Longtime Rams defensive end Chris Long sure looked like he was having fun Sunday night in that Patriots defense.
He was running around the field like a kid again. Long repeatedly applied pressure on Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer during New England's stunning 23-21 victory in Glendale, Ariz.
Remember, the Patriots were 9½-point underdogs on the road with Jimmy Garoppolo starting in place of the suspended Tom Brady and tight end Rob Gronkowski sidelined by injury. They haven't been such a big underdog since Super Bowl XXXVI against the Rams.
