“This was bloody as hell! A rage infested divisional fight. In spite of the game had less implication to play offs as a typical Pats vs Classics would be, the teams still fought tooth and nail. In the past such affair would have gone to Classics favor as far as long term damage is caused, even if they do less number of quality hits, but this time Pats players hit the jackpot with ankle, collar bone, skull, and knee breaking hits.

The drives were all high intense, and neither went the typical stalling ways. Classics won the important coin toss, and had a very aggressive and successful foul that consumed all tissues of the pats apothecary, but they could not sustain the pressure. Winston and Taylor risked their health for the team, while depitching Bell (likely career ending injury, but he can walk away like a true defending champ!), putting pressure on the ball, and being in the way of Foster and Jonckers. The 2nd drive went typical pats fashion, equalized pretty quickly. 1-1 at halftime. Then pats drive, but it got really messy really quickly, so elected to score early. (was actually forced by the beatdown of classics, well done.) Then came the 4th meaningful drive where pats managed to collapse the pocket around Reuben (former pats player, so coaches were very familiar with him), who went for the leap, but his leg got stuck into Bortles' face mask...
...clear turnover, both a foul and a crash landing. Then Pats' high priced and talented catchers did what they are paid for collecting the loose ball and racing for the final scoreline of 3-1.

What a game it was! Now on to the midseason trade window. Next opponent is unclear. (Could be Classics again, so could be any other division rival or KFCS team.)”
