Just didn't have it this week....Or I should say HIM this week. Because the Pats were in this game. Nobody gave them a chance and they were IN THIS GAME! Shame that Cam got sick and couldn't play because I think with Cam things would have been a little (very) different. But, we'll never know.

At the very least - we can be happy with how the defense played tonight.

We're on to Denver.

Back in the win column! Today the Pats gave the Raiders their first loss of the season in a dominant running performance and a great day by Rex Burkhead. LFG!

Week 2 came down to the final play of the game. The Patriots were in position to win it, but it just didn't work out this week. A lot of good stuff to build on, and plenty to improve upon. I haven't felt this good after a loss in quite some time. Just too bad they couldn't have pulled that off.

The Cam Newton era of the New England Patriots is finally here, and they start off this new season with a 21-11 victory at home against the Miami Dolphins in front of an empty Gillette Stadium.
