I think it’s time we make a change in the backfield, using a little creativity and science. I’ve done the analysis and run the numbers, and I think the issue we have with Sony Michel is not solely his running style nor the changes to the o-line per se, but the combination of the two. When you...
Gostkowski needs to sit a game. He's an aging veteran. A work in progress. I do get it. I'm not done with the guy forever. But Steve Gostkowski had a terrible game Sunday and made a big error that lost us another point, and I'm sure Bill doesn't take that sort of thing lightly, even in a...
If you were worrying about wasting your time, you should never had read this thread to begin with based on the title. My response was specific to the misinformed posters on the thread (and throughout many other comments on this board) who question Woodhead's value to the team and make dubious...
Well, let's look at production. Let's compare Ridley's first two games this year (not much of a sample, but all we got) to Woodhead's stats from 2010 to 2011:
Ridley-- 5.1 yards per carry / 8.0 yards per reception
Woodhead-- 4.9 yards per carry / 10.4 yards per reception
Note...
Can we once and for all discard the notion that Woodhead is not fast enough, is not athletic enough, or gets by on his 'smarts'? Look at the Combine/Pro Day stats for these three guys. And while we're at it, let's lay off Edelman as well:
Height/weight
Woodhead-- 5'7" / 197 lbs
Ridley--...
Maybe we should swap picks with Oakland for Randy Moss... We send them our #28 (660 pts) and our #60 (300 pts) for their 2nd rounder (#33, 580pts). The net is 420 pts, which is the equivalent to a lower half 2nd rounder. We get Moss and don't have to pay for two #1s (in salary), and Al Davis...
We all know how much BB values active roster spots, but I think that even the sight of Harrison on the sidelines would cause some consternation on the parts of the Colts. Of course, he'd need to be able to play at least 60% strength (maybe more). I do think just having him out there in a 3rd and...
I think we have to also consider Belichick's motivation for staying or leaving... As I pointed out in my earlier post, I don't think Kraft would let him go over money unless BB was delusional (into which sometimes many with success and strong egos can slip). If it's about ego, I suspect (I don't...
Well, to be fair to Kasmir, you did say "deep respect and admiration in my heart"-- that sure sounds emotional and a more than pure cold rationality.. Maybe not worship, but perhaps a little fawning (don't get me wrong, I can't separate my emotions either from pure analytics when I think of that...
Re: Rivers, Tomlinson, and Kaeding go to pro bowl; Brady, Gostkowski et al keep playi
Surely, you'd agree that both Felger and Borges will blame BB for ANY losses at this point? I know Felger has promised on his radio show to stop his criticism of the Patriots front office (for this year) now...
I completely agree with Mike the Brit-- It completely absurd to think that Kraft would somehow go cheap in this situation. While Kraft is clearly a fan, my guess is that he's a businessman first. Belichick provides HUGE value to his asset. In fact, the Patriots are worth over $1b...
Re: Rivers, Tomlinson, and Kaeding go to pro bowl; Brady, Gostkowski et al keep playi
I agree completely that Borges is just waiting for a loss and the fall of Belichick; he has the personal vendetta with him (as documented frequently here and on Boston Sportsmedia's site).
I disagree with...
