Wow.. What a can of whoop-***** the Pats opened after the 1st quarter.

Great job with the running game. Ridley is looking to be a steal from the 3rd round.

WB Sterling Moore. Great to have you out there. Great instincts.. Good tackling.

Antuan Molden went from goat to Hero with his game ending interception.

Arrington got robbed. McCourty didn't hit a "defenseless" receiver. He didn't lead with any part of the helmet and hit the guy in the upper chest/shoulder area, not the head. That penalty should not nullify interceptions. The penalty should have been tacked on from the spot of the foul at worst.

I wish we didn't have to wait for an update on McCourty.

Ihedigbo didn't go down.

McCourty is fine. or didn't you see him run to the sidelines under his own power? It was a stinger.. nothing more..

Winning is always great, but I hope the slow starts do not continue. Can't bank on double digit comebacks against actual good teams. Defense has got to make stops in the red zone like earlier in the season and do a better job keeping these games close.

That said, the adjustments and ability to finish are once again encouraging.

How did the injuries look, didn't catch what happened to Mccourty?

Props to Ghost making the 47 yarder, that was a key one and could have hurt at that point had he not made it and Buffalo got the ball in good field position. Big kick.

Hernandez back to speed, is that 3rd option after Gronk/Welker we've been waiting on. This offense will be so hard to stop.

Only playcalling issue was the inability to score from 1st and goal on the 1. Only 1 rush, that was frustrating.

Jets suck

I did see him get off the field under his own power. I guess I'm just worrying.

Was that the explanation? I was at a Bears bar with the only sound Bears sound and nobody could figure out what the BS penalty was for. Egregious.

I hate what the Pats usually try to do in short yardage situations. Actually I hate what most teams try to do in 3rd and 1 situations.

He intercepted the ball before the hit so I couldn't figure out why the interception was nullified.
