Nice to see at least one player on defense back on the field from an injury.

The 6-foot-2, 244-pound Fletcher was in the starting lineup between Jerod Mayo and Rob Ninkovich in the base 4-3 defense. With the Patriots running plenty of base D, Fletcher had a large role in the game-plan as the middle linebacker. He was also on the "Big 4" special teams units -- kickoff return, kickoff coverage, punt return, punt coverage -- making a tackle on the game's first play.​

Poor Gary Guyton...

Per Reiss in his blog

5. Linebacker Gary Guyton dressed for Sunday’s game, but did not play. His playing time has been down this year, and his role was most affected by the return of linebacker Dane Fletcher from injury.
