The other thing I noticed last night was the excellent blitz pickups on the part of the Patriots.   I don't know how much of this was scheme and how much of it was pure talent level (probably both), but I hope our HC, AHC/OLC and OC were taking notes.

Brady had a LOT of time back there most of the night.

I've been saying for a while that, in a copycat league, we should be copying the Patriot Way.  You have to go back to the Bill Russell Celtics to find a more dominant dynasty in a major pro sport.  But noooo, we're too smart for that.
