Patriots Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)

The easy choice would be to blame the Patriots' absence from the playoffs on the absence of league MVP Tom Brady, who tore up his left knee in the season opener and missed the rest of the year. The right choice would be to look beyond one position. Matt Cassel did a superb job as Brady's replacement—better than expected—by throwing for 3,693 yards with 21 touchdown passes and only 11 interceptions. Of the five games the Patriots lost, at least four can be pinned primarily on the defense's inability to make key stops at opportune times. The Patriots allowed 38 points in a home loss to Miami, 30 in a loss at San Diego, 34 at home to the Jets and 33 against the Steelers.
