Judon leads the Patriots in sacks with 4.5 and QB hits with 8. He’s been the Patriots’ most impactful player on defense…by far.
Houston’s defense plays a softer two-deep safety zone, which should allow the Patriots’ short, quick passing game to operate efficiently
At one point, Jones completed 19 passes in a row. He was in command of the offense and looks like a player with more experience than 4 games.
“I love Tom Brady. I always have,” Fears said. “I am very honored to have been a part of the team with him. I think he’s the greatest, but right now that S.O.B. is the enemy.
Look for NE to take a page out of their “Peyton Manning playbook” and put extra DBs on the field, trying to entice TB to run the ball.

Wilson was intercepted four times in his first 10 attempted passes including his first two attempts as he had a disastrous home start
“First of all, I don’t really know or care anything about social media. I don’t even know what’s out there , so that’s irrelevant to me”

Right now the Patriots have one (1) QB, rookie Mac Jones… they’ll move WR N’Keal Harry to short-term IR and bring back Brian Hoyer
Judon’s been a pleasure to coach. Hardworking guy. Really instinctive as is Kyle (Van Noy). I have more background with Kyle,
Judon was everywhere. He had a strip-sack, a QB hit, and a play when he drew a holding penalty and still pressured Joe Flacco.
