Murray's ill-advised throw that was intercepted was brought back because of a roughing-the-passer penalty. Trey McBride caught nine passes on 10 targets for 87 yards, while Conner had five catches for 28 yards.

The Patriots were 0-5 on third downs in the first half. That was a big reason why they only scored three points in the first two quarters. The other reason was due to their offensive line play. In their first three series, a penalty, missed blocks, and a bad snap contributed to them going scoreless.
