The New England Patriots are 7-4 and the AFC East leaders following a 25-0 shutout of the Atlanta Falcons and a Buffalo Bills loss to the Indianapolis Colts.
New England has won five consecutive games, the league’s longest active streak, and had plenty to celebrate after leaving the Falcons scoreless at home for the first time since 1988. Kyle Van Noy had two sacks and a pick-six, Nelson Agholor got into the end zone for the first time since Week 8 and Nick Folk continued to be the most reliable player on the team.
Here’s the reaction in the locker room following the victory on Thursday night.
The Patriots’ next stretch will be the toughest they’ve had all season — with the Titans, Buffalo Bills, Colts and then the Bills again. But as everyone witnessed on Sunday, the Titans and Bills have vulnerabilities that Bill Belichick can expose.
