Good news on Aqib Talib and Alfonzo Dennard

This was the biggest scare to come out of last night's game. While the Patriots absolutely demolished the Texans, they also lost their two starting corners.

Tom E. Curran has an ambiguous report that sheds some positive light on their status.


That's very good news as the Patriots have finally been looking like they have a legitimate pass defense the past few weeks. I thought Talib played his best game as a Patriot shadowing Andre Johnson. Ditto for Dennard who played great against Houston's other threats and even against Johnson when Talib went down.

Hopefully we can all breath a sigh of relief but we won't know much for certain until the team starts practicing. I'd still expect both to be limited or miss practice time.
