Hopefully this continues for 2 more games -- just unbelievable performance.
Vereen was making those kinds of catches in training camp, and I assume in regular season practices too. The coaches just decided that Woodhead was a better option for most of the season, and he can't do that kind of stuff, unfortunately.

I think the knock on Vereen was his blitz pickup. He made a few nice plays in that department - one the announcers even mentioned. Perhaps the light bulb just lit.

Vereen, Ridley, and Woodhead would all be #1 backs if they played elsewhere.

I've really been hoping he'd brake out at some time this season. When I first started to look into what his potential was I was really excited about what he would be able to do catching the ball. Maybe after this game Brady will start looking at him more as a target.

And speaking of the open field, Connor Barwin is still trying to figure out where Vereen went.

The Patriots have been overachievers the past two years. It doesn't have the talent to compensate for injuries, and it wins so much because it puts in 99% effort in the regular season and plays with terrific schemes to mask its deficiencies.

But in the playoffs a good team at 99% will not beat emotional, talented teams that play at 100%. It's what happened against the Giants in 2011 and the Ravens in 2012.

Ridley squirts forward, with great speed and power.

He's the Giant Speed Squid of Doom!!!
