Re: Inactives?

Watson and Brady resting up for the playoffs.

Troy's first game of the season at Gillette... and possibly the last of his career?

Re: Troy Brown Active!

It'll be a pleasure to see #80 back in uniform.

Re: Troy Brown Active!

As I said in the other thread...

Hell I'd be happy with Troy just getting a catch.

I want him to have some numbers within this magical season, then I could officially feel at peace that he was able to be apart of it.

Just one catch would make me thrilled. A TD, thus getting that player TD record and I'll be screaming like a 12 year old hitting puberty.

So we have a guy who was unemployed just two weeks ago starting at tight end for Patriots. Merry Xmas, buddy.

I'm sensing that we will be seeing O'Callaghan or one of the other linemen playing TE, either that or we are going to see a lot of four wide sets. Record time!

 

[SVN]

i think it will be another of those scratch and claw kinda division games as much as everyone expects a blowout.

 

[Patriotic]

O'Callaghan should see some action at TE.

It hurts that we don't have a speedy TE to send down the seam. Screws up the offense.

thats Belichicks definition of resting his starters. If your hurt..we wont use you in meaningless games.

 

[tedylb]

Maybe Troy or Vrabel can do some TE today. Troy's done everything else! And Vrabes has better hands than Ben!

I don't think the dolphins could make it close if their lives depended on it.

Vrabel has better hands than anyone on this team. He has 0 drops..on offense

Moss/Welker/Stallworth/Gaffney/Watson/Brady/Maroney/Faulk cant say that

 

[NEPatriot]

I want to know what pats can do with 6 wide receivers today.
