New England Patriots vs. Detroit Lions

New England Patriots Tickets are available to the Pats’ final home game at Gillette Stadium against the Houston Texans on December 17.  Patriots Tickets are selling to that final game for anywhere from $60 to $858.  In the meantime, the Patriots met the Detroit Lions at home this weekend and narrowly came out on top, winning late in the game by a score of 28-to-21.

The problem with this one was one of effort.  The Patriots seemed, at times, listless and unenthusiastic against the two-win Lions, and it almost cost them the game.  The Patriots got lucky on this one, and got a little help from Cory Dillon who scored three touchdowns.  Still, you have to ask yourself, how long the Patriots can last continuing to play like this.  Sure, they’ll make it to the playoffs at this point.  But they shouldn’t expect to make it far playing like this.  The Lions almost took this one, embarrassing since the 2-10 Lions are just counting the days until the end of the season so that they don’t have to play anymore.
