Thursday Morning Third Down Back

 The 5 - 4 New England Patriots play Baker Mayfield and the Cleveland Browns at Gillette Stadium on Sunday November 14th at 1:00 PM. Hold on to that ball, Rhamondre Stevenson! I have no complaints after last week. Solid road win. Feels good to be over .500 again. Game ball to Jamie Collins. Jamie Collins' interception was insane. (Gah! Now he's on IR.) Subtle nod to Brandon Bolden. I'm not the world's biggest Brandon Bolden fan, but I'll  begrudgingly  admit he's been relatively good the last few weeks.

I just wanted to bring his name to your attention. Chuba Hubbard. Checking in on the WAD Scale (Wins Above Dalton), the 2011 Bengals were 6 - 2 at this point,  so Mac Jones is at a  -2 right now. Walker Power Rankings: 1) AT-AT 2) White  3) Jimmie 4) Paul 5) Texas Ranger 6) P.J. We haven't discussed the defense much so far this season. Here are three guys I'll be watching closely this week: 1) Matt Judon - 8 sacks on the season so far! One of the better recent additions. 2) Christian Barmore - Second round pick Christian Barmore looks like a real find. Bill doesn't usual...
