Getty ImagesLike I said, this game could end up in the 50s.
The Patriots turned a 14-7 deficit into a 21-14 lead in a hurry, thanks to a 68-yard punt return by Julian Edelman, and a 59-yard interception return for a touchdown by the just-acquired Aqib Talib.
Talib picked an overthrown Andrew Luck pass (Reggie Wayne appeared to be quite open) and zig-zagged across the field for the score, a nice debut for the former Buccaneer. The play was made by Vince Wilfork’s pressure up the middle, which caused Luck to change his motion slightly.
But this one has all the marks of a game that will go back and forth all night, and be decided on the final possession.
Or, in the fashion of the early games, in overtime.

Pay the man. Defense looks better already. Tight coverage and actually turns around for the ball.
All his picks are over throwm or under thrown passes. Ask Eli how man on man works Bucs were up and he got his ass beat. Ask Romo adk RGIII ask Bress he sucks man on man under or over thrown pass he nails those
He ran all the way down the field without assaulting anyone or taking any banned substances. Well done.
He was not quite open c’mon he would have been destroyed if it was on target

He was exactly where he was supposed to be, in a zone.
Again, everyone who says he sucks keeps bringing up 1 game, the Giants game.
Aqib taketh and Aqib giveth.
Don’t worry, Aqib Talib always looks promising. The holidays are coming and he’ll soon be caroling “I Saw Mommy Pistol Whipping Santa Claus”. He’ll end up being a lump of coal in the locker room sooner rather than later.
Let’s give Gantt sone props for calling this one into the 50s early on
