After a crappy three hour drive I’ve finally returned home from what was just about a perfect day. It could still end up being perfect but that depends on how hurt PatChung! is. Some general thoughts from the game which is even more general considering I haven’t even seen the highlights on TV yet.

– Robert and Jonathan Kraft made a pass by the Pats fans in the seats in back of the bench, shaking hands and signing autographs. I didn’t get a pic or video. Fail.

– We were surrounded by a great group of hard core Pats fans. Even got a spirited “de-fense” chant at the end of the game.

– Deaderick > Brace

– Cunningham and Ninkovich are the 3-4 OLBs. TBC and Crable are the third down pass rushers, with Pryor in the middle. Seems like it really breaks down that simply after today.

– Fletcher’s 3-3-5 nickel package was used for the second week in a row. Coaches must like what they’re seeing.

– I wonder how much the loss of Chung hurt this defense in the second half. Can’t stress enough how important he is to the defense. Initial indications from the Boston Herald is that Chung seemed like it wasn’t major. So that’s positive.

– Did Guyton get burned a lot in coverage today? Methinks he did.

– Yes we’re 5-1 but I think the addition of Logan Mankins back into the mix can only help this running game.

– Brady wasn’t his best, but having an INT-free day probably saved the game.

– McCourty. Wow.

– Butler was back out there, need to take a closer look at how much/how he did.

– Mayo is back to being a beast.
