Reason #18373 why you're posting here and not repping NFL players.

This is good for the Pats. Sets some parameters for a future Hightower contract without having to extend an offer themselves.

Belichick defenses always get better as the season goes on. Not concerned, as long as we're winning games.

Unsure why everyone is so upset about this. It's not our money. They can afford his cap hit this year. His deal won't prohibit other, future deals. The Patriots obviously see something they think they can work with. He'll have a role next year, and I'll bet he does just fine.

Now that James White has "emerged" a bit, I'd really like to see two back sets with him and Dion Lewis next year.

Hindsight is 20/20. Obviously in retrospect the FG was the smart play. At the time, I didn't mind going for it in those situations. There was no guarantee our offense was going to get down there again with the way the OL was playing.

Akiem Hicks likely priced himself out of the Patriots price range with his play this past season.

You're right. This team won't win in the playoffs. Thankfully, this isn't the team we'll see in two weeks.

Just putting stuff on tape with the playoffs in mind. Giving opposing DCs something else they have to be prepared for.

...what?

I don't know what everyone is expecting on offense. No viable receivers, decimated oline. Just get out of the game without further injuries, if possible.

Yeah! No one offer an opinion contrary to that of the forum collective!

You are delusional. This is just like your, "Kyle Arrington isn't a cornerback" argument, NEM.

They're flawed? Okay, well since you've watched every defensive snap McCourty played last year, what are the numbers you've come up with? Where is your breakdown of the year he had? How many yards were allowed against him? What was the quarterback rating? The numbers are made up? So they...

Well, only two cornerbacks in the entire NFL allowed 1000 yards receiving last year. Devin McCourty was one of them. Most people think he had a bad year. He was moved to safety late in the year. It's really neat that you want to defend him, but numbers don't lie. Oh boy. Here's where you imply...

Yes. Over a 16 game season, that'd come out to be 960 yards of offense allowed against that defensive back. Last year, that would have been the third worst season by a cornerback based on that measurement. He was actually slightly worse than that with 1004 yards allowed, good for second worst in...

Wow. So this is where NEM turned up? You never fail to bash Arrington, NEM, even when you've been proven wrong.

No worries, Grizz. =) I wasn't offended, I just wanted to point out that it does happen and is probably a lot more common than you think.

I don't want to get into a debate about the merits of prescribing medications to treat psychological conditions. I will say that using quotation marks around the term conditions is extremely disrespectful, as it implies they aren't real or worthy of treatment. I guess everyone's got an opinion...
