After speaking to several local football coaches, I found that two of them made a similar call &#8212; leading a game, deep in their own territory, fourth and short. Both of them made it and won their games.

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.

He can really be an unlikeable guy from afar.
But then you watch this video, from last week&#8217;s game against Miami, and you understand why he is one of the best, maybe ever.

I&#8217;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 the [...]]]></description>

While most people like to compare Tom Brady and Peyton Manning, and Brady&#8217;s slight statistical lead (7-3 record, 2-1 in playoffs and three Super Bowl rings) here&#8217;s a head-shaker.
When Rodney Harrison was in the starting lineup and finished [...]]]></description>

Victor Martinez&#8217;s option for $7 million was picked up.
Jason Varitek&#8217;s option for $5 million and Alex Gonzalez&#8217;s for $6 million were not.
And Tim Wakefield&#8217;s perpetual $4 million option was destroyed and switched with the a two-year $5 million deal.
What does that mean? Let&#8217;s try and explain.
