Patriots DE Adam Butler has quietly been proving that he deserves a contract extension.
Despite playing an objectively ugly brand of football, the New England Patriots somehow managed to defeat the Arizona Cardinals at home on Sunday.
Not only did the Patriots lose the time of possession battle by nearly nine minutes (34:08 to 25:52), but they also lost the turnover battle and came up short in total yards, first downs and sacks.
