Very likely, Yes. The Pats WR's don't threaten anyone vertically which was a huge factor in the loss today. Nobody commanded a double team which limited the space for the inside routes.
Tom Brady knew how important Randy was to the team, it's unfortunate that a vocal contingent of Patriots...
Something that just popped in my head. Do you think it's possible that Belichick's "coversation" with Randy after the Cincinnati game had to do with a trade? Essentially a deal between the two sides for Randy to keep playing hard and that Bill would look to trade him to a team willing to...
Update. Schefter says he's been working the phones and things are "moving closer" to a deal. Schefter also says that Moss and Belichick DID NOT HAVE WORDS today, that they DID NOT EVEN SEE EACH OTHER. Schefter seems to think that a deal will either happen tomorrow (Vikings install their...
This seems a lot like the rumors that Randy Moss would be traded prior to his first season in New England when he was out with an injury. I feel like this is in part a reaction to the bizarre gameplan last night.
Just one comment on this. At the beginning of the second half the sidline reporter for ESPN said she talked to Sparano and asked why Marshall hadn't been getting the ball. Sparano's response was that it was coverage but that they had to do a better job of moving Marshall around and getting him...
My speculation
Most likely use of the spot: Pats see Fred Taylor as down for a week or two and an increased role for Green-Ellis on offense means a decrease in his role on special teams. That combined with the special teams giving up a TD against the Bills, leads the Patriots to add a...
I see a defense that is not able to take anything away from the opposing offense. The secondary gets a lot of blame, but I don't think we stand out on any of the 3 levels of the defenes (even Vince has looked bad at tmes, especially when kicked out to end).
I think there's room for...
The quality of the posts on this board continue to amaze me. I won't even get in to the ridculous assertion that you know that Davone Bess has a better attitude than Randy Moss (by the way, how many teammates have to say Randy Moss is an F'ing great teammate before some people will believe...
Surprised this thread has gotten this long without anyone mentioning the injury issues with Stewart. He's had a nagging heal injury (after the foot injury he had in college) and had an achilles injury that kept him out most of training camp this year. Stewart has barely been able to practice...
The first interception was a "miscommunication" per Randy Moss's postgame interview. What likely happened was Brady expected Moss to make a route adjustment and go downfield while Moss felt Cromartie was bailing deep and he should settle. If you watch the replay, you will see that Cromartie...
Vincent Jackson better than Moss? That's hilarious.
I highly doubt the Patriots are interested. If they were willing to give up a draft pick in the first 3 rounds for help this year, it would be for a defensive player.
The first pick was actually a miscommunication (per Moss's press conference). My guess is Tom expected Randy to take his route up field and Randy didn't do that. If you watch the replay, Cromartie is like 5 yards further down the sideline than Randy when the ball is thrown. The only real...
We couldn't run the ball at all, which put us in way too many 3rd and long situations. The Jets were daring the Patriots to run at times, and they couldn't rise to the challenge.
