That being said, I think this Patriots team is, dare I think it, better than the 3 Bowl winners, and the line is certainly more mature and in sync. I haven't seen Light turnstiled yet this year, and the newbies are a little less new. As long as Mankins doesn't punch anybody in the rocks -- at least in sight of the refs -- it should be nuthin' but blue skies ahead.

Also, it was great to see Seau playing with such effectiveness, as well as his typical fire. Looks like he's 100 percent -- and maybe this won't be his last year, after all. Also, I didn't see the agate, but it looked like hard-hitting James Sanders notched a dozen tackles in the first half alone. That can't be true, but No. 36 was everywhere it seemed.
Haven't seen dominance yet this season from Bruschi, but I'm already launching a preemptive strike against anyone who dares say he's done -- didn't he lead the Pats in tackles last year? Calm down, everyone -- I truly believe that Tedy will get his, but the fact that New England has given up 35 points in three games -- that is, they have yet to yield as many points all season as they've scored in just one of their first three games -- shows that EVERYBODY on D is firing on all cylinders (pardon the cliche).

Seriously, it's hard to find anything not to like about yesterday's game -- at least Qs 2-4 -- except that, by failing to shut out the Bills, the Pats denied me 8 points in fantasy football, plus the fact that I missed Belichick's press conference because I had to drive to work. And, because I had to work, that meant I couldn't drink beer while watching the game. So a few problems, after all.
Regarding Wilfork, I truly believe he went in cleanly but, falling, ending up right at Losman's knee. I'm trying to find the clip of the hit, b/c I don't remember any arm swipe after the fact.

Vis-a-vis the defensive backfield: I haven't seen anything spectacular, yet, but it truly could be that they're playing so well that nobody's even had a chance, yet, to try any big plays 30 years or so past the line of scrimmage. It still looks like Asante isn't quite game-ready, and I haven't seen the big hits from Wilson or hard-hitting James Sanders that I'm accustomed to. But, again, it could be that not much has come their way: Adalius and Rosey sure ain't leaving much in the way of table scraps for them, if Weeks 1 and 2 are any indication.
And to think -- this is the Pats defense WITHOUT Seymour and Harrison. Koing!

And LT ... there's no crying in football.
