i sure hope our patriots picked up a few cases of tequila on their way back from mexico city, because shots are definitely in order after this rout of the raiders. winning is better than losing, but winning by a whole bunch is soooooooooo muuuuuuuuuuch better than that. uno mas, patriotitos!
i think i'm finally starting to see the whole "tom brady is playing some of the best football of his career" thing everybody's been talking about all season. while i'd have liked a little more productivity in the red zone, our fearless quarterback went 30 of 37 for 339 yards and three touchdowns - including a super pretty long pass down the field to brandin cooks. tommy did some other good stuff, too, but holy crap! did you see that pass to brandin cooks? i'd say we should play all our games at altitude, but looking at this, maybe that mexico stadium is so big that the laws of physics just don't apply.
our new-and-improved defense continues to new and improve, this week holding the raiders to one late game score and forcing two turnovers. muy bien, boys, but you had some stiff competition for this week's totw. this one could easily go to cooks (see the aforementioned holy crap) or to stephen gostkowski, who nailed his 62-yarder along with three other field goals, but in a fit of prerogative, i'm giving the tommy of the week to its namesake. there are lots of reasons - but really, do i need one? gracias, tomas!
after rockin on the road, we head home to play miami on sunday in a very peculiar stretch of back to back to back to almost back to back divisional games. think your happy patriots thoughts while you're enjoying your turkey - and save a little room for fish!
have a happy thanksgiving and a great week- and go pats!
love dav
