2. Josh Gordon is awesome

My name is Sam Minton and I am in love with Josh Gordon. The trade earlier in the season may go down as the biggest steal in NFL history.

Gordon has only been a positive since joining the Patriots. If he continues to perform as he did in Week 9 he can miss as many meeting as he wants.

His best play of the game came in the 4th quarter. Gordon caught a beautiful pass from Tom Brady, broke a tackle, and made his way to the end zone.

Gordon finished the night with 5 catches for 130 yards. He looked amazing. The Patriots have a serious deep ball threat in Gordon. There isn’t a ball he can’t catch.

We saw Brady just throw the ball up to Gordon plenty of times. The wide receiver has earned Brady’s trust and should continue to be a major part of the New England Patriots offense.
