The Patriots defeated the Texans, 27-20, at Gillette Stadium Sunday afternoon.
Here’s what some of the players and coaches had to say after the game:
“I’m glad we have them.” — Bill Belichick on Rob Gronkowski and Tom Brady
Rob Gronkowski and Tom Brady were up to their old tricks.
The duo connected for its 76th-ever touchdown — the second-most between a quarterback and a tight end in league history — early in the first quarter. Brady hit Gronkowski with a 21-yard pass to put the Patriots on the board first.
“That’s two great players,” coach Bill Belichick said after the game.
