With a 28-21 loss to the New York Jets, the New England Patriots season is over. All eyes now will move to the 2011 NFL Draft and how the Patriots can build on an impressive, yet disappointing 2011 campaign.
We’ve got you covered here at NE Patriots Draft for all your 2011 NFL Draft needs. To get you started, here is the list of 2011 Draft Picks for the Patriots.
The Patriots rallied from 14-3 down on Thanksgiving day to beat the Detroit Lions in a 45-24 romp. Tom Brady ended the day with a perfect 158.3 rating, 10 years after making his debut with the Patriots.
After the jump, we have our Gameballs and Goats.

How awesome of game is this for Patriots fans? Tom Brady returning to the place where he recorded his first stats 10 years ago, against the same team, on the same holiday. That evening Charlie Batch was the top passer as the Lions trampled the Patriots 34-9… Terry Glenn was the top receiver. (woah)
These 2-8 Lions are definitely not going to walk all over Tom Brady and the Patriots this Thanksgiving, but they also might not be as bad as their record suggests. With only three full days of rest the Patriots are walking right in to another trap game back on the road: the only place they’ve lost this season. Happy Thanksgiving from NEPD!
Tom Brady certainly put some extra mustard on the ball tonight, while playing at Heinz Field of all places. He finished with over 300 yards and 3 TD passes.
His Patriots demolished the Steelers by a final score of 39-26, moving to 7-2 on the 2010 season.
Patriots fans all around the nation will be dreaming of scenes like this one all afternoon... 8 P.M. here we come...

It’s been a couple of years since Tom Brady and the Patriots (6-2) have squared off against their AFC counterparts of the North: The 6-time World Champion Pittsburgh Steelers (6-2). Whether it’s the Playoffs or the regular season, games between theses two rarely disappoint.
