Season Record: 1-1

Atlanta Falcons vs New England Patriots
Sunday September 27th. 1:00 PM.
TV: FOX 25. Radio: 98.5

Moss and Welker are listed as questionable.

Matt Ryan is a good QB, and Tony Gonzales has only done wonders for him. There is also the offense to think about. Will brady be brady?

go pats!

Anyone watching this game and posting?

Both offenses looked great before they hit the red zone. A couple key ****ups on the Pats part with Brady missing Moss on that deep ball, then Galloway being out of bounds on the sure td.

Yeah, Brady's accuracy is still looking awful on anything over 20 yards. The run game looked good on that first drive.

I continue to be impressed by Maroney's decisiveness this year.

Damn, great play by the Atlanta db there on Moss

The rebirth of Fred Taylor in Foxborough today

Our pass coverage is awful. Recievers seem to be open everywhere. :/

Is it bad when Im discouraged to see the Pats in the shotgun, even when I have Brady as my fantasy QB?

Progress...

Gotta love a win, no matter how you get it.

Thoughts:

-Fred Taylor: we need more of fred taylor.
-I think the worry of Brady was a little overblown, it was bad out, and the receivers were dropping balls. Sure he wasn't always hitting his targets, but to freak out over him is ridiculous. That pass to baker sure was nice.
-I'm loving Leigh Bodden more and more. Too bad we only have him signed for one year.
-No picks, but this team sure can create big turnovers when needed. Just jar the ball loose and hop on it.
-The O-Line did fantastic.

The injuries were worrisome. No word on wilfork yet. I hope him wright and maroney are all alright. Big vince would be a huge loss.

Icness said Wilfork just turned his ankle and will be fine.

As for the game, a very nice win against a solid team.

My three Stars go to:

Fred Taylor- Really ran the ball hard and gave the team a much needed boost.

Randy Moss- He was hurting and came up with a big game. 10 Catches for 116 works for me.

Brandon McGowan- This guy can really lay the lumber. I'm starting to really like this guy.

My Three Duds of the game:

Joey Galloway- Why did the Pats keep this guy again? Making rookie mistakes, he's been terrible.

Jarvis Green/Derrick Burgess- Where the hell are these two? Start putting some pressure on the QB.

Laurence Maroney- He ran fine, but yet again an injury. This guy just can't stay on the field.
