FOXBOROUGH, Mass.

He admitted to getting emotional about facing the Patriots on Sunday night in “a great stadium for me.” He mentioned the “Patriots-type weather” and the supportive crowd —for the home team, not for the visiting quarterback. He even recognized how annoying “the foghorn” that rallies the New England defense can be. Oh yeah, he also cherished a 19-17 victory that was anything but vintage Brady, but was good enough.
