The Patriots got outplayed by the trash talking Jets yesterday, plain and simple.  Tom Brady’s numbers look pretty good as he completed 29 of 45 passes for 299 yards with 2 TD passes and 1 INT.  He piled up a lot of numbers late in the game as he looked a tad off for the first three quarters in this game.  Danny Woodhead led the way on the ground for the Patriots in this game with 46 yards rushing on 14 carries (3.3 ypc) and he also caught 6 passes for 52 yards (8.7 avg).  BenJarvus Green-Ellis pitched in with 43 yards rushing on 9 carries (4.8 ypc) and he also caught 2 passes for 11 yards (5.5 avg).  WRs Wes Welker (7 rec, 57 yards) and Deion Branch (5 rec, 59 yards, TD) led the way in the passing game for the Patriots yesterday but they each dropped passes that hit both of their hands in this game.  TEs Rob Gronkowski (4 rec, 65 yards) and Alge Crumpler (3 rec, 39 yards, TD) also helped out big time in this game.  Crumpler also made  a huge play saving a TD in the first quarter when he ran down LB David Harris after a pickoff.  The Patriots finished up with 113 yards rushing on 28 carries (4.0 ypc) and they also completed 29 of 45 passes for 259 yards as they held onto the ball for 34:56.

The Patriots took it to the Dolphins yesterday in every facet of the game.  They did it without using many starters for the whole game, which was very, very impressive.  Tom Brady got his work in completing 10 of 16 passes for 199 yards with 2 TD passes and 0 INTs before taking a seat on the sidelines in the third quarter.  Brian Hoyer finished strong by completing 7 of 13 passes for 122 yards with 1 TD pass and 0 INTs.  BenJarvus Green-Ellis led the way on the ground for the Patriots in this game with 20 carries for 80 yards (4.0 ypc) with a TD run.  Fred Taylor was taken out of mothballs for this game and he rushed for 35 yards on 10 carries (3.5  ypc).  Danny Woodhead only carried the ball 2 times for 19 yards (9.5 ypc) in this game before leaving it with a concussion.  TE Rob Gronkowski led the way in the passing game for the Patriots yesterday with 6 grabs for 102 yards (17.0 avg) with 1 TD grab.  WR Brandon Tate (2 rec, 82 yards, TD) and TE Alge Crumpler (1 rec, 10 yards, TD) also had solid games for the Patriots.  WR Julian Edelman was on fire yesterday for the Patriots as he caught 3 passes for 72 yards (24.0 avg) and he also carried the ball 1 time for 13 yards.  Edelman also returned a punt 94 yards for a TD yesterday.  The Patriots finished up with 181 yards rushing on 45 carries (4.0 ypc) and they have also completed 17 of 29 passes for 321 yards as they had the ball for 36:19.

The defense was swarming the Dolphins all day long.  LBs Rob Ninkovich (6 tackles, 3 tackles for a loss, 2 sacks, 3 QB hits and 1 fumble recovery) and Jared Mayo (6 tackles, 2 tackles for a loss, 1 sack and 2 QB hits) led the way for the Patriots in this game.  NT Vince Wilfork (3 tackles, 2 tackles for a loss, 2 sacks and 2 QB hits) and CB Devin McCourty (interception) also had good games for the Patriots yesterday.  The Dolphins could only muster 44 yards rushing on 16 carries (2.8 ypc) and they also completed 16 of 37 passes for 206 yards.  The Patriots finish with a 14-2 record on the season which earns they the AFC Title and home field advantage throughout the AFC Playoffs.
