Should be a good game.

I am a huge Patriots fan so go Pats!

Lee Evans had the game winning touchdown pass in both of his hands in the endzone and couldn't hold on... then Cundiff misses a 30 yard chip shot.

Vince Wilfork player of the game. Brady was pretty pooty tang, actually.

But congrats to he & Belichick. They just find a way to get it done again and again.

next to the Giants game. 

Brady wasn't that bad at second glance. He missed Gronkowski on a TD. And while both his picks weren't great throws, the Ravens secondary made great plays on each catch. I mean, you watch Eli Manning throw up at least 3 much more dangerous passes that are just dropped by the 49ers and you realize how much luck is involved in not throwing an interception into coverage. 

He also made a great touch throw to Gronkowski that was barely out of bounds and on second look actually looked like it might have been inbounds and made it first and goal. I'm surprised that wasn't a bigger talking point at the time it occurred. 

Plus the Ravens just played great defense. On Brady's last throw to Hernadez, watching all the replays, there is literally no one open. He puts the ball in a good spot and Reed just makes a great play. 

Not Brady's best game but not nearly as bad as it seemed the first time around.
