Default What would qualify the Colt game as a success?

Let's not beat around the bush, would the Colt game qualify as a success as long as we win and there are no injuries? Even if the defense surrenders 35 points in a 38-35 win? Or do we need to win by 20?

There is little to be gained in a game against a winless team this late in the year.

Therefore, what needs to happen in order for this game to qualify as a success in your opinion?

For me, as long as we win by double digits I'll be satisfied.

A win with zero injuries and some flashes from guys like Vareen, Price, and Sterling Moore

I will call it a successful win if the Pats D can hold the inept Colts offense to less than their game averages which is >250 yards and >12.5 pts.

Oh and of course no more injuries.

One and two equal success. Three is a luxury. I'd love to see Brady break Marino's 5084 and Welker break Rice's 1848. Brady needs 292/game and Welker 142/game. While nice if they are sitting on the bench in the third quarter because the defense scored a few TDs and Brady only has 186 and Welker 42 but they're not taking contact, I'll take that.

There's only two conclusions for Patriots fans on rookies. They are either a bust or being fitted for their bust in Canton.

The Colts offense is horrible and they're fielding one of the worst QB's in the league. This game needs to be a complete demolition with no injuries to be considered a success.

I'd love fornthem both to reach those milestones too! But we all know adding another ring to TFB's hand would be soooo soooo much sweeter.
