NO doubt the exaggeration here is too severe for me but I agree that the offense is far too out of synch. Where is our vaunted two minute offense which let's...
I'm with David not George in that we played with the AFC teams including the Colts...outplayed them for most of the game and so I do not for a moment think the...
This point bothers me the most about our OC and system. One of Brady's strengths has been reading the defense, making adjustments and getting the right play...
Time management is a problem. Also, was it just me ... or did it seem that Brees was just nailing every single long pass, and Brady couldn't hit one for the...
Good post Steve. We certainly got plenty of answers exactly as you suggest and without any question from me there has to be sigificant coaching/preparation...
To be fair Brady would have hit on a few long pass attempts but blatant PI cancelled them out. The one that comes to mind most was at the end of the 2nd...

Charlie might have put in a head-scratcher play in most games he OC'd but he generally had a nice big 'W' to go with it so I would love the chance to...
Ok, while I don't know if it is just me or not but I did see some positive things last night. However, there was a lot of negative to go along with that. ...
Ok... so a rambled a lot in those thoughts.  But hopefully everyone gets what I was trying to say.  Chris  Pats Fan... and plans on supporting them no...
Well, the 2001 Patriots looked rather 6-5 after a convincing win over the Saints as they bounced back from giving up 401 yards passing to the St. Louis...
I agree with Chris on most of his points. The O line was horrific, they made more holes for the ticed Saints' D line than they did for our RBs. One thing I...
The Good - I usually don't start this way but, the Saints are that good boys and girls. They have a scary good offence and their blitzing D is better than...
The only thing that makes me not feel so bad about this game/team is the history of the teams that won the SuperBowls. They did not always have the best...
This is a version of the basketball theory, let Wilt score, stop the other four guys. So, applied to football, you play good sound defense, and you don't worry...
Randy, I'm not convinced either that a championship is out of reach. Lest we forget in 2001 the Rams smucked the Pats in the regular season, but the Superbowl...
Well the Wildcat lost it's teeth considerably when the shark bit Ronnie Brown. I'm sorry for his injury and think it significantly changed the challenge of...
Thanks for mentioning those short pass routes, Don. I forgot to discuss that in my criticisms of the OC. At least 3 times that I can recall, our "short" or...
I'm in complete agreement in the frustration of running a three yard route when the play needs 5 for a first down. I assume that some of these routes are not...
I say that Christmas is supposed to be "merry"; and this definitely made me laugh! George Subject: FW: "Best Decorated House" Some people just have no sense of...
I'm aware that it was an error on George's part to send this to the list and I have communicated with him off list. This list is for Patriots related content...
Relevant part: “Once removed for the duration of a practice or game, the player should not be considered for return-to-football activities until he is fully ...
In their justifiable urgency to get something done on this, I think they missed something on the "front end" of the concussion issue. The rule I would add is...
George hit the nail on the head with this message! Headhunting is dangerous in any sport, and to take this idea a step further, the offender should also be...
I know that with the Patriots, Belichick seems to like a rotation going with the linebackers. I know he's also seeing stuff on game film and in practices that...
This could be a tough one. The Pats traditionally struggle in Miami. The Dolphins are desperate. The wild card scene is crowded, and if they lose tomorrow,...
HEY!!! Has anyone missed me...the SoCal Pats fan? Had a huge computer meltdown and then the emails wouldn't post. I could see the messages but couldn't send a...
Scott is right in this assessment. The Dolphins can be a very formidable opponent. On the other hand, a resounding victory in Miami would do a lot to take...
