Easily one of the top 3 players of the game tonight.
Not only a spectacular (and clutch) TD grab, but injected life into the KR role for the Patriots and made the equally clutch diving snag of the onside kick late in the game.
Although YPC tonight was good, YPC ISN'T the end-all. The reason to run it more than just 27% of the time is to better set up the pass. This is what happened, in particular against Buffalo last game where the YPC was lousy, but McDaniels used it consistently as body blows that set up the head shots.
???You mean all those high arcing lobs out of bounds?

Gronk missed 2 catchable passes. Edelman also missed two.
Amendola TD reception and the Vereen 1st TD reception........
You get some and you lose some.
Brady was very good tonight. He would have been Buffalo-good with a more balanced attack where he could have sold play action as a threat..
In the meantime 41-19 TOP inbalances hurt the team more with a D missing IT'S QB.
Gameplanning was a rout in favor of Rex Ryan over Bill Belichick tonight. Thank goodness the Patriots have enough of a talent surplus to overcome that.
Deep secondary, shallow LB depth?
You are certainly entitled to you own analysis. Brady seems to think that Vereen made a great catch, and implied that he might have thrown it a bit better.The Vereen TD pass was on the money. Go back and watch it again. Watch what Vereen does. That's where the issue was.
It is good to have at least one LB available in case of injury. If we played Skinner, no one but special teamers would have been available. If Skinner was to be used in the base, then I think that Fleming would have been activated as a backup LB.I don't think the depth dictated the game plan. When Mayo got hurt, we plugged Skinner in there last week the rest of the game.
