Give all the Jags the credit they deserve. They played great. Bortles hit some amazing throws early. The defense swarmed around Gronk.
As for the Patriots, where do we start? The entire team and the coaching staff gets a big fat goat mark from me (worst grade belongs to the OL).
Having said that, we know this will be a different team come November and December. That's what matters. Until then, they need to get healthier fast. Cannon's absence especially hurts. Waddle is a liability at RT. Not having Edelman has Brady struggling to find its non-Gronk 3rd down option.
Onto Detroit, where the hapless Lions await. Get the job done and NE plays 3 straight home games, vs the Phins, Colts, and the Chiefs.
I'm concerned but not worried.
