Took over for Shannon Sharpe, I believe.

Matt Asiata 10 rushes 27 yards, seemed like more than that...

Cassell 3 for 16....

Run D doing ok...

Please get a TD pats to open the 3rd quarter. Wouldn't mind another Brady TD pass to Dobson or gronk

For some reason I'm expecting a lot of Vereen second half.

In fairness, that first vikings drive was tough to watch

Wow! New Orleans look like they may be heading to 0-2. I thought they were overrated this year and that I thought that the Falcons would be the surprise winners of the NFC South, but I didn't think they would look this bad vs. the Browns.

I'm quite shocked, since I had them pegged as the best team in the NFC aside form the Hawks.

Any idea why they've been under-performing thus far? I haven't followed their games this season.

I think turner went away from asiata other than the first and last drive. You can thank him for that.

its 16-10. Still winnable. Its the browns after all. But no one will call out brees but when brady has a bad Q its his eroding skills.

Oh, I thought it was 16-0. I that's what happens when you are only half watching the halftime broadcast.

What the **** is wrong with Bart Scott's head?

There were some panicky posts, but there were also some valid points made. Deonte Skinner being one injury from starting--and predictably sucking and being abused repeatedly for a TD drive--is still a personnel management problem. Chandler Jones coming out as a 3-4 DE to start the game is still puzzling at best. But the issues have been largely corrected as the game has gone on.

Where's Gronk??

English Patriot said:

Exactly why i said we have to let Jones do for us what Houston allow Watt to do. Forget scheming just let the guy go after the QB and see what happens. Whenever i watch Houston it seems like 10 of the D have their playbook and then Watt has his own.

I doubt that. For the patriots, I double doubt that.

How do you feel now?

Seems to me like BB drove some points home very loudly in team meetings this week. They are playing good tonight.

Who would have thought the edge rushing Chandler Jones plays well on the edge!

@MikeReiss: Just six snaps for WR Danny Amendola in the first half, which reflects how Patriots using more 2-TE and heavy packages than 3-WR groupings.

Then that will be to ours and Jones' detriment because he has off the scale athleticism like his brothers.

Did the Browns miss a PAT? They had 10 points before the pick six, weird that they're at 16 now.

Yes.

Most of the early griping was justified.
