Tom E. Curran joined Mike Felger in studio for Sports Sunday, and the two talked about how the Patriots are looking over the last few weeks.
Take the stats against the Jets with a grain of salt for obvious reason, but even so, they are starting to click, according to Curran.
"Starting to see that little trend that they start to kick in when things get fixed," Curran said. "And you wondered how long it would take before they did start to fix them, and you can smell it, you can smell it."

And it smells great. So what's the big reason for the improved play? Curran looks at coaching.
"I'll slap it on Josh McDaniels, because I think early in the year he was pretty brutal because he was trying every different lever to figure out what worked well ... I think he's finally figured out who he wnats to give the ball to, what the identities are and I think that that has made a huge difference."
