Patriots tag Cassel

Feb. 5, 2009   Leave a Comment  

The New England Patriots have surprised no one by slapping the franchise tag on free-agent-to-be Matt Cassel. If the Patriots choose to keep him, they will be charged $14.65 million, as the franchise tag grants a player the average of the top five salaries in the NFL at his position. Depending on the rehab schedule [...]

Mayo wins NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year

Dec. 31, 2008   Leave a Comment  

In a landslide win of 49 out of 50 votes, New England Patriots linebacker Jerod Mayo has won the NFL’s Defensive Rookie of the Year. Mayo led a linebacker group that struggled at times with 137 tackles and proved the Pats were smart for grabbing him at #10 in this past April’s Draft. “Jerod’s done [...]

Things are getting wild

Dec. 16, 2008   Leave a Comment  

The future is in our hands, but also in the hands of the Jets, Seahawks, Dolphins, Chiefs, Ravens, Cowboys and the Jags. It’s not the best feeling to think that it is possible for us to go 11-5 and still not make the playoffs, but it’s the truth. At this point, the wild card is [...]

Pats playoff bound?

Dec. 2, 2008   Leave a Comment  

You know the saying, “when the going gets tough, the tough get going”? Well you might as well write that on the Pats locker room message board, stitch it on the back of their jerseys and have a blimp carry the message over Gillette. That is now the official slogan of the Pats. The going [...]

Brady’s 2009 season in jeopardy

Nov. 11, 2008   4 Comments  

NFL sources tell the Boston Globe that Tom Brady returned to Boston for a checkup on his surgically repaired left knee. The same sources confirmed that Brady has suffered from a postoperative staph infection that has slowed his rehab process. The good news is that, in all likelihood, the patella tendon graft will be kept [...]

Where are you New England Patriots?

Oct. 13, 2008   1 Comment  

The Pats are not a topic that I like to speak about as of late. My diehard passionate rants have been muted. I love Sundays, but now I wish they had more Monday night games (only one this year) so that I can have stress free weekends. Now that is a hard statement to write [...]

Thank God for the Bye Week

That’s it. The Pats need to reevaluate everything. But it isn’t just Cassel, who played decently until his defense let Ronnie Brown run all over them-not really over because no one ever touched him- more like around them. Cassel isn’t the best, but his team needs to step up and play better to support him. [...]

Let’s talk about that other team

A busy birthday week- yes the big 22- took me a little out of the huddle. But I’m back. The Patriots won on Sunday as everybody knows and was shocked to hear. The Pats were the underdog for some godforsaken reason. Wait,‚ what?‚ Compare the two teams. New England is stronger is every aspect. Compare the players [...]

NFL is wide open

Sept. 16, 2008   2 Comments  

After everything I’ve seen these first two weeks, the NFL is a crap shoot. There is no one dominant team and everyone looks beatable. Let’s take a look at some of the top teams and why they will and won’t make deep runs into the playoffs. AFC: New England Patriots Why they will: They are [...]

So it’s official- what’s next?

There is no need to go‚ into the details because we know what happened- Tom Brady is done for the year. An ACL tear took the superstar out of the 2008 season and now we are looking at a season without last years NFL MVP. So what’s next? At this point you have to assume not [...]

Brady Season Ending Injury?

Sept. 7, 2008   Leave a Comment  

Seeing Tom Brady walk off the field hobbling was a painful experience for many fans watching the opener, but the bottom line was that he walked off. Football fans know: if you walk off, there is a good chance you’re coming back. It looks like that isn’t the case. Now reports are surfacing that Tom [...]

Are you ready for some football?

Sept. 4, 2008   2 Comments  

As I sit here and watch the first football game of the season, I’m hoping for a Skins victory and an embarrassing loss for the Giants. I’m waiting for the comeback as it’s currently 16-7 Giants in the 3rd. But more than I’m wishing for a game one loss for the team that stole our [...]

I’m not a big fan of over the top introductions. The whole sit in a circle and act like you couldn’t be more excited to tell everyone your NAME and your MAJOR and your FAVORITE COLOR thing has always been my worse nightmare. So I’m gonna skip the big welcome and just say this… Nothing [...]
