I’d like to know what you think.
Should the Patroits err on the side of safety, particularly with their quarterback, Tommy Brady, or should they go with the “60 minutes” motto they’ve been professing lately?
To be honest, I can’t figure out Bill Belichick’s intentions. Just when I believe I have him somewhat figured out, he goes in the other direction.
I am withholding my thoughts for a while, but I’d be interested in yours.
Do you think … continued »

Let’s get right to them:
1. The New England Patriots can run the ball.
It was a lingering question. And while it was against the Jets (30th in NFL, allowing 141 yards per game), because of the weather the Jets knew it was coming and couldn’t shut it down. It wasn’t a great day running the football, but considering the conditions it was a good one (135 yards). The Patriots controlled the game, like the old days, … continued »

Stephen Neal, G
Billy Yates, G
Troy Brown, WR (third straight game as an inactive)
Jets
Chris Davis, WB

Eagle-Tribune’s Hector Longo has an interesting story that didn’t make all papers about the Pats-Jets game.
Check it out here:
Patriots should do the right thing and lose today
FOXBORO | Patriots fans crave blood today.
They want Eric Mangini’s Jets to pay and pay dearly for implicating this team in “videogate.”
I say Bill Belichick and his players should do the best thing for this franchise. Put their egos in check for one day and tank.
Give the … continued »

I just arrived at Gillette Stadium and a few things stick out:
1. Traffic was bad, but not as bad as I thought it would be.
The reason is the farther south, the less snow. We (Hector Longo and myself) left the Merrimack Valley about 8:45 a.m. and pulled into the lot just after 11 a.m. The worst part was in the Valley and following the plows. It slowed the trip down by at least 30 … continued »
