After the past four games going exactly this way, anyone else beginning to sense a pattern?
The universal gameplan for the Pats is show them something they've never seen before and adjust to them. I thought that was the premise of the differ strategy early on, but now having seen a month's worth of games going exactly the same, I think the Patriots have a revised strategy.
I think they're showing nothing early and adjusting on the fly...it's very interesting and a unique departure from the need to get a lead early the past few seasons have been.
