the Eagles for the final 48 minutes, you're going to bring it out against Miami and clean up

that stuff because Bill Belichick teams, they don't continue to have quality control issues.

Yes, they do.

Patriots have now lost nine, excuse me, seven of their last nine games dating back to last year.

And the only teams they've beaten in that nine game stretch are the hapless Cardinals

and the Dolphins last year who were quarterbacked by Teddy Bridgewater and Skyler Thompson.

Tootunga Vaila is now 5 in O against the Patriots.
