I'd forgotten that about Wilfork. That was the game he went out for the year, and it was really the last time he played at a high level. Of course he'd come back and play well after that, but he never got back to the same level he once was.Yes, that shot of Talib was the first thing that popped into my head. I looked up the highlights from that game, too.
GameDay: Patriots vs. Falcons highlights
Gronk was out for that game as well. Kenbrell Thompkins had some big plays. Vince Wilfork went down early in that game. Defense had to deal with Tony Gonzalez at TE, too. Really, there are so many changes in personnel from that game on both sides. But, for what it's worth, I checked the box score too; Atlanta's offense managed to put up some big numbers in that game. Surprisingly ended up ranking 20th in pts & 14th in yards that year (and 27th in pts in yrds on D in 2013 too).

Here's a video of the game highlights:
Wow, take out one big play at the end, we really took out Julio in this one.
I do recall this game...........Blount had a long TD. Brady's main receivers were Kenbrell Thompkins and Aaron Dobson. Oh, and Matthew Mulligan caught a TD as the red zone threat.
Talib played one of his best games that night.
I remember this game very well. It was Breaking Bad's series finale and it was excellent.
It was in 2013, so it's been a while. Two things I remember from that game:
It was Blounts first big game as a Patriot.
Talib won us the game in the end with a big pass breakup in the red zone.
Obviously these teams are way different now, but it was a game I thought was worth bringing back up.
