If Cassel had thrown three picks and just been completely awful I would feel better about this loss. MY concern is that Cassel played say an average/ below average game but they just got throttled in every other phase of the game. It is concerning when you consider Miami's reputation.
Call it a let down and every team is in entitled to one every now and then, especially when they had won 21 in a row. It is way too early to overreact the Pats lost many games like this in years past even in years with Brady when they won titles or made playoff runs. I am not pushing the panic button yet.
If they had lost say 19-17 I would not be pushing it at all. I know they are going to lose some games this year. I guess I am only concerned because as a team they laid down like dogs to a lousy team.
