You want to be viewed as the best you have to beat the best.
Remember in 2009, the knock against us in the first quarter of the season was we had only played rookie QB's, then we beat Tom Brady, Kurt Warner, Brett Favre and Peyton Manning.
To avoid a slow start, the mindset from the last 3-4 seaons has to change.
Not looking forward to seeing Cooks in week 2, the Patriots will feed him the ball heavily.
Couldn't agree more. He doesn't want to go out a loser and is clearly desperate. He starts off 0-4 again, look out!
