If you think so, you are discrediting anything else you have to say by displaying massive ignorance.

The only thing on your team which is clicking on all cylinders right now is your secondary.

Well people who get paid to scout and review players, said Washingtons Dline was better.... soo take it up with them.

National feel
By Mike Reiss, Globe Staff
Today's game between the Patriots and Redskins is drawing a significant amount of national media attention. The interest is probably tied to the fact that the Patriots visit the Colts next Sunday, and a lot of the reports after the game will look ahead to that game as much as dissecting today's contest.

Here is a look at some of the national media outlets represented here today:


USA Today (2 reporters)

New York Times (2 reporters)

Los Angeles Times

ESPN.com

New York Daily News

NBCsports.com

Yahoo! Sports

ESPN and NBC also have TV crews here.

Yes, it was. That is ridiculous. It's embarrassing for ESPN. The Patriots have the best DL in the NFL. Washington isn't close.

It's in the ESPN Insider evaluation of the game. It's F-ing stupid. Unconvinced visitors? Just watch today. You'll see.

Scouts in house
By Mike Reiss, Globe Staff
As usual, there are advance scouts from NFL teams in attendance for today's game.

The Bills, Colts, Eagles and Jets are scheduled to have scouts watching from the press box here at Gillette Stadium.

The Redskins visit the Jets next week then host the Eagles, while the Patriots travel to face the Colts next week before their off weekend.

Kick the Colts' scouts out of the stadium!!

Geez, so am I to believe that you think you have more understanding of the line than the paid professionals?

our DL hasnt played that great recently..but no way is it worse than Washington's

Seymour + Wilfork + Warren

only so many pro bowl spots..especially when all 3 get considered as "DTs"

I guess so. Either that or it's a typo. It's a LUDICROUS position that the Redskins DL is better than the Patriots front 3 when all three guys are PRO BOWL-level players. I'm sorry. I don't think it takes all that much expertise.

Wilfork - arguably THE best NT in football. If he's not, he's top 2-3.

Warren - the Patriots best DL last season, and having another excellent stretch this year. Consensus should've-been Pro Bowl selection over teammate Richard Seymour, who was voted in.

Seymour - coming back from injury, fresh and, generally speaking, a Hall of Fame DL under 30.

There is NO WAY - no F-ing way, in fact - that your DL is better than the Patriots'. Please counter-argue. I'd love to hear it.
