New England Patriots (7-4)
Volume Fifteen
New England Patriots (7-4)
Hey Fellow Patriots Fans!!!!
Was that a great game or what? Talk about pounding a team into
submission! Yesterday the New England Patriots went into Dolphin
Stadium and beat the Dolphins (48-28). The Patriots defense did give
up big plays in the secondary but they did well in shutting down the
running game which Miami is known for. I hope that Bill Belichick
finally starts to get the respect that he deserves. This could very
well be his greatest year of coaching in his career! Remember, Tom
Brady, Laurence Maroney, Adalius Thomas, Rodney Harrison, Lamont
Jordan and Terrance Wheatley are all out. And still the Patriots are
(7-4), one game behind the New York Jets in the AFC East. Matt Cassel
threw for over 400 yards yesterday becoming the first member of the
New England Patriots to throw for over 400 yards in back to back
games. He has over 800 yards and 6 touchdowns in his past two games.
That is because of great coaching! The Patriots have also gone over
500 yards of total offense in each of the last two games which is also
a Franchise record. The Patriots have also won their 23rd straight
game when scoring first. Bill Belichick is now (112-44) overall as
the Patriots Head Coach. The Patriots also stopped the Dolphins
winning streak at four games.

Game Notes
Randy Moss’ touch down in the second quarter was the 130th of his
career. The Patriots have now won 23 straight games when scoring
first. Matt Cassel threw for over 400 yards in each of the last two
games marking the first time in Franchise History that that has
happened. Crowder and Matt Light were both ejected after a fight
broke out between the two in the fourth quarter after a Stephen
Gostkowski field goal made the score (41-28). The Patriots went over
500 total yards in each of the last two games, that is also a
Franchise Record. Richard Seymour and Vince Wilfork each had
sacks on Chad Pennington.
