Re: TBC Cut??

Holy Crap...

It has to be creating roster space for someone.. now this is a real head-scratcher...

I'm at a loss..

Possibly clearing space for one of LeVoir/Tate? Not sure if that's possible or plausible, just throwing it out there.

When is the trade deadline -- what time of day?

Re: TBC Cut??

WTF ? From what it looks, he was doing very much ok ! It doesn't make sense unless another LB joins the group, Who might that be ?

That would be lame... but still something they would do.

5pm Eastern I think.

<< Bill has been MUCH more aggressive without Pioli >>

Bill has got to be pissed at the pathetic lack of pressure we've been getting in a pass-heavy must-harass-the-QB league. Nice to see something in the works!

Some kind of trade in the works by tomorrow for a OLB for a guy to replace Tully?

Weird... He is being interviewed in Sirius Radio.... Caught by surprise...

Re: TBC Cut??

The NE Patriots are probably the weirdest organisation in pro sports history. Not all in a bad way - in fact 99% in an awesome way.

They clearly don't give a rat's *** about what anyone thinks, anyone says... they care about making their team better - sometimes in the strangest imaginable ways.

I liked TBC. I am perplexed with the move. But... it's all good. They won HUGE without AD, they've won with street dudes starting at corner... enjoy the ride.

Re: TBC Cut??

Banta-Cain was playing great for us. Something has to be going down, could we be seeing a trade for an OLB on the horizon? There has to be. Why else would you cut an OLB that has played well for you after a game which just saw Adalius Thomas deactivated? I don't know about the numbers, but imagine Merriman was on his way? LOL wow that would be awesome. Bill has been MUCH more aggressive without Pioli.

Whoa ! that would be huge !!

At this point all I hope is that BB writes a tell-all book long after he retires.

Reiss: "My general feeling on Banta-Cain: Wouldn't be surprised if he's back ... sooner rather than later."

His snaps yesterday were 28/49. Not like he wasn't doing anything out there...

re: TBC's contract terminated (merged)

The weirdest part of all --- AD doesn't play, TBC gets cut ---

AND BURGESS KEEPS GETTING SNAPS !!!

I have to say, it's more than intriguing. I love it.

Re: TBC Cut??

BBsaid on weei that he would surprised if the pats were involved in a trade...

re: TBC's contract terminated (merged)

Typical Pats head scracthing move. We're good for about five of these each year. Hopefully, this means that we're getting a huge upgrade at OLB, but likely we won't.

Re: TBC Cut??

So what's the deal? The Raiders need another LB?

Any information if this was a personal-conduct issue?

Just thinking out loud, because he was playing prett6y well, at least as far as I could see. Man.... what's going on in Patriots Nation?

Reiss: "My general feeling on Banta-Cain: Wouldn't be surprised if he's back ... sooner rather than later."

thats probably a sane observation . Reiss understands that pats do this all the time so maybe he will be back.maybe pats want to sign another RB or activate tate or someone to the roster.
