New England pounds yet another NFL dreg. How did New York ever beat this team back in September? 21-0 early in the second, and it has the makings of ugliness.

Jets and Pats, just under way. No Stephen Neal, or Matt Light, no Jarvis Green, Sammy Morris or Fred Taylor. Pats on the march in their second possession.
It’s probably time to put this Bill Belichick Moment to bed, so I’ll give it a try here. After speaking to several local football coaches, I found that two of them made a similar call — leading a game, deep in their own territory, fourth and short. Both of them made it and won their [...]
Las Vegas oddsmakers opened the season with the Patriots as the favorites to win the Super Bowl. Well, the Patriots have something to prove this weekend if they want to get back in good stead with the gamblers of the free world. The New Orleans Saints are listed as the favorites to win the Super [...]

I’ve been told Varitek was informed his role will greatly diminish. It appears Victor Martinez will be slated to catch about 125 games, with Varitek getting [...]
Pats-Colts stat of the day: Rodney Harrison 5-0 vs. Peyton Manning

We will throw out a few stats the rest of the week on this matchup on Sunday night. While most people like to compare Tom Brady and Peyton Manning, and Brady’s slight statistical lead (7-3 record, 2-1 in playoffs and three Super Bowl rings) here’s a head-shaker. When Rodney Harrison was in the starting lineup [...]
Today was cleanup day on Yawkey Way in Boston. Victor Martinez’s option for $7 million was picked up. Jason Varitek’s option for $5 million and Alex Gonzalez’s for $6 million were not.
