The game was closer than the final score, but the New England Patriots scored 14-straight points in the fourth quarter to knock off the Green Bay Packers 31-17 at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro on Sunday night.

With the game tied 17-17 and the Packers driving, Aaron Jones fumbled the ball away.  The Patriots went on to pull out the win.

The Patriots, who won their sixth straight game, used the trick play to outfox the Packers.  The Packers defense played well enough to win for the most part, but they had no answer for a pair of trick plays.

New England used a first half fleaflicker to set up a field goal.  Then in the fourth quarter, a reverse pass throwback from Julian Edleman to running back James White gained 37 yards, giving the Patriots the ball first and goal at the two.

The Patriots doubled Packers wide receiver Davante Adams much of the night.  Adams caught six passes for 40 yards and a touchdown. [Read more…]

The league suspended the Super Bowl MVP on Monday for the first four games of the season.  The NFL also suspended the Patriots $1 million and took away first and fourth round draft picks over the next two years.

In a message to Brady, NFL executive vice president of football operations Troy Vincent wrote, “Each player, no matter how accomplished and otherwise respected, has an obligation to comply with the rules and must be held accountable for his actions when those rules are violated and the public’s confidence in the game is called into question.”

Brady has three days to appeal the suspension.  His agent says it will happen.

The Patriots say they were ready to accept any punishment, but when it was handed down, the organization thought it was too severe.  They also feel the punishment was based completely on circumstantial rather than hard or conclusive evidence. [Read more…]
