Winning Ugly with the New England Patriots

The New England Patriots may not be the prettiest team, the most graceful, and certainly not the most spectacular team to watch, but they win. So who cares? So long as the NFL doesn’t start awarding style points, winning is all it takes to keep going and that’s just what the Patriots did this past weekend against the Chicago Bears. In a game that featured nine turnovers, the Pats managed to pull ahead late in the game and win 17-13. New England Patriots Tickets to their upcoming game against the Detroit Lions are still available.

Steve Grogan is now a guest writer at Patsfans.com, a blog dedicated to the New England Patriots. The former Patriots quarterback says that this weekend’s game was strange to see. “You don’t see many games where a team fumbles the ball twice on the same play, or a ball that pops 10 feet in the air and then is intercepted.”
