Our defense this year is our offense. The strategy appears to be, just score on pretty much every possession, and we'll win the game. God bless Tom Brady, because I think we're the only team in the league who can actually consider having a Defense to be optional.

Brady with that, "That's great, but I wonder if I'm ever going to get back on the field today?" expression.

Loved Eric Crocker's take-- Tom Brady at his Postgame Presser: “I don’t know if we punted tonight [against the league's #1 defense] but I still think we could’ve played better." Fans of every other NFL Team:

I'm a lesbian, and I can't stand her voice in this context, either. Football games should be announced by a gruff, old, gravel-voiced guy, like Mike Ditka or John Madden. Worse, when they try to introduce women announcers into sports, they always get women whose voices are ambiguously male...

I get the feeling this is the case as well.

Agreed. Typical injuries are one thing, but when you get into back issues, that's something else entirely, and he's already had two or three back/spine surgeries.

"To be party or not to be party. That is the question."

Yes, but why not "cap" the cap, and keep the revenues? I get that the teams are in competition with each other, but they're also parts of a single corporate entity which has no peers in market. McDonald's franchisees are also in competition with each other, but that doesn't stop the governing...

I can see how the quarterback would always be the highest paid, but I mean, why does the ceiling of what "highest" is keep rising, in a insular league that can cap the maximum it'll pay for services, particularly when that league has no competitors. In other words, why wouldn't the league...

Just out of curiosity, can anyone explain why these contracts for elite quarterbacks keep going up? It's not as if there's another league that would pay more; the NFL is the only game in town for these athletes' skillset, so it's not as if there's outside competition for their services.

"Tom Brady's Backup" should be a position and career title in and of itself, like "Running Back". It's obscene the amount of money teams will throw at unproven guys who have that Brady-proximity-perfume on them, as if Tom's greatness can be achieved by nearness to him somehow. Matt Cassel...

Look what Matt Patricia looks like after you shear him.

I hear you; we Pats fans are not used to weirdness and drama. That's for the other teams. We're not equipped for it as a fan base. All we can do at this point is pray we get through Day Four of the offseason without another round of upheaval and anxiety.

o_O ... ... Has this not been the weirdest season ever? "Damn, first Bill sabotages us and now The Rock?; at least Kraft and Josh screwed the Colts good." is not a sentence I would have ever foreseen myself typing a week ago.
