Every now and then a team needs a little *****-slap to wake them up and let them know they aren't quite as good as their record may indicate.
Unfortunately we had to get ours from Mangina and the Browns.

Stinker in Cleveland. We got our butts kicked. Out-played in all three phases of the game and then out-coached too.
Brady was off target all day and when he did hit his receivers, (especially Gronkowski who had the worst day a receiver could have), they dropped the ball. The defense was exposed for what it is. Young, inexperienced and prone to the roller coaster highs and lows of an emotional team. When they're high, they play well, when low, they play poorly, like yesterday. Credit to Mangini and all the Cleveland coaches, they did a good job of exploiting the Pats weaknesses. They covered the short passing game well, did not give Brady much time to throw and most importantly won most of the battles on both the offensive and defensive lines all day. Colt McCoy looked like the real deal and he exposed the glaring lack of a real pass rush by the Pats and the defense's inability to deal with a mobile quarterback. This is not a good way to start the stretch of games they are facing, (Steelers, Colts and then Lions on Turkey Day). Too often other teams see a blueprint developed by a good opposing teams' plan and build upon it. The Patriots are going to really have to work hard to be ready for Sunday night against the Steelers.

So what the heck happened with the Patriots? Did they forget that they had a game to play?

Anyone want to bet a nice NC 5vr on this game with a Steeler fan?

I think most of us would want to put a 5'er on the Steelers as well.

Sorry brother, after the dump they took in Cleveland and a cast-off Bengals replacement kicker combined with the fact that they are playing surrounded by 300+ lb mustachioed Stillers fans in Heinz (and that's just the ladies) - I'm not going near this game.

I don' feel confident today for the Pats, but Steelers have some injuries and no one wants to play the Pats coming off a loss.
Steelers are my AFC Superbowl pick, but I'd rather be wrong and see the Pats there.

Great win by the Pats. I hated watching them crush the Steelers.

Didn't get to watch it because of the time difference but there is nothing better then waking up to a Pats victory(ok maybe a few things are better).
On another note, I wonder if Big Ben asked "hey do you think leaving the Patriots was a good idea?" before getting leveled? |
