Patriots got robbed on the play before. I saw touchdown from several different angles. They were going to score anyway, so maybe the refs were trying to make it look good.
Quoted from embryonjohn:The Patriots are a thoroughly flawed team right now. 1 and out in the playoffs...
Less flawed than most other teams. What I see from Brady reminds me of when I was 40 years old. I may have to add him to the 70s thread.
Quoted from o-din:What I see from Brady reminds me of when I was 40 years old.
That says it all, really.
The Patriots are flawed yes. As is every other team. Many injuries as well on the offensive side of the ball. Their defense is best in the NFL. They are easily best team in football. The division is a lock. First round bye is basically a lock. I'll see you at the superbowl
Quoted from fosaisu:That says it all, really.
He's got my respect now. Ever since early in the game when he scooped up that ball with his left hand.
The Patriots were favored by 17, and they won by 21 points.
They won on the road, scoring 14 points in the 4th quarter, and they are now 6 and 0.
Looking at scores of first 6 Pats games, it seems like the Bills game at Buffalo was the only close game.
The Pats toughest part of their season will be coming up from Nov 3rd thru Dec 8th (@_Ravens, @_Eagles, vs Cowboys, @_Texans, & vs Chiefs)
No doubt the Pats are looking really good. Maybe by early Dec, we will know if they are beatable this year.
Let's hope KC Chiefs (or Bills or Chargers, or …) win the AFC Championship game and make it to the Super Bowl,
...and get to play the Saints in Feb. 
That game was pretty close, or at least felt sort of close through the 3 quarters. The difference is the Pats are closers. If that were another team, they might have been falling over themselves to find a way to lose. The Pats minimize mistakes, make the most of opportunities, and walk away with wins.
Quoted from Deaconblooze:The Pats minimize mistakes, make the most of opportunities, and walk away with wins.
And that sucks for the rest of us.
Until someone beats the Pats their still the champs....I'll say this a team with a great defense has the best chance as clearly their offense is their weak link. Be interesting to see how they are when they play some decent teams. They've been pretty luck to play in footballs weakest division.

Definitely different than pats teams of the past. They always seem to find a way.
They aren't my team, but I certainly have lots of respect for them.

When u get to the top 10 or so teams in the NFL theres a lot of parity. Every team is one or two injuries away from being mediocre ...
I enjoy watching about any football team, but tomorrow, 10/13, I am really hoping Denver and Arizona can both get their 2nd wins of the season.

Tomorrow is going to be an awesome football day. That Pats played Thursday and won, so now I get to watch 7 straight hours of Red Zone. When your team isn’t playing, it’s by far the best football experience. No commercials. Totally worth the extra few bucks a month.

Not to mention, no stress when it happens that way!
Quoted from RWH:Not to mention, no stress when it happens that way!
If you're feeling any sort of stress from watching a sporting event, you're doing it all wrong.
Remember, it's a form of entertainment. Nothing more, nothing less. There are hundreds of other things you could be stressing about on a Sunday afternoon.
I'm really looking forward to the powerhouse Redskins/Dolphins game....should be some quality football played 
Im hoping my Niners show up in LA today....their pretty decimated on offense with 2 starting tackles , starting Full back, and two receivers out.... should be interesting to say the least....the only chance I give them is if they force a bunch of turn overs and Garoppolo doesn't throw a bunch of shitty passes.
Dolphins have only had the #1 overall pick twice. The first was Jim Grabowski in 1966. The last was Jake Long in 2008.
Quoted from o-din:Dolphins have only had the #1 overall pick twice. The first was Jim Grabowski in 1966. The last was Jake Long in 2008.
They will get the number one pick again this year and try again with Ricky Williams.
Quoted from bssbllr:Eagles let the kickers kick and the QBs throw.
Yeah, this game was gross on my end. Eagles won’t go far if they’re going to allow all these deep pass plays and don’t improve their secondary.
Sam Darnold came in and completely changed the Jets offense. Of course, the 4 Dallas penalties didn't hurt!!
Quoted from Daditude:Sam Darnold came in and completely changed the Jets offense. Of course, the 4 Dallas penalties didn't hurt!!
Ok...that is probably the most painful back to back plays I've seen in years....
Jason Garrett once again deserves es to be considered a mediocre coach for Dallas. If they lose today will have lost 3 in a row today against a previously winless coach. Jerry Jones as owner and the Garrett combo a stuck in giving fans hope for awhile but ultimately disappoint. I still think Jerry Jones was so wrong to fire Jimmy Johnson as coach and since that era and the team of that time no trips to the Super Bowl. And none coming soon I'm afraid.
The Patriots resigning Jamie Collins for 1.1 mil solidified the D and may have fated another Lombardi trophy, but look at his contract:
• $150K to sign
• $900K base ($100K guaranteed)
• $850K in per-game roster bonuses
• $100K workout bonus
• $2M in (complex) playing-time incentives
• $500K Pro Bowl incentive
• $500K All-Pro incentive
He has to earn every dollar!!!
They continuously amaze me.
Three flags in a row is ridiculous. There was no interference on Elliot. You might as well just hand Dallas the game.
Now 5 flags in a friggin row!! These games are becoming unwatchable. I’m not even watching plays anymore. I’m just seeing if there’s a flag indicator in the lower right corner of the screen.
Quoted from jorge5240:The Niners are fucking awesome!!!!!!
Their defense is legit....should have won by 3 touch downs....
