I guess it's silence. I don't hear;

1. Patriots can't win a big game on the road. This was an early season important game. Any win against the Fins in Miami is a big win.

2. The Patriots can't win in the 2nd half.

3. The young DB's can't make plays.

Yes it's early and there are tough games ahead. But it's going to be nice having a respite for 2 weeks from all that crap from Borges, Felger, Curran, the national media, and some posters here at patsfans.

The DBs still need lots of improvement.

Henne is terrible.

You think? Henne was not terrible against the Jets.

Yes they need to improve and will as the season goes along. But, what happen to, they can't make any plays against anyone including Fitzpatrick?

Triumph

Also, BB told Pat Harwin, that nothing spurns player development like winning. The young players see that what they have been taught actually works.

So, this huge win was a step in the right direction for the team.

Good win, but it hardly means those things you mention weren't/aren't issues.

This is the winner from last nights Gameday thread. With NO score yet at all in the game and still the first quarter, check this out:

Well this games over... The Phins are gonna trash the pats

With all the cr@p the Pat's get thrown at them by the media, the haters and ESPN, it really makes you despise the hometown quitters even that much more.

The sad part is, there's probably far too many Patriots "fans" who are actually upset that the Pat's won last night since they can't spin their "I told you so" agendas for the next 2 weeks.

It has a strange allure. It has a strange... allure.

Well in all honesty, yesterday was the first game the recent memory where we kicked butt on road against a better team / hostile crowd.

Hope Kontra's reverse hex will work magic for many more seasons to come including this one

It's the wisdom of "You are what you are."

The NFL is such a "what have you done this week" league. Perceptions shift so quickly and that's part of the fun. Skim the local and national media and suddenly the Pats are greater than they've been since .. .week 1. (NFL.com's headline: "The new no-name defense.")

That's why I find it annoying when some in here act superior toward folks who get excited after a win or down after a loss (and sometimes a win!). That's part of being an NFL fan -- the rollercoaster.

I remain psyched about this young team. Hard to believe the Pats have a better record than the Colts and the same as the Steelers with such a horrid draft record.

So true. Who knows what will happen for the rest of the season. Hopefully the team will build off this win in a big way, but we don't know yet. For now, it's nice to bask in the glory of a real butt kickin' (handed out by our team) on national TV! Part of the victory for the players, I'm sure was shutting up (for 2 weeks at least) all the naysayers. Go Pats!!!
