THE GOOD
The New England Patriots First Team Offense and Defense
This goes without saying. Mark Anderson, Chad Ochocinco and Albert Haynesworth (sidelined) have all elevated this team. Getting Stevan Ridley and Ras-I Dowling in the draft and Bodden back make them the second most talented team in the AFC (behind Baltimore).
Josh Johnson
He threw an interception but rebounded nicely, accounting for 67 of the 84 yards on a touchdown drive.
Elbert Mack
Mack netted a 69-yard interception return for a touchdown.
THE BAD
The First-Team Defense
It was a great learning experience, being defeated by the up-tempo, Tom Brady-run Patriots attack.
THE UGLY
The First-Team Offense
Five possessions, no points, five punts. Ugly. It will be nice to get Arrelious Benn back this week.
