Default The Official Patriots vs Giants game thread

Please post your comments, knee jerk reactions, and insightful observations regarding tonight's Patriots vs Giants pre-season game.

Of special note is that the game is scheduled for 7PM instead of the usual 7:30.

The most important thing about the game tonight is that there are no injuries.

Enjoy the game.

Default ****** Unofficial last exhibition game of the 2012 season game thread ******

The talk is that a lot of the starters, including Brady and Gronkowski, will be sitting this one out. For those looking to get a long look at the bubble guys, this game's apparently going to be perfect for you.

Brady's out running WR routes, making it unlikely that he'll be playing, according to Howe and Reiss

Brady's on the field with a bunch of other guys. He never does that. I doubt he's playing.

Looks like a bunch of starters are on the field early to get some running in, and that might be it for them.

Or he thinks he has a shot of making the roster as a WR

That would solve the mystery as to why Gaffney was cut.....

One of the things for us to look at is how much playing time Hoyer gets. As I mentioned, if he gets at least 3 quarters, then I will wager that the Patriots are trying to trade him.

I also hope we get an extended look at Demps returning the ball, not Arrington, McCourty, or God forbid, Hernandez.

Expect to see Vollmer start at right tackle, Koppen get last, best shot at center to start as well.
