Week 5: New England Patriots 30, New York Jets 21 (4-1) (Sunday, October 9, 2011)

A nice, solid win for the Patriots! Wes Welker and Ben-Jarvus Green-Ellis both had big days on offense, and for once the defense wasn’t a totally leaky sieve! The game was hard-fought as most divisional games are, and the Patriots employed the Jets’ ‘Pound ‘N’ Ground’ running game. So much for being a finesse team, eh, boys? ;)

The Patriots are tied at the top of the division with the surprising Bills at 4-1, the Jets drop to 2-3, and the Dolphins were (mercifully) on a bye week and remain at 0-4. ;)

The Pats wore their throwback uniforms and looked good in red! :)

Next week: the Cowboys! Let’s hope Tony Romo coughs up the ball a couple of times in the fourth quarter as usual. ;)

EDIT Ack! How could I forget that the Boston Bruins brought the Stanley Cup to Foxboro! ;) Thanks to northern_star for reminding me! The Cup has been all over New England and in every North End Italian restaurant in existence since June, so why not Foxboro? ;)

( Johnny squeezed Mel’s hand, releasing it as they walked down the midway of the Chicago World’s Fair carnival, attached to the main Fair. He loved anything to do with the Fair and couldn’t get enough of it. The air was chilly as befit an October night. )
