Ok, it is only the first half of the first game of the season. But a few thoughts:
I gotta say I do like we are seeing out of the defense. Flores is definitely more aggressive than Patricia. I always felt that Patricia was too conservative for his own good. Patricia would have played Watson solely as contain an keep him in the pocket. Flores is doing that and pressuring him too.
I said before the game that Dorsett could be Gaffney 2.0 as a WR who came in his first year without the benefit of an off season and preseason and was unimpressive and popped in his second year. Dorsett could end up being far better than Gaffney. Seems to get the system now. I always thought he was misused in Indy.
Patterson can definitely be effective as a gadget player. Horrible route runner, but get him the ball and he can do dynamic things. Why didn't the Vikes or the Raiders do that?
Because he kept that drive alive twice and THEN scored a TD. Do you not watch the games or do you just watch them with zero understanding of what you're seeing?
IMO he's the best announcer I can remember and it's not even close. Sometimes he gets a little excited, but his insight is and ability to explain it is second to none
This first half has been pretty consistent with what I expected for this season. Compared to week 1 of last season, the pats are slightly worse on offense (but more than good enough) and significantly better on defense. As always, the wildcard will be injuries

So far I'm not seeing anything special from NE besides better communication & execution tbh. We're winning 1 on 1's up front in both trenches. Almost 0 blitzing on D, again we're taking advantage of a weak OL.
Houston's secondary looks like ours last year. Lots of after the fact yapping bc guys are confused & missing simple hand offs.
New England is just more prepared & Houston isn't even close to being ready for prime time.
Fitzpatrick safely in the Good part of the Ryan Fitzpatrick Cycle. Don't worry, he'll start sucking as soon as Jameis Winston comes back and they name Fitzpatrick the starter.
