LeGarrette Blount to Patriots fans: 'Sit back and relax'
By Sam Galanis
Don’t worry, New England fans; the Patriots have plenty of time to regroup.
The reaction to Sunday’s ugly 20-10 loss to the Miami Dolphins obviously was not a good one, but there’s no need for fans to panic just because the Patriots wound up with the No. 2 seed after a Denver Broncos win. And New England running back LeGarrette Blount agrees.
Sit back and RELAXXX.... There's more football let for US!!! Let's go pats!!! #PatsNation pic.twitter.com/enAftZ7sSg

Blount wasn’t the only Patriot to take to Twitter to remind everyone the team has 12 full days to rest and practice before the divisional playoff round, either. Punter Ryan Allen and defensive end Rob Ninkovich also were thankful New England is getting some much-needed time off.
Hit the reset button, have two great weeks of prep and empty the tank!#Patriots

So, back away from the ledge, Patriots fans, because the team doesn’t seem too worried.
