Week 3: State of the Patriots

Two weeks in, and the Pats are 0-2

The first two weeks of the season have been a rollercoaster ride of coin flips. One side of the coin reveals the semblance of a competent offense, a stark contrast to last year's debacle. Yet, flip that coin, and there lies the all too familiar sight of a team plagued by indiscipline and riddled with costly mistakes.

The defense looks solid. We still need to prove it against the tougher offenses, though.

The offensive line looks worse than it did last year. Let's hope we get our starters back and healthy, or else this will be a rough year.

On to the Jets

Wilson's not done well against us, as he remains winless at 0-4. He's completed only 51% of his passes for 693 yards, throwing two touchdowns and a whopping seven interceptions in just over 13 quarters. Additionally, he's been sacked 11 times.

The defense is no joke, though. This could be another week of us screaming at the TV.
