Antonio Brown

we aren't going to win a shootout with the best offense in the league. Our defense is what will seperate us from them.

If they get ramsey they might be a slight favorite right now over us.

Facts.

BB's answer to questions about whether Antonio Brown would play were a definite tell that he was going to be cut. BB doesn't answer questions the way he did today. It was pretty evident, and I said so.

They had him practice. I'm not sure how many more times I have to post that, before people begin to grasp its significance.

The Patriots had no choice. No way they keep someone who intimidates a woman by putting up pictures of her kids. No way.

& before anyone wants to argue whether he was doing that, consider that not only does the entire media read it that way, but so does a big chunk of Patriots fans. Given those texts, the Patriots had no choice. Can't keep a guy who uses kids to intimidate a woman. YOU CAN'T!

This offense will likely have to run it more. Man we need to hope gordon stays sober the whole year.

This was the chief reason I thought having him was good, to take the heat off Gordon.

Theres got to be more to the story here

He was told not to contact the woman.

And he did, in a threatening way.
What else would be needed?

All he had to do was keep his yap shut - can't do it. he's a Narcissist of the highest order.

My guess is the Pats were just waiting for the league to give them cover on the $9m still owed - I can't see Kraft writing those checks. Forfeiture language in his contract, maybe?

Pretty clear language. Patriots owe him a game check, and not a penny more. How that effects the cap is still TBD.

Nice job, bowing to the media mob....**** you Kraft and your happy endings....

Now we'll see how smart it was to bend the knee to the fake news media once Gordon gets suspended again and your 4th receiver is Matthew Slater

Just like AB, we're letting you go as a Patriot (fan)...

So about that Redskin tackle.....

That decision had been made by the press conference. Clear as day. As I said to Andy when he questioned my post about Belichick, "They are going to cut him today, Andy." I said this as soon as I watched the presser around noon. Clear as day.

agreed.

NYCPATS4LIFE said:

I don’t like AB the person but i hope he beats out these charges. I’m rooting for him when it comes to that.

This offense is gonna look very different now. While not as explosive it will have to depend some in the running game .

Why the hell would you root for this guy in anything? Seriously, you need to get your priorities straight.

Media makes me sick. I hope BB walks out in the middle of every press conference from here on out.

Nobody's actually reading. You know that. This is knee-jerk reaction time.

I'm sure he was told not to contact anyone about anything, except his own lawyers and he just can't follow directions. Fly straight and keep your mouth shut was all that was required. What a moron.

Supposedly still can’t afford him because this didn’t change the cap

I may need someone with more cap knowledge to chime in, but can we even fit him in right now?

I want him so bad though if we can make it work somehow

When I saw the news yesterday about texting the second accuser I was thinking the Pats will announce they cut him.It just couldn’t work with this guy. He can’t stay off social media and he has scandals every day coming out of the woodwork. Will enjoy seeing Gordon get more catches.

LOL OK
