The New England Patriots are 1-1 going into the 3rd week against a tough Atlanta Falcons.We squeaked out of our 1st game against the Buffalo bills, which we should have lost, and we looked terrible last week against the New York Jets, what is our problem?
It is the great, Thomas Brady, #12 on the field and #1 in our hearts? Is it is surgically repaired knee that isn't allowing him to push off and throw accurate passes? I do not know, but I really hope not.
We are plagued with injuries on the defensive side of the ball as well as the offensive side. Our defensive captain, Jarod Mayo is out with a knee injury which really hurts our defensive scheme. Wes Welker is also out with injury which eliminates a critical option for Tommy and lets the defense really focus on #81, Randy Moss.

I am worried. I have been waiting for this football season since last year when #12 suffered his ACL injury and was sidelined for the entire year. I was waiting for last years season after we lost to the Giants in the Superbowl. So I have very high expectations for this year, and it hasn't started off as planned. Lets hope we can turn this around and gain some momentum this week against the Falcons.
Lets go Pats!
Thank goodness the Pats pulled out a win on Sunday! But they need to find a way to get into the red zone more often and not depend on field goals!!!
