21 including postseason, 18 not counting postseason. As a pats fan, I think it's not a bad thing to lose this game. The Steelers just flat out played better, they deserved the win. The Pats haven't exactly been playing lights out for the past month. They only did ENOUGH to win. Maybe this is a good wake up call. The pats are always really vague when it comes to injury reports as well. Brady has been listed as probable since the start of the season every week. I wonder if his shoulder his worse than he is letting on. Deion Branch hasn't played for liek 5 weeks already, out with a knee injury. I hope it's nothing too serious. Branch was the biggest deep threat the Pats had and his loss is not to be overlooked. Anyway, Big Ben played a great game. shades of brady in 2001.
