The official Patriots vs Dolphins game thread

[Uncle Rico]

I saw Sparano telling him to take the night off, they were doubling him all night and letting the other receivers go for 500 yards.

Good point. No way Brady throws for 500 yards without Miami having to double 85 and leave other receivers to run free.

A division win in Miami (where weird things have been known to happen). Take it, get the interior OL settled, get ready for the Chargers.

Lots of yards allowed - but it didn't feel like in other years - I think a few of those defenders are gonna be keepers.

Here's Jaws cursing tonight.

I heard that too. Not that I care, it's just kinda funny.

Yeah that was Brees, not Henne

What part of "league wide" did you not understand?

Good grief, you're in solid contention for the most annoying poster on the this board.

Albert Haynesworth.

I was very VERY impressed with him today.

Re: Albert Haynesworth.

As was I. Looks to look forward to from the fat man.

The 4th quarter was almost all garbage time. And the refs put the flags away for holding. Pats got tackled a few times and they just ignored it.

Overall, you have to be pleased with the W. Plenty to work on and plenty of confidence for the rooks.

Re: Albert Haynesworth.

I was satisfied, but it's not like he was out there being Godzilla and throwing lineman into Henne or anything

All I'm saying is its easier to swallow with Henne lighting you up as opposed to Brees. I understand it has been a league wide issue, and its a valid point.

 

[VJCPatriot]

Dowling and Solder had very good games. the Pats young talent is looking good. Also Gronkowski and Hernandez looked unstoppable. Fish had no answer all day for the tight end attack. Welker's 99 yard TD! Wow, thats just icing on the cake! Brady 500+ yards, #5 all time. Awesome first game win!

Edit I meant easier to swallow with Brees as opposes to Henne

I have been a Henne critic, but it certainly is possible that he has defied expectations and actually turned into a decent quarterback.

 

[Betterthanmost]

I wonder if he will get a fine for the punch, palm to the head of the guy who was trying to twist his knee at the goal line play. Did anybody see that? I am glad the crew kept quiet on it. Could have hurt us big time.
