If the Pats are 15-0 with home field locked up, should Brady sit it out?

I doubt there's anything BB could do to make Brady sit out Wk 17 if we are 15-0, probably the only decision that BB wouldn't have control over, feel like the players would revolt if told otherwise and I doubt BB would want to mail it in at 15-0/14-0.

Not sure if Slater’s been doing this for a while now, but I love this.

And the problem is that one more player on the IR list means one of the three (Harry, Wynn, said third player) can't play in the the season again.

If someone we want back in 8 weeks is injured, he will be carried on the 53 man roster, and will be inactive for 8 weeks (or whatever number).

Kevin Faulk says hi

This is a wild stat (he’ll probably fumble next game now)



Best third down/utility back we’ve ever had.

No disrespect to Faulk (Well deserved Pats hall of famer) but, White is better. Less fumbles, more durable, Faulk never had a game like White did in 51 where he was arguably the MVP or very close to it.

Granted the league has changed so White will have better stats but, I think while White isn’t as good of a runner (and he’s improving), he’s got Faulk beat.

Faulk was a fumbling machine early in his career and the fumble in the 2005 AFCDG vs the Bronocos was a killer. But other than that he was arguably the most clutch Pats player ever. Or at least one of (to hedge my bets).

Love White. LOVED Faulk.

Faulk is also in the hall of cool, if I’m not mistaken.

Why the hell is he not at home, resting? The idiot is just prolonging his recovery. (I hope someone wiped off the microphone when he was done.)

He might want to sanitize those pubes on his face, too.

Case in point -- some guys just should not force facial hair.

You can’t beat the bills at home. Worry about competing with the dolphins and let real teams worry about the division

That Develin neck deal ain’t great. Necks are important IME and he has a huge one.

What neck? He doesn't have one.

I hope we win.

I expect a lot of bodies in the box. Normally, I would say that I wouldn't be surprised if we showed more zone looks in this game. Cover-3 Buzz, etc. Not with this defense. This secondary and this coaching staff enjoy going man to man and squeezing the life out of you. With Falk, choke off the routes between the numbers and force him to throw outside. His arm is weak. Should open a lot of opportunities for INTs. Cover-1 Robber feels about right as a coverage against this team.
