Michael Irvin and Deion Sanders on the browner helmet to helmet call - "Worst call of the season"

Who needs edge rushers with Hightower and Collins blitzing the A gap? And please BB, re-sign Ayers, Casillas and Branch. All three had excellent games. So much depth.

And credit to San Diego. I thought their defense in the second half was terrific and whilst it was a shame Ingram had to step up in this game, it was really nice to see him finally live up to the promise he showed in college. Such an exciting player when he's on.

SD 4-13 on 3rd down. 216 net yards. Nice #'s

In the past I've said something similar about Welker, and I believe it is true of both of them. But Minitron is here now, and Welker isn't. Anyhow:

If every player on the Patriots had Edelman's heart and determination, not only would this team go 19–0, they'd make the 59–0 Titans game look like a nailbiter.

Keenan Allen had 2 catches for 3 yards. He was really lost on Revis Island

I did swear at TFB during the game, please forgive me.

He swore to. I'm calling the Globe on both of you.

I did swear at TFB during the game, please forgive me.

Me, too. Frustrating performance, but he did enough to get the job done, though it wasn't pretty.

Great, gritty team win. The Defense stepped up Big Time. We have to be the team that can win the ugly ones and we did just that. JE has the offensive play of the game. That really sealed the win for us!

On defense Jamie Collins really shined and they were scared to throw at Revis. Game ball to the team defense!

You lost.

Your TRULY lost.

They have to win the ugly games too. It's not going to be pretty all the time.

Think of how good the defense would be if that bust Collins wasn't playing!

Welcome back, Siliga.

Chandler, Hightower, and Siliga all back for next week?

 

[DefenseRules]

I hope that it's cold as s..t next weekend. I want Miami to freeze their butts off.

 

[ashley]

Really looking forward to Chandler Jones coming back and getting Hightower back as well. Imagine how good this defense can be when those two come back!!!

I missed it all. Those posters have completely ruined the game threads for me, so I don't even bother anymore.

Cut them some slack. We are, after all, on to Miami

That's a quality W for Patriots, and a big-time effort by the defense.

 

[DefenseRules]

The penalty on Browner still mystifies me. Unbelievable. I'm watching that hit again. Honestly I don't know how that is a penalty.

OTOH, 1-4 in the red zone and 2 bad turnovers isn't quite so good. Need to tighten things up for the playoffs.

 

[Todd Bradley]

Gutsy, gutsy win.

O wasn't clicking, a few costly mental mistake, but the D was HUGE and won the game.

Six more wins.
