2. I did not like the dropped Jones interception. Teams must create, and convert turnovers to win. He needs to hang on to that ball; you don't know how many chances you'll get in any game.
3. A few avoidable penalties.
4. Gronk gets Thursday OFF. No fooling around. See if he's okay in two weeks.
And, the things I liked:
1. Defense getting pressure. Active LB's. Improved communication and help out there.
2. A tangible, real commitment to the running game. Finally. It's about time. I'm sick and tired of teams doubling up on us in TOP.
Lastly, it's been a long, long time...but the Greatest Patriots Team Of All Time did lose in an ugly affair at Detroit, way back in '76. We got things straightened out and were the best team when it mattered.
