Muffed punt. Jonathan Jones recovers for Patriots. Made two great special teams plays last week.

Bill Belichick said last week that Jonathan Jones' playmaking on special teams gives him "staying power."

6 plays for the Patriots so far, and LeGarrette Blount still hasn't seen the field

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 9:31:06 PM
Inside draw on third and 10? Take the ball out of Brady's hands?

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 9:31:39 PM
Gostkowski 45 FG is good. Patriots take a 3-0 lead with 12:27 left 1Q

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 9:32:13 PM
Stephen Gostkowski's 45-yard field goal is good and #Patriots strike first, capitalizing on the recovery. 3-0. bostonglobe.com/sports/patriot…

by Jim McBride via twitter 12/18/2016 9:32:22 PM
Patriots go nowhere on two drives, still take 3-0 lead off Gostkowski FG.

by Nora Princiotti via twitter 12/18/2016 9:32:47 PM
Jonathan Jones starts over Rowe and Coleman as CB3. Undrafted rookie has played well in limited action the last few weeks

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 9:35:19 PM
Jones got the start on defense. twitter.com/NoraPrinciotti…

by Nora Princiotti via twitter 12/18/2016 9:36:21 PM
Julian Edelman deep to receive the punt for the #Patriots

by Jim McBride via twitter 12/18/2016 9:36:55 PM
And on the 7th play, Blount finally enters the game. Cam Fleming also enters as a tackle eligible

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 9:37:41 PM
Brady throws incomplete to White, but that play had no chance even if White caught it. Brady starts 0 for 4, looks rusty

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 9:41:46 PM
Walt Anderson: "There was no flag on the play. The back judge's flag fell out of his pocket accidentally."

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 9:43:41 PM
TE Virgil Green very slow getting up after taking a hit from Chris Long.

by Nora Princiotti via twitter 12/18/2016 9:46:22 PM
Virgil Green was taken to the locker room. Looked dizzy getting up.

by Nora Princiotti via twitter 12/18/2016 9:47:27 PM
Virgil Green being evaluated for a concussion. Was taken to the locker room

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 9:48:32 PM
Virgil Green is in the concussion protocol.

by Nora Princiotti via twitter 12/18/2016 9:48:38 PM
Elandon Roberts getting run as the second LB today over Kyle Van Noy. Wasn't so great in pass coverage on that one

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 9:49:07 PM
McManus 33 FG is good, and it's 3-3 with 6:58 left 1Q. Patriots need to get the offense going

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 9:50:28 PM
Siemian overthrows Booker with Van Noy in coverage on third and 5, Broncos settle for FG. Tied 3-3.

by Nora Princiotti via twitter 12/18/2016 9:51:02 PM
McManus's 33-yard field goal pulls the #Broncos even 3-3. #Patriots about to get the ball for the fourth time. Brady has zero completions.

by Jim McBride via twitter 12/18/2016 9:51:16 PM
Patriots offense so far: 9 plays, 13 yards, 0 first downs, 0 completions

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 9:51:20 PM
Thunder the horse is wearing antlers on the sidelines. What a goof!

by Nora Princiotti via twitter 12/18/2016 9:51:46 PM
Dion Lewis rips off a 15-yard run, finally achieving the Patriots' first first down of the day

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 9:53:44 PM
Dion Lewis has the jump cuts working today

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 9:54:29 PM
Shea McClellin just played an offensive snap as an ineligible player lined up in the slot

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 9:55:29 PM
uhhhhhh Shea McClellin was just in on offense

by Nora Princiotti via twitter 12/18/2016 9:55:53 PM
Brady now 0 for 5 today. Off his game

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 9:57:15 PM
Patriots should do a new weird thing using Shea McClellin every week and then make it into a calendar.

by Nora Princiotti via twitter 12/18/2016 9:58:31 PM
Pretty sure the Pats just ran the same play from the Ravens playoff game, with 4 OL and McClellin as the ineligible instead of Vereen

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 9:58:31 PM
Ahh, yes, Jeff Heuerman. Of course.

by Nora Princiotti via twitter 12/18/2016 10:02:12 PM
There's a neon pink horse/rabbit (?) on the sideline just hanging out. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/Cz_awe5VQAAdwAf.jpg

TE Virgil Green is OUT with a concussion for the #Broncos .

by Nora Princiotti via twitter 12/18/2016 10:07:05 PM
Broncos say TE Virgil Green is done for the day with a concussion. But Broncos don't appear to need him. Moving the ball almost at will

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 10:07:09 PM
#Broncos tight end Virgil Green is out with a concussion. #Patriots

by Jim McBride via twitter 12/18/2016 10:07:40 PM
Ow. twitter.com/NFLResearch/st…

by Nora Princiotti via twitter 12/18/2016 10:07:42 PM
Logan Ryan with the INT. Siemian stared down Sanders the whole way, Ryan jumped the out pass. Great anticipation

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 10:07:54 PM
Logan Ryan with the 42-yard interception return for the #Patriots

by Jim McBride via twitter 12/18/2016 10:08:16 PM
1st INT of the year for Logan Ryan. Timely

by Ben Volin via twitter 12/18/2016 10:08:22 PM
Logan Ryan intercepts Trevor Siemian's pass intended for Sanders. Ryan runs it back to the Denver 46.

by Nora Princiotti via twitter 12/18/2016 10:08:56 PM
Jared Crick with the sack-strip on Brady, Joe Thuney recovers. Brady can't hold the ball that long in the pocket
