Anyone who believes special teams wins superbowls just as much as the next phase of the game.

Not as much as the other phases. Not by a long shot.

We have two superbowls because of special teams

Lost 2 and almost another because of bad special teams.

But hey, each their own.

“How do we feel about Slater getting extended?!”

“Aaawwwwwwwwww yeah!!!”

That is good

Awesome playier leader and temmate

Resign Dorsett and were looking sharp.

That's not happening he made the comment last time he hit free agency he knew what he wanted but now he has a more open mind.

Yes but in the gunner role it's he and Tasker.

This is great news. Hall of Famer...

When we signed Lenzy Pipkins, that gave me hope! I mean, how could it get any better? Right?

Now, with Matthew Slater back in the fold, I'm ready to call it. Super Bowl!

It's always been easy for me to keep track of his age because he was born exactly 10 years before me to the day. I can confidently say that makes him old.

Was Slater given:

1) control over special teams roster
2) a say in the ST play calling

Asking for an interested party who is off on vacation with family, chef, yogi, herbalist, glute massager, sisters, and Jimmy G’s agent

Patriots Hall of Fame for sure. Might be NFL Hall of Fame the way it’s trending.
