I feel like that's why they're scary. They don't need the best talent to crush good teams. They can insert just about anyone and be guaranteed 12 wins a season.Originally posted by Jasta:Originally posted by jrg:Patriots are scary.
They kind of aren't scary IMO.
Not like they have some weapon player you have to stop or some fearsome #1 in the league strength on the field... Bill Belichek is just Iceman from Top Gun.

They are scary, in the regular season.
They are the Spurs of the NFL. They will beat a talented team with a weak coach but will not be able to beat a talented team that is focused on not making mistakes.

I'd consider Gronk to be that weapon player, and probably thier passing offense to be that fearsome #1 in the league strength on the field if they're able to get most of their guys back.
The team is going to be gutted by FA next season though.

Beyond being Thursday night and in a different time zone, with the missing pieces for the Patriots, this game was tailor made for the Texans, and they blew it.
Still may end up winning their division, but that doesn't help me this week in the Pick 'Em.

I wonder if Julian Edelman will be the starting QB next week?
Mike Petraglia @Trags
Source confirms torn right thumb ligament for Jacoby Brissett. Suffered injury in 2nd half Thursday. Faces likely surgery for stabilization.

So Ricky Jean Francois has more sacks against New England than JJ Watt.

Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter
To recap:
OUT: Jamaal Charles, Sammy Watkins.
EXPECTED IN: Alshon Jeffery, Brandon Marshall, Julio Jones.
NEW STARTER: Karl Joseph.
Ian Rapoport @RapSheet
With Arian Foster out, the #Dolphins are treating rookie RB Kenyan Drake as the starter today, source said. Opportunity awaits.
