PATSNUTme

Just picked up a copy of TSN 2009 NFL Preview magazine.

They predict the Patriots going 13-3 and winning the AFCE, defeating the Titans in the AFCCG, and going to the Super Bowl. I won't ruin this thread by including their SB prediction.

They rated our draft B+.

On a personal note, I got a Fathers Day gift of a set of Patriot logo club head covers, to go along with my Taylor Made Burner Driver. Life is good!

HEY BRO! WHAT UP?

I haven't seen this magazine, but most magazines that are out now predict the Pats to win the super bowl. However, Lindy's has really gone down hill. Their player rankings are really bad and rank the Titans and Broncos as the best secondaries in the NFL. Also, they rank Shawne Merriman as being the best OLB in the NFL over DeMarcus Ware and James Harrison who terrorized opposing QB's last season. Last but not least, they have the Chargers/Titans in the AFCCG and the super bowl is between the Eagles and the Chargers. Don't get me wrong, I'm not mad because they didn't predict the Pats to win the super bowl, I'm more mad about their player and team rankings.

Actually, Tony Brown and Jason Jones both played very well in rotation with Haynesworth and in his place when he was out 2 weeks. If SenDerrick Marks can play up to his potential then the Titans D shouldn't dropoff too much.

Every year people dismiss Tennessee's chances and every year the Titans seem to overachieve. They're a tough team.

I buy all the mags and they are all across the board. I saw one having San Deigo winning. I saw a few having the Pats winning. I saw one have the Eagles winning. I look at these mags as pure entertainment and looking back in January to see how wrong they are.

The one surprise to me it the near universal opinion that the Jets would finish last in the division. I would have thought that they would have all bought into the Jets' defense and Rex Ryan. I guess they realize that the QB position may be their downfall and their defense isn't good enough to make up for it.

And they have the Giants beating us again. It's actually a very good preview mag, well done. It's done with the old Street & Smith guys I believe. I like everthing about it except their prediction. That being said, if we could go 13-3, with THAT difficult schedule and get back to the SB, I'd be thrilled, but would hope for a SB victory.

I will shave my ass if the Titans go to the AFC Championship game.

Broncos best secondary? Really? The Titans is one of the best; Finnegan is one of the most under rated players in football and Michael Griffin has quitely been one of the league's best free safeties and Chris Hope doesn't give up much himself at the strong.

I don't have much of a problem calling Shawne Merriman the best OLB in football. Look at the effect his absence had on the Chargers defense last year? Antonio Cromartie and Shaun Phillip were completely exposed due to his non-existence.

But yeah, that Broncos comment is crazy. I get PFW's season preview every year and really enjoy reading it. They do their work in their player scouting department (although they rate Ronnie Brown as the 21st tailback which is ridiculous.)

I also got Athlons this year which is a pretty good mag in its own regard.
