Default On the plus side, how about Kevin Faulk?

after not being on the field in over a year, he looks like he hasnt missed any time...I was surprised that he seemed to be the main back over BJGE this week. he ran the ball well, and made some nice catches in the passing game

he really was the only player(besides andre carter) that looked like they came ready to play this week

Faulk looked ok but I could have done without losing a game because of the Faulk Reunion Tour.

He looked okay. Nothing special. Nice to see him get some snaps, but not at the expense of Ridley who didn't get one carry today.

Would have preferred more Green-Ellis and Ridley. Faulk did look OK, which was pleasing to see.

BJGE looks like he might be hurting and hence why less snaps and not too many yards per carry when he did get them

I wouldve liked to see more Steven Ridley however...we never really got our running game going today which in turn hurt our passing offense

I actually think faulk kinda held us back. Ridley could have done more with the opportunities faulk had

Faulk is on the team because he's belichick's binky. he's 35 and should have gracioiusly retired instead of taking snaps away from ridley, green ellis and woodhead. im not happy with him being on the team because the patriots made room for him by cutting bodden, who wouldn't have made a huge difference today, but we are already thin at DB. since the beginning of the year, we've cut bodden, meriweather, sanders (bonehead move) and page.

Was kind of meh on it actually. He looked good but personally I'd rather have the combo of BJGE, Ridley and Woodhead. Way more unpredictable.

Looks like the injury and age caught up to his legs. Still looks like one hell of a blocker.

Brady and Faulk's 40 times might be too close for comfort at this stage in his career.

Wasn't all that impressed aside from the blocking. Don't see what he did on the runs that Ridley/Woodhead couldn't have done or done better.
