Another Marshall University QB for Belichick & the Patriots D to chew on. These long time rivals have had some great battles. I'm not a big fan of Penny's game. However, much like Brady it may not look pretty but he gets the job done. He & Santana have developed a great connection with each other. The critics(me included) who thought this offense would suffer after the loss of Coles have been proven otherwise. Martin former Patriot is still going strong. On defense the loss of Abraham has not dampened the pass rush for NY. The emergence of Shaun Ellis has been a big reason why they have not lost a step. Last week the Patriots offense had one of it's best games all year. Defensively they have been outstanding each week. The Pro Bowl selections were announced yesterday. Only Ty Law & Richard Seymour will be representing the AFC's #1 team in Hawaii. Hopefully this slight will somehow motivate those that didn't make it to take out their anger on their next opponent. Guys like Bruschi & Harrison should be especially pumped up. Patriots Statistical Breakdown: Tom Brady ~ 200 yards passing, 1 td & 2 ints Kevin Faulk ~ 60 yards rush, 30 receiving Antowain Smith ~ 40 yards rushing & 1 TD Larry Centers ~ 10 yards receiving Troy Brown ~ 50 yards receiving Deion Branch ~ 50 yards receiving David Givens ~ 20 yards receiving Dedric Ward ~ 10 yards receiving Christian Fauria ~ 10 yards receiving Daniel Graham ~ 20 yards receiving & 1 TD Adam Vinatieri ~ 1 FGs & 2 PAT Jets Statistical Breakdown: Chad Pennington ~ 300 yards pass, 3 TDs & 2 INTs Curtis Martin ~ 100 yards rush, 40 yards rec & 1 TD LaMont Jordan ~ 30 yards rush & 1 TD, 20 yards rec Jerald Sowell ~ 20 yards rushing, 20 yards receiving Santana Moss ~ 130 yards receiving & 2 TDs Curtis Conway ~ 40 yards receiving Kevin Lockett ~ 20 yards receiving Anthony Becht ~ 30 yards receiving Doug Brien ~ 0 FGs & 4 PATs FINAL SCORE PATS17 JETS28 As you can see, I have a BAD feeling about this game. I just think the Patriots are in for a wake up call on Saturday night in the Big Apple.
