Patriots notebook: Malcolm Butler battling through illness
It was a really bizarre situation considering that he showed up for practice, was seen leaving the practice field, and then never practiced again. Obviously it turned into a pretty big deal. It's good to hear that they're not giving up...

We've already heard just about everything that could possibly come out of the Browns' HC search, so this shouldn't be terribly surprising. He supposedly pulled his name out when he learned he wasn't the #1 choice, so it makes sense...
Sorry, Belichick. You now have the second best cooking segment of current Pats.
Smoothie Tyme with Julian Edelman - YouTube
Well, we know how Edelman spent his bye week! I'm a fan, if you can't tell.
Now that Edelman has reach the (somewhat arbitrary) 75 returns to qualify for this list, he is now atop the career punt return average list with a 13.0 average. This list is not updated yet, but it gives you an idea of where he fits in:

After at least four college concussions, Swope wasn't even cleared to take part in non-contact practices, and with training camp starting tomorrow, it seems that either he or the Cardinals just decided it wasn't worth it. I'm glad...
I don't know how common of knowledge this is, but the ESPN forums are shutting down on the 17th, and that's causing tons of ESPN posters to head to other forums. There are already some ESPNers here, and there are going to be more over the next two weeks. The problem is that the ESPN forums suck...

Makes sense, with the Pats looking to a likely starting duo of Amendola and Sanders. There was talk of him taking a pay cut, but that apparently did not work out. He had a $3M bonus due today at 4.

There's the tidbit that we never knew that pushed things into the Pats' favor. I always thought it was pretty iffy, but it makes a lot of sense now.
Edited to reflect other meaning of ambiguous tweet.
Tight End or Wide Receiver? - Offseason Low Down - Rotoworld.com
Great article that used PFF's numbers (at least these are hard to screw up) and put together the percentages that some tight ends spent at each position. The Pats' two are listed below and will probably surprise a lot of people...
I'm having two probably that I suspect might be related...
1. I can't edit my posts. When I click the edit button, I get but the editing box never comes up.
2. I can't view the posts of people who I have on ignore. The link to make those posts show up just doesn't do anything.

I didn't want the title to be obnoxiously long, but something like "Rumor from anonymous Twitterer that claims to have worked in NFL:" would have more accurately described this. Take it for what it's worth.
There's this guy on Twitter under the name NFLosophy. His description says that he is a...
As you can see there and probably noticed during the game, Vollmer was out wide to the left on the first field goal, and he sort of ran some kind of route. It was 4th and 13, so they definitely weren't passing to him. Are they setting up for a fake sometime later, or is Belichick just screwing...

I know there was a lot of whining when the Dolphins signed him. Do people still want him back? If the Pats don't want him now, then they probably never will.
He had 4 receptions for 68 yards before hurting his knee. He also had at least...

Sometimes, even more money won't get it done. Can we stop blaming Belichick for being cheap, now?

Patriots sign two; Veteran G Robert Gallery retires
Can't really say that this breaks my heart. Didn't have him on my roster anyway. They also signed two guys I've never heard of and put Fiammetta on the left squad list.
Mac's Football Blog: Patriots Free Up $7.2M In Cap Space By Restructuring Tom Brady's Contract
I totally predicted this this:cool:
Anyway, there's really no downside to this because any cap room they have left after this season can be added on to next year's cap, so this simply gives them the...
