    Carr after Cleveland loss - "Watch what this team does going forward"

    Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Enjoy.... Carr hasn’t been in a huddle with Brady, but he has looked into his eyes enough to see something special. The last time Carr did it, he knew New England’s upcoming opponents were in trouble. The former Michigan coach went to Cleveland earlier this...

    Dilemma of greatness = expectations/pressure

    first off, like everyone I'm really excited and anxious to see what we can accomplish this year. It's silly to look for weaknesses -- it's the cap era -- the days of stacked rosters are over (except maybe for this team). The coaching staff obsesses over team psychology. It's very tricky. The...

    Congress must launch LEAGUE WIDE investigation

    If the problem is, as specter says, "cheating" -- you can't confine your probe to just 1 of 32 teams. There is plenty of testimony from highly decorated coaches/players that recording signals and other forms of "cheating" are widespread.... Mitchell didn't just go after Barry Bonds....they...

    Mr. Objectivity Paul Perillo

    Your job is to follow the Patriots. How in the hell can you continue to make comparisons between the 07 Colts and the 06 Pats. TWO WORDS: REGGIE WAYNE! Yeah, identical situations Paul.... News flash: NE's problem last year was NOT HAVING A #1 WR....or anyone who TB had any kind of rapport...

    ANTI-Denver game

    the parallels at the outset were just scary...trapped in bad field position...somehow we kick a FG to score first...then came a 3rd and short and AGAIN we ran Faulk right up the middle on a draw!!! This time he didn't fumble. If you were looking for an early sign that was it. I figured we'd...

    Attn: Media -- Colts' O always underachieves!

    "Peyton only has 6 opportunities a game to score." - Tom Jackson Here are the FACTS!...cover your eyes if you can't take it... In their last four postseason losses, the Colts gave up 153 yards of rushing to their opponents. Even so, the Colts still had FOURTY-TWO opportunities to score...

    Give Gost Credit

    I wish we hadn't needed him as much today but the Jets came to play...and his 9 points were HUGE. Imagine the horns he'd be wearing if he'd missed a single kick...drilled 'em all...kid is clutch...and getting more confident. I think he'd been better off kicking on the road...there's actually...

    ATT patsfans: OC/QB/HC NOT the problem

    YOUNG INEXPERIENCED SKILL PLAYERS IS ISSUE sorry for shouting, but talk radio has us under their control. I'm even hearing the brady injury theories again (dufus deossie)...the problem is so obvious that we just can't accept it. of course we lack rhythm, flow, etc... it's not magic. they'll...

    random thoughts so far (monday crew, cincy's O, SI/ESPN picks)

    Tirico: Joe, how is Favre going to deal with two rookies on the line this year? Theisman: Yes he does Mike, Favre has two rookies on his line, Michelle what's happening on the sideline? Tafoya: Well I was speaking to Brett and he mentioned the two rookies on his line. Kolber: Me too...

    FO gave Branch leverage

    Dear posters who called me names last week, I hope you now understand why I became pessimistic last week... By allowing Deion to shop around, the Pats threw all of their leverage out the window. How? By making Branch genuinely disgruntled. YOU CAN'T KEEP A DISGRUNTLED PLAYER...regardless of...

    SI Pats Preview Quotes

    From Dr. Z's Preview: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/nfl/specials/preview/2006/scout.report/patriots.html TB on Maroney: "He's a strange kind of a back. He's not the kind of guy who'll pound it inside, but you see him take off around the edge, and he'll get hemmed in, and it looks...

    unwanted: dead or alive

    POSITIVE karma: - team plane struck by lightning on way to atlanta...plane doesn't crash. - 2 rainbows touchdown on practice field. NEGATIVE karma: "Jon Bon Jovi was in attendance for the duration of the practice session. The part-owner of the Philadelphia Soul spent some time chatting with...

    Why Fantasy Sucks -- ESPN's Top 75 Def. Players

    Seymour is not among the top SEVENTY-FIVE defensive players according to fantasy stat geek Scott Engel. It could potentially be insider material so I'm not authorized to post the full list, but here's a link to Finheaven where some irresponsible copyrighter exposed it for all the world to see...

    D vs O debate: another stellar edition of NFL Live...

    Today NFL Live continued to propagate the myth that offense is “less important†than defense. It's tautological to suggest that "D wins championships" because we all know you can't win a championship with lousy D, but you can't win with a lousy O either. A team is the sum of its parts, if...

    2-TEs Ceates Defensive Chaos

    This was a piece about Dallas, but clearly applies to us also. In fact, I'm not sure Dallas has the depth at TE required to run this offense consistently...we didn't last year. The Pats could be the first team to really hammer both 2 and 3 TE sets all the way to the SB... This is where the...

    colts are cracking

    Just to put our offseason "issues" in perspective, here's what's going on with the team Vegas favors to win the Super Bowl... Assorted page 1 topics on IndyStar Message Board: Should Dungy Be Fired? Poll: Whose Fault is it the colts have sucked in Playoffs? How many more years for...

    T. Dilfer and the Mythology of the Irrelevant QB

    The Ravens' all-time MVP, Ray Lewis, is still with the team today...unfortunately, so is Kyle Boller. Dilfer had a fine season in 2000. Despite their defense, they would not have won the SB with Tony Banks. While it's hypothetically possible for another QB to have performed as well or better...
