Why stop at the OL? I want the Pats to have the deepest and best team in football

Agreed, we just need 20 or so W/R's

 

[Huckleberry1]

Give him a year or two

I agree. Vrabel knows that you can't execute if you don't win the fistfight, on both sides of the ball. You have to win the physical battles up front to execute. Vrabel is in this for the long run, and he's going to systematically turn them into a franchise that's contending every season. They are ahead of schedule, but still have plenty of work to do. But the most important piece is in place, and they got the right guy in Drake Maye. He has exactly the character and demeanor you want in your quarterback. He's a leader, and wants to take the responsibilities and accountability that goes with that.

That will never be enough.

I do too, but my response came from the Chargers losing both starting tackles, and how screwed they are going to be without them.

I see you like him now but if he wins 6 SB titles but then doesn't win one without Drake you'll turn on him and hate him. I've seen it before from you.

To be fair, any team who loses their starting tackles who are both pro-bowl caliber by the way, would be screwed.
I don’t care how good your backups are, teams aren’t recovering from that.

Not to worry - I think V. Lowe is still out there free to sign!

Actually, that might not be a terrible idea to see what we could get from the Chargers for Lowe.

4th?
5th?

People forget that for numerous years after Belichick got here, the Pats placed 3-4 OTs on IR EACH YEAR. Granted, the IR rules were different then, but it's still noteworthy.

You mean the guy that's on the Pats 53 man roster?

 

[Hammer of Thor]

Atlanta is cutting Parker Romo after missing the PAT.
Falcons to sign Zane Gonzalez, waive Parker Romo

2 1sts and Ladd McConkey, please.

 

[Since1960]

Phew!!!! We can all breathe a sigh of relief with the trade deadline now behind us… Our Pats still *OWN* the all important 6th Round!!

 

[mayoclinic]

4 Tom Brady's, please.

 

[PatsFan2]

Wow! they didn't give Romo a second chance?? We we owe him one.

 

[n1997y]

4 Tom Brady's, please.

Is a Tom Brady anything like a Tom Collins?

Panthers' Dowdle fined for '2-pump' celebration vs. Packers

Panthers running back Rico Dowdle announced he was fined for his "two-pump" touchdown celebration in Sunday's win over the Packers, with a source telling ESPN the fine was $14,491.

Am I completely mis remembering here, but wasn’t this Diggs TD celebration as well? What a weak ass fine though. Of everything that happens throughout a week of NFL football, this is what gets fined.

Apparently life is imitating art that was imitating life already.

The joke was 2 pumps was allowed but not 3. Apparently herr Goodell has gone with 1 pump ok 2 no good.
