyed more, the Chargers game last year after the Spygate nonsense when everybody figured the Pats would be put down or this game when so many figured the team couldn't win (I read somebody had the Jets as 11 point favorites).

Watching Adalius take Favre and his blocker to the ground was a personal high point for me.

No doubt... it's been a while since the Pats "pulled off the upset." Of course, silly Jets fans probably bid up the spread maniacally in their glee. Whoops.

I too would love to see a healthy Tom being in there beating up the Jets. But yeah, the fact that the Jets can't even beat the Pats when their star QB is gone for the season and they have a good one themselves, I can't help but laugh at that.

Definitely a very satisfying win. Last season had a few of them, the Chargers game, the Cowboys game, the Colts game, but I have a feeling every game this season is going to be this satisfying as little-by-little we prove everyone wrong.

That is the satisfying part.

In a nut schell:

Brady, BRADY We don't need no stinking Tom Brady to beat the jests.

Well , well said by all. I only had the pleasure of listening to the game, and even then it was sweet.

And the cherry on top was the Thomas sack, it brought a new level of joy when I saw it. I just imagined what was going through Favre's mind at that point:

"So this is what it's like to be a Jet. To play in another team's stadium located in the armpit of the country. To play the Patriots twice a year...."

It's not so embarrassing when the Jets lose to a Tom Brady QB'd team - and when the Jets are more humiliated I enjoy it more... especially after hearing so many chortling Jets fans over the last week.

Statement game and the Pats rose to the occasion. Not always pretty to watch but one of their best. My confidence just got more validation and Manjokus just got humiliated. Life is good in Patriot Country
