A 55 burger on a Steelers D...almost 200 yards rushing... 630 yards of offense

[sb1]

The historical beatdown that we just witnessed...against an organization that I absolutely loathe from top to bottom... I'd say that was very, very close to being just as enjoyable as a Red Sox World Series championship.


That was just delicious.

What a way to end a Sunday/start a Monday (game ran past midnight here)!

Sweet way to head into the bye week too! a whole week off to enjoy dropping 50 on the Steelers

We have a competent O that scored the leagues most points 1 game, and if the D gets healthy, they could be top 5.

And enjoy I certainly will.

Trash talking Steeler fan can "spygate" THIS.


Weekends like this are about as good as it gets for any sports fan. We are lucky....

I never could have predicted that, can he at least save some for the playoffs?

I fixed it for you.

I fixed it for you.

Thanks, could this actually be one of the best pats teams if they stay healthy? The offense has all the weapons, and the D has playmakers.

I know its too early to tell, but this team has to feel good. Just keep improving.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer bunch of guys, amirite?

 

[YearbookCurfew]

Great to see Brady back to his usual championship self.

I would have loved for the Pats to have scored 55 on the Giants or Ravens.

It was very SATISFYING

No! He is going to build on this!!! Lots more to come, trust me!

Can someone remind me again how a 50-point game became a "50 burger"?

 

[Patriot_in_NY]

WOW, hanging a 50-burger on the Squeelers. Those are unheard of. Against the Bills, yes..... Pittsburgh..... No.

I'm in heaven.

@Dejan_Kovacevic: Your Pittsburgh Steelers have played for 81 years. This was the worst statistical defensive performance in all of those 81 years.

I'm sorry to be a buzzkill but we beat the 2013 Steelers. They're last in their division and especially bad this year vs the pass. They'll likely have a top 10 draft pick in the spring. Maybe top 5. This year the Steelers suck...badly.

While it's great to go into the bye with a solid win (lightyears better than if we had lost). It's not like we beat the Steel Curtain era Steelers or even the Steelers of a few years ago.

Somehow I don't believe this part.

I know I'm not supposed to talk 2007, but I think that this team, with the way the D was playing and in many ways still is despite the injuries, that this team would probably be undeafeated to this point in the season. Look what they've accomplished in spite of everything? They're 7-2.

Let me put it this way. If some phantom person came up to you at the end of last season and said to you:

- You're going to lose the best all-around TE in football for all of training camp and much of the first half of the regular season . . . (Gronk)

- You're going to lose perhaps the most versatile weapon in the league due to a murder charge and multiple gun-related charges in what is being exposed as a history of violent behavior . . . (AHern)

- The best slot receiver in the league and the best at moving the chains on third down (perhaps the best at that we've ever seen in the league) is going to leave in FA . . . (Welker)

- An unsung hero who was two missteps from not even being in the NFL would be so undervalued by the Patriots as to sign a contract for peanuts with SD would leave . . . (Woodhead)

Then, if that wasn't enough . . .

- Your QB will struggle while trying to run the offense while having to teach a trio of young receivers, a slot guy he's never played with and who probably won't play a full season, no TE's, and a weird RB carousel

- You'd suffer season-ending injuries to some of the best players at their respective positions in all the league . . . (Wilfork, Mayo, Vollmer)

- Your best performer of the season on defense would be lost to what appears to be a nagging hip injury . . . (Talib)

- And then one of your better D-Linemen would be lost for the season . . . (Kelly)

. . . your team would have a winning record halfway through the season and still be in the hunt for the top seed in the conference . . . would you have believed this person?

This team is 7-2 and just a few plays from being 9-0. There are guys playing out of their minds right now and I hope that can last. Guys will get healthier (don't tell me it can get worse). Young guys will get valuable playing time, which will translate to experience come playoff time. The future looks bright.
