The Pats

[The Indomitable DrugS]

Tom Brady went 18 for 22 for 273 yards, three touchdowns and no picks - and hit Moss for a long bomb TD.

But yeah, the running game and defense - which looked so promising in the two other preseason games - both sucked horridly tonight.

Rex Ryan talked about how his defenses always played like sh!t in the game after they broke camp in the Hard Knocks episode ... you're right - it was disconcerting ... but the passing game is what matters most..and it was there all day in terms of stats production.

I DVR'd it and will watch the game later....before I offer my no doubt, highly valued take.
