Belichick Wins AP Coach of the Year

First off, congrats to Belichick.  This was a really hard award for him to win, considering the video tape incident, and the media bashing that followed.  The entire year, Belichick coached with an intensity that had never been previously seen.  He picked apart teams, and found ways to win every game.  And when he was [...]

Rumor: Bethel Johnson to Return?

Yesterday, the Patriots hosted free agent wide receiver Bethel Johnson for a visit.  As you probably remember, Johnson was our second round pick in 2003.  Despite his blazing speed and return abilities, Johnson was never able to catch on in New England, getting traded for Jonathan Sullivan last season.
 My guess is that the Patriots are [...]

Undefeated!

The Patriots are 16-0!  We’ve been saying it all along, Pats fans before the season, and NFL fans after week one (before the videotaping incident). I usually don’t do recaps, but I thought I’d try it out: I think the big reason why the Giants surprised the Patriots last night is because the Patriots weren’t expecting an [...]

Undefeated Will Come With a Price

The Patriots are one week away from a perfect regular season.  They have the oppurtunity to be the first team to go a full 16-0.  What will that mean for the franchise?
For Patriots fans, it’s something that will never be forgotten, because it will likely never be repeated.  To us, the season is unblemished, perfect [...]

Chad Brown Released

Nothing much to say, except that I feel bad for the guy.  The Patriots may be looking to fill the opening with a running back, since Eckel went down last week.

Game 16 To Be Simulcasted on 3 Networks

In response to the many complaining fans across the country, the NFL has agreed to allow the Patriots v. Giants games to be broadcasted on NBC, CBS, and the NFL Network.  Prior to the announcement, the game would have only been available to 40% of households, now it is available to every household.
 Hopefully, this will [...]

8 Players Selected to Pro Bowl

Not what I wanted to see, but what can I say?  The following eight players were selected to the Pro Bowl:
Tom Brady, Dan Koppen, Matt Light, Logan Mankins, Randy Moss, Asante Samuel, Mike Vrabel and Vince Wilfork.
Of those on the list, I am especially glad to see Mike Vrabel, as well as Logan Mankins, Vince [...]

Pats Take Care of Business, Clinch 1st Seed

Another game, another win.  Overall, it was the Patriot’s poorest offensive performance of the year, which may have been due to the horrible weather (and it didn’t even snow!).  Defensively, it was the team’s best game of the year, with a particularly good game from Richard Seymour, who looked to be back in his old [...]

Rumor: Patriots Looking to Draft Darren McFadden?

The Boston Herald reports:
The Patriots would normally be stuck for the longterm in a situation like this, but the 2008 draft brings a fascinating wrinkle that could actually knock Maroney down the depth chart, if not hasten his departure from New England altogether.
His name is Darren McFadden.
The Arkansas junior and Heisman Trophy finalist is expected [...]

Rumor: Bobby Hamilton to Return to Patriots?

Today, the New England Patriots hosted veteran defensive end Bobby Hamilton at Gillette Stadium.  Hamilton, who won two Superbowls with the Patriots, most recently played with the Jets, and visited the team earlier this season.
I would be really excited to see Bobby Hamilton return again, as he was one of my favorite players until he [...]
