Brandon King causes game-turning fumble

Just thought I'd mention this because no one else seems to have said a word about it yet.

This kid has been another great UDFA find.

I saw him on one of those patriots.com kid show vids my son and daughter watch the other day. I honestly thought it was a prank at first. Couldn't believe he is an NFL player. He doesn't look like a college kid - - he looks like a high school kid!

Totally Challenge: Brandon King

(Tell me, doesn't he look YOUNGER than some of the kids asking him questions?)

Good on Brandon - - he's doing very well.

King has been a great find as a gunner. In the category of unsung heroes though, I tip my hat to Tavon Wilson, taken out of mothballs with a handful of defensive snaps on the season and thrust into the fray for 50-something nearly flawless defensive snaps and a couple of big time hits.

Good point.

The real story of this game was how roster players #40-47 won this game for the franchise last night (along with a beaten up but tough as nail Brady).

Holy crap! he played 3-technique DT at Auburn?????????????????

I've heard it all now.

Check out BB's presser last night - - at approx. the 3:55 mark:

Speaking of fumbles, how funny would it have been had McKelvin not recovered that last fumble? That'd be two MNF games fumbled away at Gillette.

I was actually starting to feel horrible for him.

For as much as he is labeled a massive bust he has stuck around for four seasons. He was a huge reach and has really not done anything to justify such a high pick but he has proven himself a solid contributor on ST. We've had a lot worse second round picks in hindsight. At least we've gotten something out of the kid. Had a nice night too during his defensive snaps.
