OK, New England answers the Miami TD with a 37-yard field goal from Steve Gostkowski. Now comes the big drive for the defense.

Sorry about the computer delays folks, but we are again up and running here at Foxboro, where the Pats find themselves in a 7-0 hole.

Here’s an interesting twist to the injury report this week. On Friday, Laurence Maroney was listed as questionable and recently acquired LaMont Jordan was listed as doubtful.

for the second straight week, a coach comes out with an awful performance. Can anyone explain the Jets huddling up inside of five minutes, down two scores. Mangini had his chance, but he was seriously outclassed by his ex-mentor. A masterful performance from the coach on down. Just an ugly effort by the NYJ, but [...]

pats go in and take control. The difference today boys and girls is quite simple. Mistakes. Penalties, Cotchery gets hit for an offensive pass interference to put NY in a huge hole, and Favre throws a pick. Meanwhile, New England has no turnovers and has been hit with one 5-yard penalty.
