My biggest gripe from yesterday is that I hate when pass interference calls decide games. Regardless of whether they're legit or not, it's just a crappy way to determine an outcome. Moving on, the Patriots losing a home game is a VERY rare thing. Since Tom Brady became the starter a little over ten years ago, their home record is a combined 69-14. If you throw out the 5-3 home mark from the '08 Matt Cassel season, Brady owns a 64-11 career home record. In fact, in 5 of his previous 7 seasons as the Pats' QB, New England went 8-0 at home. But here's one more totally random stat that doesn't bode well for the rest of this year: in every full season that Brady has been the starter (and the Cassel year too), when the Patriots haven't gone undefeated at Gillette they've finished with a 5-3 home record.
TEBOMETER UPDATE:
If you're not familiar with the "Tebometer," read this.
Yeah, I know the Broncos won and Tim Tebow rushed for 118 yards yesterday, blah blah blah. But, only two starting QB's threw for fewer yards, and not a single one was more inaccurate. With his epic 10-21 (for 124 yards) performance, Tebow's career completion rate now stands at 48% (86-179), down .1% from last week. He has yet to go over 50% in any game this year.
