Numerous rule changes and rule tweaks have changed the game, enabling passers to put up big numbers and let offenses score at will. As a result, quarterbacks are the highest paid NFL players, with those most entrusted in protecting the QB's blind side (left tackles) and those with the … [Read more...] about Who will Break Dan Marino’s Passing Record Next Week?
New England Patriots Running the Table to End Regular Season?
On Nov 6th, the New England Patriots 2011 season hit rock bottom. The New York Giants had gotten the best of them yet again, and although it was a close, last second loss on a questionable play, it was very deflating. Especially when combined with the one-sided defeat to the Pittsburgh Steelers the week before, it was rare back to back losses for Tom Brady and company. Then … [Read more...] about New England Patriots Running the Table to End Regular Season?
New England Patriots vs. New York Giants: Brutally Honest Game Preview
Here we go- two 5-2 NFL clubs with eyes on winning their respective East divisions. And of course New England Patriots vs. New York Giants is a rematch of Super Bowl XL.

Johnson was their "best" DB) and the 2010 Houston Texans (you and I could have burned them for a TD...if we had a good QB getting us the ball). It's that the Patriots have the worst pass defense … [Read more...] about Steelers Hines Ward is Right- New England Secondary is AWFUL

New England Patriots Find New Tailback in Stevan Ridley?
How much longer are the New England Patriots going to go with the Law Firm and Woodhead approach at tailback? Don’t get me wrong, it’s working for them, both BenJarvus Green-Ellis and Danny Woodhead are serviceable to solid, but I wonder if they’ll ever bring back a feature back mentality. The last bulk carrier was Corey Dillon and that was over three years ago. Many … [Read more...] about New England Patriots Find New Tailback in Stevan Ridley?
