FOXBORO -- The Patriots were without several key components to their defense last night, including linebacker Adalius Thomas (broken forearm), defensive lineman Ty Warren (groin), and defensive backs Terrence Wheatley (wrist) and Lewis Sanders (hamstring), but linebacker Tedy Bruschi said that was no excuse for giving up 34 points to the Jets.

"That is the way it has been out there starting with Tom [Brady] at the beginning of the year," Bruschi said of the injuries. "You have to deal with it. You have to deal with things even as the season rolls and rolls. Guys are going to get hurt and guys are going to get aches and pains. Whoever is asked to go out there and play has to get the job done. We don't look at it as who is not out there. We look at it as how do the guys play that are out there. That is the way we see things."
