FOXBOROUGH – Off year for Tom Brady and the Patriots? Not just yet.
If this were Cape Canaveral, it’s still all systems go. If Admiral David Farragut coached the Patriots, it’s still damn the torpedoes and full speed ahead. If Mark Twain were the Patriot head coach, he would proudly proclaim to you that all the rumours of his death are greatly exaggerated.
In other words, all is still okay with the Patriots. Nothing has changed as January and the new year are just around the corner.
All the Patriots had to do to lock in the two seed and secure their annual first round playoff bye was to beat the 4-11 Jets at home.
