Cannon preformed very well.. I think there was only one time that Thomas beat him to put pressure on Brady. The other time, Thomas was coming from the same side as Pace.
Edelman played a helluva game until the blow to the head. And, contrary to Collinsworth, the defender cannot lead with the crown of his helmet, which is exactly what happened.
Contrary to Mike Carrey's call, that was not an illegal chop block. Thomas was no longer engaged with Hoomanawanui when Ridley went at him.
Ridley and Vereen ran the ball very well.. Donald Thomas is much better at LG than at RG.
Would have liked to have seen more of Woodhead later in the game once Edelman was out. Even if it was just as a WR..
The defense really put on a show today. 4 more forced fumbles (though NFL.com only lists 3, not giving one for Vince throwing Moore into Sanchez) and another interception. And 2 of the fumbles run back for TDs.
The kick by Gostkowski that was "missed" sure looked like it went over the top of the post just like Tucker's did for Baltimore back in week 3...
The "pushoff" call on Hernandez was LAME. I've watched Andre Johnson, Calvin Johnson and numerous others do more than that and not get called. I think the refs forgot that they aren't supposed to feel pity for one team or the other.
Over-all a great day. Only concern is Edelman's concussion. Hopefully, with 10 days, he'll be back. Need to get him in touch with that Dentist that creates those special mouth guards that help prevent concussions.
Wish the Pats would give Mallett something more to do than hand-offs. This is the sort of game that it should be done.
