This game doesn't mean much in terms of bragging rights. No real super bowl rematch, as most of the starters will sit this one out. But it is crucial for roster cuts. Who will back-up brady. Will sammy morris or BJE, or both make the team.

Go patriots!

What started off looking like a sh*t show, turned into an awesome game. Even though a lot of these guys are gonna be cut, and struggling to make it on to the practice squads around the league, you've got to love the resiliency of them. I think it all started with the dirty hits from the giants. One after another, tynes, their d-backs, their hit on hoyer when he went into a slide. It was 21-0 and the patriots came roaring back.

-Hoyer got better as the game progressed. I think he made a spot on this team. Even if they trade for feeley, he could make it on the pats practice squad.

-Ben-Jarvis Green-Ellis earned his roster spot. He made up for that fumble against the bengals in this game.

-Our d-line looked good. I think that could be our strong part of the defense not only this year, but in the future as well.

-McGowan had a nice pick-off return.

-Poor slater, he looks done for a little while. I cringed on that play.

On to the cuts, then the games that really matter.
