We kick off in two weeks and we have to play a helluva lot better than we played tonight,” Brady added. “That’s a good lesson for all of us I don’t care who you are, this is the NFL. It’s a very humbling game if you don’t bring it every single night, every week, you’ll get your butt kicked. There are great players on the other team. We have to do a lot better at all positions. I’m sure that will be a point of emphasis for us.

Working on the dime package (six defensive backs) seemed to be a top priority for the Patriots, and we saw safety Adrian Wilson move down to a linebacker-type role in that grouping. He was involved in Reggie Bush’s 67-yard catch-and-run, taking a bad angle that helped spring Bush free, and didn’t seem to be entirely comfortable reading and reacting to what was unfolding in front of him. The Patriots started Devin McCourty and Steve Gregory at safety, which seems to be viewed as their best coverage-type players at the position. Wilson came on in the second half.

[T]he Patriots have an elite free safety in McCourty ( 10.0 at the position last year including playoffs), and a number of safeties with unique skill sets: Wilson is a smart veteran who can contribute close to the line of scrimmage, Gregory is a nice compelemnt to McCourty’s single-high looks, Wilson can stick with tight ends, while Harmon has nice range in two-high looks. Belichick mixes and matches on a week-to-week basis as much as any defensive coach in the league, so look for him to tap into the various skill sets in his defensive backfield.
