Finally got to watch the Patriots.

They were on a bye week last week so football was a little scarce. This week they played the New York (New Jersey?) Jets.

It was in interesting game with the Jets looking like they a knew how to play football and the patriots looking like they forgot how to play football. By the time the game was over with, the Patriots had 10 penalties against them.

Tom Brady looked all of his 41 years and Rob Gronkowski looked like a 30 year old tight end who has taken a beating over the last 10 years. The game was tied 10-10 at the half when it should have been 21-10 in favor of the Patriots.

I'm thinking the Patriots better think about their next quarterback because if Brady makes it through this season, I'm betting he won't make it through next season. I remember when Bledsoe imploded back in 2001 and Brady took over as the QB. Brady is looking at the same situation now.

The man is not in his 20's anymore and it shows. His passes aren't as sharp, he is starting show fear in the pocket and he looks like he's struggling to find receivers. He threw two passes to Gronkowski in the end zone that weren't on the mark with one of them almost intercepted.

The second half seemed to go a bit better simply because the Patriots stuck to the running game and Sony Michel and James White managed to make us all forget that the Patriots didn't offer Deon Lewis a lot of money this summer.

The Patriots ended the game with a 27-13 win.


Not much going on in the world today. I looked at a lot of links and these are the only ones I could find that were at least a little interesting:
