[QUOTE="yukon cornelius, post: 5096075, member: 29890"]if you've watched this team, you know how it works......the defense especially is a work in progress; every year is a new year - come december this staff will have mounds of tape on everyone else, and will have a good long look at our guys, and things will come together......
So, what you are saying is that we may be continue to need 30 points a game to win until the defense gels in the last quarter of the season?
I'm not criticizing. In that scenario, we are in the playoffs with a great offense, and a top 10 defense for the playoffs.
Outcoached? BOBs calls might have cost this underperforming team another win.
All the bums blow it on the challenges.
And not going for it on that 4th down. I was happy Pats fgot the stop, D when they neede it, but I don't think they would have done it again.
The variable to me was Deshaun's passing. That had not been seen before. He hit some tight windows, in close coverage. Kid was really terrific. Escaped pressure, stayed cool. He is going to be a problem. Until he gets injured, like for example, Cam Newton now. Happens to them all.
I suspect Wilson is hurting.
This was a painful loss for Patriots West. You know they wanted this one, badly. They will remember it, as will our guys. Winning when everything is not perfect is a big deal. Kids onthe team have already been through a lot of crap, on the Patriots scale of things.
Wasn't long ago, before edelman's heartbreaking injury, most folks believed they were pretty much unbeatable. None of that nonsense now, everyone knows it, and everyone knows to hang in there. BB won't have to tell them, they already know. Good stuff.

Let's add, with an o-line that's down some talent and has not rapidly clicked into place. No, there's no excuse - TFB only SEEMS immortal. It's probably important to keep him upright and alive.We need to go up against a team that doesn't have three no doubt elite guys in their front 7.
People can't give the other teams credit. Houston has great players on defense
I think KC and the Texans are playoff caliber teams but these games will mean nothing if they meet again in January.
The KC game will certainly mean something if its the difference between playing at Arrowhead or Gillette.
The chiefs are 2 games up on us
I don't care where it is. I am sure our guys want some payback against them. They also don't have eric berry

It's awful still. If brady was still in his early 30s then it wouldn't be a problem. He's the franchise. We can't let him get hit like that game in and game out
Texans outplayed pats all game..reminds me of last years super bowl.....Texans got gassed and O’Brien made a horrible decision not to go for it on 4th and 1.....but we will take the W....but Bill and his coaches and the entire team looked like crap for much of the game.....Luckily TFB was able to lead another great comeback and Texans D was pretty fried!!!
Yes. Just so awful that 3 ELITE ALL-PRO players were able to sack Brady.. SMH. Clearly you understand very little about the game.
