Default Injuries have just caught up to the patriots this year...not an excuse but a fact

Actually for the Patriots to be 7-5 at this point, in my view is an accomplishment.

Every one of those players are trying the best. They are NOT underperforming. They are simply undermanned with quality players.

The losses of Brady, Adalius Thomas, Warren, Lamont Jordan, Maroney, Harrison and lack of a 2nd quality CB are just too much to overcome


Its easy to feel disappointed after last years incredible season...

but its just not their year, but still they are easy to root for.

Yeah, all the turnovers and dropped passes were due to injuries.

Lets just face facts..the Steelers are a much better team. They have a much better defense and have played a much tougher schedule and are simply better this year, period.

Some of those turnovers and dropped passes may have something to do with the Steelers.


They will be tough to beat

Even with the injuries we're still in this game without the drops and Slater's fumble. Also Light getting toasted for 2 fumbles can't really be pinned on injuries.

how many of the teams with a winning record don't have the QB that started the season for them?

Ben had a pretty good season as a back up, and I think Brady did too..
