I really like watching this team play and while I find it stressful at times, particularly when the opposing team has the ball on 3rd down, I know that this is a young team that's going to make mistakes. This is just part of the deal when practically half your roster in either their first or second year in the league. Another byproduct of this youth movement that we fans have to be patient with is more penalties at inopportune times. It's just part of the process of growing pains when you are fielding a young team.
What I've really been impressed with the over the last month is the way the team is playing when it comes out of half time. I remember a time when it did not look like any half time adjustments were being made and the team was often flat and sluggish to start the 3rd quarter. This goes all the way back to the 2006 AFCC game against the Colts.
Over the last month it seems that the Pats have taken a giant step forward in this regard and the W's are now starting to pile up. I like the way the team is playing in the second half and I think that the coaching staff deserves a pat on the back for making the necessary adjustments.
