Yes everyone here loves Tom "The GOAT" Brady and co...

Of course the defense must continue to improve!

HOWEVER if the Patriots are to be special this year, THE CAT MUST RUN!!!








 
 
He our best running back. Even BB has said he is the toughest one to bring down. White is our best receiving back. Burkhead seems to do both well and Gilly is a good reliever. This committee will help keep our guys fresh later in the season.
 
Thrilled to see him rounding back into form. I just hope we keep our approach similar to this past week. It was quite something watching how they'd utilize all of Lewis, Gillislee and Burkhead in the running game (even White had a few successful carries). Very effective, they were all fresh and well rested not having to shoulder a major burden.

Hopefully they keep Lewis's carry total in the ball park of today's game. 10-12 carries on most days. Keep him healthy for when the games really count.
 
It seems like only a few weeks ago, people wanted to trade him for help on the defense.

Oh wait, it was only a few weeks ago.

The NFL season is so short, and so much changes so quickly. Lewis looked like a different player at the start of the season, but he's really coming on now. I'm glad we kept him.
 
Guy really scratches and claws out there with the ball in his hands. I'll tell ya what man, you give this guy some room to operate and he'll turn dust into catnip. Cats love catnip, man.

 
Dion Lewis Snap% and Touches Total By Week
1- 7.0% & 2 2
2- 18.4% & 5
3- 18.4% & 5
4- 20.0% & 5
5- 24.3% & 9
6- 42.6% & 11

Week 7 - season high 14 touches.

Notice a trend?
I will go bananas when he breaks one for 50 yards or more. The Fire Department will have to get me out of a tree.
