I would like to see the Pats bring in Randy Moss to help with Mitchell's off season training. I think Mitchell has the "sneaky fast" speed that helped make Moss great.
Re: Zach Sudfeld, how good can he be for us?
This the $64,000 question isn't it? Not just the tight end situation; it's the loss/change of the entire receiving group. Do I hope someone like Sudfield miraculously appears and can fill Hernandez' shoes? You bet. Do I hope Amendola can...
I would like Ian to move (and preferably bury) all these Hernandez discussions to the non-football thread section of the website. The guy is no longer a New England Patriot. He is no longer a professional football player. The sooner he is gone from our collective conscious, the better...
Since this thread has a lot of comments about the Schaefer Stadium, Buffalo and the "old" days, why don't we all take a moment to thank Bob Kraft for changing professional football in New England.
Here we are, once again, rooting (put in whatever word best describes your mood at the moment)...
Much as I would have loved to have seen a bunch of long runs, I actually thought the backs did a good job last night. What I saw was the backs being hit in the backfield or at the line of scrimmage and still gaining 2 - 3 yards, with 500 - 600 pounds of Philly Eagles on their back. Yeah, I'd...
Great comment and spot on. Can anyone say Buffalo Bills?
The first SB win was SO Great. Red Sox were losers. Celtics were pathetic, their glory days were long gone. The Jacobs brothers were showing everyone how not to run a team. And let's just say we Pats fans were not being...
Just my two-cents worth.
1. I suspect we will see an offense with extraordinary emphasis on protecting Tom Brady. This will mean less QB sneaks, continued and maybe even more sets that hold an additional player on the line or backfield to pick up blitzers, etc; and some additional run plays...
Greg Childs - Arkansas
Here's a link to video interview with Greg Childs after his pro-day performance.
Interesting. He comes off like a really nice kid; interviews similar to D Branch. Good stuff.

I've been waiting for this thread for awhile... and it's a good one that hopefully will lead to additional threads where we "fans" postulate our possible solutions to the present team inadequacies. I for one would like to see this team get some cornerbacks that actually turn their heads around...
We all obviously hope that Hernandez's injury is minor. But if the Pats sit him for a week or two maybe we will the new law firm of Gronkowski, Gronkowski (Senior Partners) and Solder (Junior Partner). This would be a firm dedicated to down and dirty smashmouth play. Might be fun to see.
How about a "Free Taser Give-A-Way Day" at Gillette when the Jets come to town. See a Jet Fan - Zap the Bas*ard.
All in good fun of course. Anybody who lights up Ryan gets bonus points.
Looks to me like season ticket holders / local fans are getting the shaft in the deal. It's manageable to schedule (read as sneak in) an extra three day weekend to cover a Monday night game, but THURSDAY ?!?! One more move that shows the local fan doesn't count for much.
I remember the first time I went to an NFL game. It was in Anaheim and the Rams were playing the Dallas Cowboys. I was way the hell up in boonies looking down onto this little field with players the size of ants. But you could see Tom Landry and his hat from a mile away. One of my strongest...
I'm surprised that few fans are commenting on the Lee Smith pick. I think he will could well be the big surprise of the draft. It looks to me that BB made the decision to rebuild the offensive line with big ole boys and get some additional running back talent so that the Pats add a "cram it...
Notice from League Office
This entire thread is a violation of the court order.
Commissar Goodell will be calling Foxboro to inform Patsfans.com that you have been fined $5, and will lose the right to comment on a #1, #2, and #7 round pick in the 2012 draft. This is being done to ensure...
I have a suggestion that might irritate the crap out of Jets trolls while being an interesting exercise for us - let's come up with a BB-type standard answer that we all use when a troll spouts their usual nonsense. Dismissive but with a little humor. A Patsfans message board standard...
All of these comments are fun, but I can't wait for the "talking heads" to enter the party. Kiper and McShay are going to go nuts because they realize that the Pats have the fire power to essentially control the draft (and totally screw up their mock drafts). The pats can trade up to "get...
I wish I could afford the "Red Seats", but yeah I prefer a good Cab with my BBQ.
My reference to Roman Gladiator was a reference to "thumbs down" fans that think concussions, compound fractures, and paralysis are good and "just part of the game, so deal with it". We can hide our heads in the...
