Was at the Dome lastnight.To define it in one word "Ridiculous".

Lost in it all was Courtney Roby's touchdown saving tackle on Wes Welker's punt return.Not making that play would've resulted in the score being 14-3 Patriots.It was a play that changed the course of the game.A course from going back and forth,to the Saints dominating the game.We have play makers all over the field.This team has multiple weapons on offense,defense and special teams.20 different players have scored this season.Amazing!

Welker froze took a step to the right and was GONE through the gap - no additional cutbacks or ANYTHING. Roby came HAULING into the picture - so fast I thought Welker was going to find another gear... but he didn't HAVE another gear.

Ima gonna look up Roby's 40 time - back in a sec.

Roby is a legit 4.40 40 guy guy. Right on the money.
He has one of the fastest 3 cone drill times in the history of the nfl combine.

Great call...Roby looked like Chad Jones chasing down McFadden....except Roby didn't even have the angle.

those are the kind of hustle plays that are overlooked.It changed Belichek's game philosophy.Think about it.No way he goes for it on 4th down in the 3rd Q.With that tackle and next play INT,Belichek's thinking changed from kick the Saints while they are down,to we have to score on every posession to win this game.
