Phew. I don’t know about you guys, but I think it’s science that this was the longest 4-day week in history.

New England’s defense, aside from a nasty early-season case of looking like they wouldn’t know who to cover in a pickup basketball game at the YMCA, also got rocked by a 1-2 punch of injuries and guys that were supposed to be solid role-players not working out. Both of New England’s Crimson Tide alumni, one-man wrecking crew Dont’a Hightower and hopeful starter Cyrus Jones, are on injured reserve.
