He's been playing well. Did not pull off the long-shot comebacks in weeks one or two, but not necessarily al his fault. He was the best quarterback on the field tonight (low, bar, but still). He made some big plays. But late in the game with the lead, they could not get a first down to seal the...
Yeah, yeah, the cupboards are bare. The shooting stars have been few and far between. It seems like there is always a talent deficit....
The most successful GM in the history of the NFL is Bill Belichick. Full stop. He has predicated his roster building philosophy, as a good GM does, around the...
On one hand, it is a definite plus for a team that traditionally gets stronger late in the year to have an undeniably easy early schedule. (Someone WILL deny it, but let's save that for another discussion) As a fan who wants them to ultimately succeed, this is a huge plus.

Were there perfect parity in the league, each team would win the Super Bowl once every 32 years, be in it once every 16 years, and in the conference championship once every 8 years.
Years from now, in the rear view mirror, this year will be one of the what ifs. Something we feel bad about today...
I'll start by saying I've seen that same kind of play result in a call and in a non-call, and there were not a ton of penalties called against either team. Taken alone, not a horrendous call.
That said - I have been beating this drum for weeks: It is not how many penalties get called that make...
....as if there could still be one.
It is easy to accept that TB is picky, perhaps to the point of obsession or superstition about how he likes footballs. Routine, consistency, and endless repetition contribute to his precision. To the point of having the balls doctored?
Then why would he want...
