CHARLOTTE, N.C. — There was plenty to take away and digest from last night’s game with the Panthers. The most significant development from a Patriots perspective, particularly when the starters were in the game?
Surely, Tom Brady finally coming to life during the two-minute drill at the end of the half will calm some fears of fans who are worried Deflategate is getting the best of him.
It was also nice to see tight end Scott Chandler click with Brady in his first action in the preseason, but it would have been better if we had also gotten a taste of the two-headed monster with Rob Gronkowski, who was once again held out, so that doesn’t count.
