Newhouse was below average. On one of the running plays, he was supposed to have backside contain, yet it was his man that knifed right by him to make the stop at the O-line. On another play, he failed to pick up the twist and his man had a free shot on Brady..

I don't know what deal is with Cannon or Mason. Both have had major issues this season with the bullrush. One of the sacks was specifically because Cannon was walked back into the pocket and tossed aside.. The last time I remember that happening was when he was a rookie having recovered from Cancer..

One thing I noticed about Brady is that he seemed to be waiting a lot for the plays to develop. They moved the ball best when they were going with the quick hits..
 
Fauria on 5th Qtr is painful
 
Will be interesting to see if they make any moves tomorrow? Sign Watson? Koo?
 
In honor of the GDT, shouldn't this be called the "Tom Brady is done" memorial post-game thread?
 
Feeling bad because I was in Washington yesterday, but I hadn't known about the game when I planned the trip and I needed to get home. Congratulations to all of the Pats fans who made it into a semi-home game.

I had to listen to the person watching with me mention that Brady is losing it and seeing ghosts when he had 200 yards passing in the first half.
 
If they don't activate Watson, he get's released.
Reiss raised the possibility that could be the case. But they ran better with FB or 2 TEs and there are no backups there.

Serious question : Do you prefer Burton & Shades-on-Sunday-mornings Zolak ? Seems to me, Fauria isn’t the worst one...
 
Instant thoughts.

They won this game 33-7 playing a C+/B- game. They could have won this 50-0 if they did just a few things better. I still am mad about that non-call on the TD. Was an OBVIOUS and BLATANT hold to open up that hole.

Dorsett is the only injury they had today. I doubt he'll be ready for thrusday with a hammy. Hopefully it is minor and he can be back after the Giants. They can't afford to lose him for too long.

The OL had maybe their best and worst halves of the year IMO. I'm not happy overall with the play but I think it will be worked out. Hopefully when Wynn comes back it will really start to look good. Karras particularly was worrying. There is no option really to upgrade him. He had his worst game today and just needs to play better.

White with a heavy workload today. Hopefully Burkhead is back for Thursday. I don't want to see them have to look him a lot back to back games with such a short break.

Kicker issues still... But not really much worse than Gost had been this year. I'm not sold on this guy being the answer for the rest of the year. I hope they aren't afraid to try someone else. They probably will see how he does against the Giants, but he needs to be better than he was today. 1 missed XP and 1 almost missed XP that had to clang in.

Edelman with a nice 100 yard game. Really gutting it out there. Hopefully after Thursday the rest will do him some good.

Defense again was absolutely fantastic. Gilmore was maybe their worst CB today. Not to say he played badly. That is just how good the other guys played.
Almost missed PAT=made PAT

For takes on quarterback play, I usually look to middle-aged men with what looks to be an anime avatar. They give such a great analysis. @QuantumMechanic what do you think?

I think that Bolden is the back-up FB currently. Don't think you are going to find another one.
