Little worried about The Chiefs now, CAT? :D
Nah. :p

I actually didn't see very much of it, turned it on a little before halftime and things are so crazy and topsy-turvy here, I was completely worn out and asleep not long after 3rd quarter started. But what I did see was so...I don't know, it is just not normal to see the Pats play so badly. Left me feeling a bit discombobulated. :confused:

Discombobulated is the word of the day in Patriots Nation.

Right, Ms. Mod?
Thankfully, we chose to watch the regular Monday night line-up so missed the debacle and were not discombobulated until the 11 o'clock news. We did catch that nice TD pass to Gronk that got them up to 14 points, though. What happened to Brady? Did they pull him because they were so far behind or did he get injured?

No injury that has been disclosed and to be honest I was counting sheep when they yanked him. I think they figured what the heck give the kid a shot, but now you know it will create a media storm. They said on the radio that a reporter asked Bill B. at the news conference if this meant there was now a QB controversy in New England. The Coach didn't give an answer, but apparently rolled his eyes or something similar.

They do need to have a QB on standby but to think that that alone is going to remedy the Patriots' pathetic performances this year is missing the total picture of why they're not playing up to standards of years past. There is no team cohesiveness this year. That's why they were such a force to be reckoned with before--it wasn't just Brady's efforts alone.

Were you listening to sports radio this morning? :D

That's EXACTLY what they said.

The game was already lost when Brady was taken out. No sense leaving him in there, especially considering their offensive line issues.

That's it in a nutshell. Can't run, can't give Brady time. Incognito still out there?o_O
