Down go the Chargers, next up, the Colts!

Last nights win leaves me both excited and let down.
The Patriots did what they do best, win games. It wasn’t pretty though and in fact, I kind of feel bad for San Diego because they played a great game, and owned us most of the game.
The win this time though should really be credited to Troy Brown, a long time Patriots veteran utility player, managed to cause a San Diego fumble seconds after they intercepted Brady on 4th down. This gave us another shot at the end zone, which Brady executed beautifully. The two-point conversion was needed and executed with creativity, leaving the Chargers shaking their heads as the game was tied at 21.
The Patriots, as they have in so many years past, won yesterdays playoff game by a field goal. This year though it wasn’t Adam Vinatieri, who is one of the best clutch kickers in the game, instead it was rookie Stephen Gostkowski.
Next week it’s the Colts, a long standing rival. Here’s hoping the game is a good one, regardless of outcome.
