Regular season after thoughts - New England Patriots Forums

Maybe this just hit me know...but does anyone else feel that time slows down throughout the week when we are not playing on a weekly or sometimes biweekly basis?

The off season is a pain and we all know it. But, It just seems to me that during the regular season, the weeks flew by and all I could wait for is the next time we play.

What says you?

Actually I feel like the weeks take forever during football season because all I am doing is waiting for the next game.

The 06-07 offseason FLEW by for me thanks to all our FA acquisitions. Everyday something was happening starting with BB coaching in the PB (and schmoozing with AD

) to finally getting Randy Moss.

Last year's offseason dragged (prolly due to the ending) but so far, this offseason's been pretty interesting

During the season the worst weeks are after a Thursday night game (jmo). No Pats football to look forward to over that weekend plus it really seems LONG til the following Sunday

This is the first "short" season we've had in a long time.

Never a dull moment tho

I try to do some scouting during bowl week (or, heck, month). It's gonna be a drag once the Senior Bowl is over; then come the dreary months between rookie camp and late July.

I gotta disagree. I love the offseason. There's no stress and its all team building. Now we can just relax & get ready for the draft. The season is the stressful - albeit, obviously most fun - part of the year.

Imagine the giddiness if something happened along the lines of a team giving the Patriots a top 5 pick for Cassel....

Each day that passes is one day closer to April with thoughts of a trade up for Malcom Jenkins or Taylor Mays

Or you know.... you could watch baseball, the NBA, or college hoops.

But yeah, the longest moments came during the season, waiting for Sunday.

It'd feel like beating the Colts in Indy. So maybe the offseason is capable of delivering in-season highs.

Of course, with the defection of Pioli and McD, there are some lows to be had, too...
