    regardless of the outcome of this game (looking bleak to put it mildly), Foster always brings it and takes his game to another level in the postseason. I hope he can play like this for another 3-4 years while we figure out other aspects of the offense / coaching staff .

    Props to him. Figured we could use at least one positive thread in what will be a thread filled with negativity for the next several days.

    If he even has 4 or 5 more games like he has averaged, he will be in the top 6 or 7 all time for rushing by a RB in the playoffs. He has done well.

    We used to have the best RB duo in the league but Tate has fallen off the face of the Earth.

    Yeah, where has Tate been? I don't think he saw the field once today? I only spotted him on a bike on the sidelines.

    I think Arian's game hugely benefits from the change of pace provided by Tate, and even Forsett; though, especially Tate since his physical style helps soften defenses. Why have they gone away from a 2 RB game?? Who knows...

    Kubes doesn't trust him anymore is my bet. He'd rather stick to a 1-dimensional offense.

    Just read on twitter- one of the Pats beat writers tweeted that Robert Kraft waited by the Texans bus for Arian just so he could shake Arian's hand.

    Classy of him to do so, I guess Arian's effort today got him some respect with the crew up in New England.

    I was a little disappointed he took so long to try the outside lanes, as there was absolutely nothing open inside, but i guess that's not entirely his call.
