The Patriots (10-3) beat the Texans (11-2) on Monday night by a score of 42-14! Wow, just wow. I cannot believe this happened. I mean I believe we could win, but I can't believe they only scored 2 touchdowns the whole game and their second touchdown happened because our backup quarterback Ryan Mallet threw an interception late in the game when we were up by a ton. Tom Brady threw 4 touchdown passes, Stevan Ridley ran for 1 touchdown, and Brandon Lloyd scored a weird touchdown. Brady threw to Danny Woodhead who fumbled it into the end zone which then Lloyd recovered the football in the end zone to score a touchdown. Aaron Hernandez caught 2 touchdown passes from Brady, and Brandon Lloyd and Donte Stallworth both caught 1 touchdown pass from Brady. Arian Foster, Matt Schaub, JJ Watt, and the rest of Texans did not play their best. Here's the grades.
Quarterback A
Tom Brady did a great job all night throwing for 4 touchdowns. He made long passes too during this game. Lloyd and Hernandez seemed to be Brady's favorite receivers during the game because he threw to them the most. He also threw for a lot of yards.
Offense A
Aaron Hernandez and Brandon Lloyd were the best of our offense. Hernandez had 2 touchdowns, and Lloyd had 1 touchdown. Hernandez had 58 yards, and Lloyd had 89 yards. They did a great job. Stevan Ridley ran for 72 yards did a great job last night.
Defense A
Our defense did a great job only letting up 14 points against the Texans who were 5th overall in the league in offense. They also got a lot of tackles during last nights game. They ruined a lot of chances for the Texans and Devin McCourty had a nice interception in the end zone to ruin their chance of a touchdown. We also had a sack on the night.
Kicking A
Stephen Gostowski also did a great job last night. Even though he didn't have to go for a field goal he made all 6 extra points in, which isn't a big deal but whatever.

So this was a big game for the Patriots in which they won. Tom Brady had his 24th career game with 4 touchdown passes and 0 interceptions. The Patriots are now 10-3, they haven't got a loss in the second half of the season since 2010. I think the Pats are going to keep playing like this for the rest of the season. They verse the 49ers next week and if they can beat the Texans, they can beat them. So what do you guys think about this win over the Texans? Do you think they're going to win their next 3 final games of the regular season? Comment!
