Belichick said on WEEI yesterday that the Oakland game was Brady’s most impressive of the year, based on his audibles and decision making. Of course it’s not hard when Wes Welker is getting open every single down.
I’m very curious to see how the Jets deal with Welker. A one on one all day versus Revis would be fascinating to watch.

I would kill for the reverse angle of this shot from behind Branch as he kneels before the Black Hole in exaltation. The TV cameras caught it briefly, it would be an amazing shot if it exists.

Raiders just couldn’t get to Brady, nor get him off his game.

And the New England Football Machine rolls on…
Rapid Reaction
– I’m just going to assume Mayo is done since he was carted off. The only prayer could be if it’s just an MCL. But my Paty sense tells me it’s probably an ACL. Dane Fletcher and Gary Guyton will have to step up.
– This loss will do nothing to spark any kind of excitement that the defense turned a corner. It was the kind of performance that is becoming the norm for New England. I call it the “Live by the turnover, die by the turnover” defense. And today they lived by it. There were some bright spots, but still much to be improved.
– Stevan Ridley is really starting to come on. Not sure if Woodhead is really hurt, but if he is it’s a blow the Pats can withstand.
– Props to Patchung for playing and coming up with a big interception that was gift wrapped, but still…
– Give it up for the O-line in all phases of the game. Game winning performance.
– Not sure what Richard Seymour was doing out there, but I appreciated it. That was always the thing with Big Sey, sometimes he’d pull some total brain farts that left you scratching your head.
And just like that it’s on to the Jets. Let’s hope we can get some guys back healthy, if Love is injured we’ll need Haynesworth more than ever.
