Patriot’s Offense Will Survive Without Gronk

Published on November 20, 2012, by in NFL, Patriots.

There is no doubt Rob Gronkowski’s broken forearm, which will keep him out four to six weeks, will hurt the Patriot’s offense, but the team will continue to produce without him.  They have too many weapons not too.  Yes, Gronk is a major part of the offense, but other players will step up and produce.

Pats Cut TE Winslow At Request

Published on September 27, 2012, by in NFL, Patriots.

Well that was short-lived. After having signed with the New England Patriots just over a week ago, tight end Kellen Winslow was released by the team per request. Why Winslow decided to leave isn’t being said, but I suspect it’s for one of two reasons: he realized the Pats were going to use him for

Poor Practices, Distractions Plaguing Pats

Published on September 18, 2012, by in NFL, Patriots.

“We’re talking about practice,” former Philadelphia 76ers guard Allen Iverson told the media close to 10 years ago. “Not the game, but practice.” Unlike the self-absorbed Iverson, the New England Patriots seem to feel practice has a significant impact on one’s performance in the game. This has been a consistent approach for the team since

Trouble in New England?

Published on September 18, 2012, by in NFL, Patriots.

; ; ; After the first two games of the Patriots season, they are sitting a 1-1, certainly a disappointment but nothing to get concerned about yet. What does seem to be troubling though, is WR Wes Welker’s diminished role early on this season. He is currently sitting behind Brandon Llyod and Julian Edelman on

Home Opener Filled With Disappointment

Published on September 17, 2012, by in NFL, Patriots.

The Cardinals successfully attacked the Patriots’ central weakness, pressuring Tom Brady, and made things difficult all afternoon for the quarterback and his teammates. Outplayed. Outcoached. Overmatched. Whichever word you want to use to describe it, the Patriots got beat in every facet of the game yesterday against the Arizona Cardinals and lost, 20-18 as a

Hernandez Ready to Take Over

Published on August 23, 2012, by in NFL, Patriots.

Aaron Hernandez seems prepared to “make it rain” on the rest of the NFL. Based on this past season, everyone clearly knows who the best tight-end tandem in football is made up of. The answer is obvious: Rob Gronkowski and Aaron Hernandez. The two combined for 25 total touchdowns and over 2,200 yards receiving. Those

Commend the Pats, Don’t Bash Them

Published on February 8, 2012, by in NFL, Patriots.

Like many Patriots fans, Wes Welker and his teammates felt they could’ve done more to earn a Super Bowl victory Sunday.  Still, they made it farther than many gave them a chance to. C’mon, Patriots fans.  Are we really bad-mouthing our team, one that went 13-3 in the regular season and made the Super Bowl with

Time to Trade Tom Terrific?

Published on February 6, 2012, by in NFL, Patriots.

                      Tom Brady has had an illustrious career as a Patriot, but maybe it is time to move on. This is tough being a life-long Patriots fan and many will call me crazy, but I think it’s time to let go of Tom Brady and look to the

Feeling Good About ’09 Playoff Rematch

Published on January 22, 2012, by in NHL, Patriots.

Ray Rice and the Ravens imposed their physicality on New England the last time they faced off in the playoffs, proving too much for the Pats to handle.  It was one of the most startling playoff losses among the recent string of failures preceding last Saturday’s blowout victory in the AFC Divisional playoffs.  It obviously wasn’t the most, with that

Tebow, Broncos Trumped by Tom Terrific, Pats

Published on January 18, 2012, by in NFL, Patriots.

Tebow was certainly dispirited after the Pats routed the Broncos Saturday night.  He and his teammates couldn’t figure New England on either side of the ball, leaving them all scratching their heads. Saturday’s match-up between Tom Brady and Tim Tebow drew the highest television ratings for an NFL Divisional Round playoff game in 13 years.  Too bad it wasn’t
