Vallee’s View: Patriots Pass Open Book Test, Breeze Past Niners

November 26, 2016

By Michael Vallee -Disqualifier Game:  If last week’s game against Seattle was a yardstick game, a game where the Patriots got to measure themselves against the league’s best, this week’s game against the San Francisco 49ers was the opposite.  A boring, empty, predictable formality of a 7-2 team yawning its way past a 1-8 mess, enroute to a 30-17 rain-soaked snooze fest.  If we learned a lot about the Patriots…
