The Patriots are going to crush the Giants into little blobs of undifferentiated goo. I'm sorry, Giants fans, there is no Santa, there is no Easter Bunny, and this game is going to end with lots of talk of "greatest ever."

The play that bothers me is the pass to Troy on 3rd down that was broken up, giving the Colts their last TD drive. Brown was supposed to adjust that route to an out-cut, and it would have been wide-freaking open. That would've been the first down, and most likely the game. Then the Pats would've...

Seriously? Damn, people, get over yourselves. It's just football. I think the Patriots are gonna crush the Giants. They are in far too good a mood. I think the pressure of the perfect season was actually wearing on them a bit, but now they see the light at the end of the tunnel. One game, and...

Funny thing on that play ... look at the Jag Neal is blocking. The guy fights down the line and gets all the way to Faulk before he realizes he doesn't have the ball. Then he just sorta looks stupidly at Brady. Fun stuff.

Pats=about 70 Bears=pretty close to 0 The Pats would be much bigger, much faster, and they'd spread out the field on offense and chew up the 46 D. Really, just about any team in today's NFL would crush the 85-86 Bears. Too much size and speed, and better tactics.

The Jags don't have a very deep secondary, and they can't play from behind because they have no receivers. That's a lethal combination against the Patriots. This game is such a classic case of pundits talking themselves into a bad conclusion. I think the Jags are going to get beat pretty...

No way. The Raiders were soft, soft, soft against the run that year, and if the Pats could've gotten any push for the running game, they would've blown them out. They would've just beaten them up and down the field, imo. The Raiders had decent short passing game, which was the only type of...

The Pats of 2001 were a once-a-blue-moon happening. And the two teams people have talked about (Raiders and Rams) from that year were soft. Upsets generally happen, imo, when the underdog is a physical group and the overdog is a soft group. That's not the case in this matchup. The Jags are...

Randy Moss, Coach-Maker.

Am I the only fan who doesn't really care about this debate? It's a question that can never be solved, and it's probably basically a tie, anyway. They're both great quarterbacks, neither is clearly better than the other, imo. Football's too much of a team sport to tease out who's better in a...

Actually that was Leahy and Specter that threatened the anti-trust exemption, but don't let facts stand in your way.

Look, the NFL (like all sports leagues) wants the best of both worlds: they want to be treated like a community resource when it comes to building new stadiums, anti-trust exemptions, etc ... but then they want to be free of the influence of the public on decisions like this. Wrong, boys...

I despise the Ravens ... woohoo!

That's too bad because this charity (and work pushing the NFL and NFLPA to pony up for former players) is really needed.

I watched a bit of the Colts-Ravens, um, game last night, and the Ravens just looked putrid. Spent, wasted, used up. I thought that playing the Patriots, putting so much on the field, that probably wears down a team. So then I decided to take a look at the results of teams the week after playing...

I dunno, but I will seriously name my next child "Belichick" if he names Hanson as one of his inactives. Going into a game without a punter ... Tell me that wouldn't be the greatest moment in sports history. Yeah, yeah, I know it'll never happen ... but a man can dream.

The thing I really don't understand ... I've watched a few Celtics games this year when they're tossing up threes up by 50 in the third quarter. And you know what? No one's talking about how classless they are for doing it. Everyone's talking about how much the Knicks (or Nuggets, or whoever)...

OK, now that I made my snarky point about running up the score ... it's sorta stupid to compare across sports, but the 1927 Yankees actually have some similarities to the Patriots. They had two of the greatest offensive players ever having career years - Ruth and Gehrig both had an OPS over...

Here's what the Senators' first baseman said about the 1927 Yankees after losing to them 21-1, The 1927 Yankees obviously had no class and ran up the score.

The OL with Hannah, Leon Gray, etc was far better than today's unit. No offense to today's unit, who make up a very good line, but that 1976 Patriots OL was an absolute beast. To illustrate: in a preseason game, Chuck Fairbanks told the OL that he was going to keep calling the same play - a...
