I really liked that play.

Who has been calling the plays lately? Is it someone new?
It seems like someone flipped a switch on this team, on both sides of the

I wish it was used when we really needed a first down. Since the game was a

play next something to think about. I don't see much advantage to that
other than we can probably not use the play again this year as teams will be
looking for it.

Maybe when they need a long distance FG the fact that the fake is a
real possibility might slow the rush.

The field at Gillette I was watching the highlights of the Revolution game on NESN this morning. I sure hope the Pats plan on doing something about the turf at Gillette before the upcoming football season. Simply put, that field is horrible. There are huge spots where the gra
