What surprised you most about the Pats this week? - New England Patriots Forums

I gotta go with the play of Mike Wright. I never knew Wright had so much explosion off the line of scrimmage. It will be interesting to see if he can keep up this level of play or if fatigue will be a factor as we get closer to the midpoint of the season.

What's your biggest surprise this week?

Darius Butler. The rookie did good this week...

Sammy Morris showed he's back - and I just loved that.

The Patriots can rush the passer.

Brady looks infinitely better and it came against Baltimore. While not the dominating defense they were last year, it may be the best one we've faced this year. I didn't expect him to look this good for at least another few weeks but he was on just about every throw.

I'm surprised that we didn't put the Ravens away. Looked like we were dominating then Brady fumbles and gives up a TD to bring them back in the game. I didn't think the game should be close, but the Ravens scratched their way back into it.

As for player surprise: Mike Wright for sure. Wow!

That too! He looked awfully strong today.

The composure of the young guys. They didn't get involved in the jawing, draw any stupid penalties, or fall apart when they gave up a play or two.

Darius Butler's coverage and ball-hawking skills. Mike Wright's bull rushes a close second. Sammy Morris morphing into a Kevin Faulk-like role is also noteworthy and a good use of his skills.
