Flowers will see a lot of time in the rotation. Especially with Ninkovich hurting currently. I feel confident in saying that the plan was to move Ninkovich to MLB slowly as the year progressed with the primary 3 or 4 being Long, McClellin, and Sheard.
Remember that Sheard is dinged up right now as well. So I won't be surprised to see Flowers get a ton of snaps early on.
Is Sheard dinged up I haven't heard anything bout him except him being out of practice all week. I thought maybe he came down with a bug of some sort but im only speculating.
I too miss his worm burners. And, the no-touch bullets bouncing off the hands of wide eyed receivers on 3yd curl routes.
He will be missed...

Hey, did we even end up getting any pick for him from the Texans? Or did them cutting him screw us of the conditional 7th too? Cant find it on Google anywhere.
I'm more happy for the depth! For any strong Championship run I think quality depth is more important than exotic 3TE formations in the red zone, tho less fun for sure...
Hard to say. Pats rushed 4, grissom got a decent rush, forcing bears qb out of the pocket, he rolled right buying a second or two and hit the wr with a very accurate throw. LeBlanc and Biggers were in the area. Without the camera angle to see the secondary tough to say what happened back there
Thanks guys! Yeah, after seeing the play I agree that its a tough call. I've always hated allowing garbage scores since I am programmed to believe you play a full 60 minutes.
Oh, and this quote: "Play to win, don't play what your score is"
Comments like this from people are just laughable.. You want to be taken seriously but make comments like this when the team is playing a vanilla defense??
You're laughable! Ive seen it all with my own eyes. If you read my other post. I watch every game (not just the patriots) on a weekly basis, in All 22 film. I stand by what I say, and until you do the same, I suggest you stop trying to be MR.know it all, like you always try to play one here. Im not the only one who feels/sees that he has slightly regressed in his job duties since the 2014 season. PFF also agrees.
I'm starting to wonder about Knighton's roster status; I didn't really key in on him, but a couple times I noticed him standing straight up and being pushed back off the line.
Looks like Belichick and Brady just wanted to throw Jimmy Garoppolo a curveball just before game time to see how he'd respond. (Thumbs up for Garoppolo.)
Goodell probably borrowed Jeffrey Pash's cell phone to get Ted Wells up to Gillette to secure the locker room and bring the scissors, Brady's cleats and the contents of the trainer's room trash can to NFL HQ.
Now I fully realize that it's only one game, but Anthony Johnson was disruptive. He made a strong play or two with the ones.
Love the story about him showing up for his Pats workout at a much lighter weight and BB wondering if it's the right guy. He seems hungry that's for sure.
Kind of getting excited about Anthony Johnson. If he can come close to that level in the regular season he's gonna be our best pickup of this offseason in terms of surprise value.
Why trade Ryan now I really don't get it. Lets say we trade Ryan for a 3rd or 4th round pick and don't end up re-signing Butler? Do you guys really miss the Duane Starks and Ellis Hobbs days? Lets enjoy having two solid corners in a pass happy league.
