3 standout stars for Patriots in Week 14 victory

Here are the standout stars for the Patriots in Week 14.

With their backs against the wall, the New England Patriots handled business against the Arizona Cardinals after a rocky first half. They found life in the second half when the defense turned up the heat and shut down the Colt McCoy-led Cardinals offense.

By the end of the game, the unit had compiled six sacks and two turnovers, including a scoop fumble returned for a touchdown in a 27-13 victory.

The victory improved the Patriots’ overall record to 7-6 and paved the way for them to climb back into the playoff picture. It was a must-win game, and they needed an all-hands-on-deck mentality to come out on top.

However, here are the three stars that made the biggest impact on the game.
