Kdo5 said:The Patriots dont have to push the panic button if, for some reason Laurence Maroney doesnt do great in his rookie season. He is not going to be our starting running back. Dillon can bounce back from his injuries last year(whether you want to believe it or not, he is a tough guy and will do whatever it takes to be on the field even with injuries). Kevin Faulk and Patrick Pass are very good backups, so I like 4 good running backs on our roster.
Just being tough doesn't make you good in the NFL. Corey Dillon is defintly on the decline and probably won't have another 1000 yard season. Sure I think Maroney will some day be great, but just not yet. Nonetheless, your answer is understandable.
Why did he fall down in the draft? I dont know. Many people were stunned by his workouts and speed and he never did anything but impress during the scouting. He just fell, the Pats took him and it was a steal. Again we dont know, like Laurence Maroney will be great in the NFL, but they sure were in college and if they have impressed Bellichick enough I'm more than happy to have them. I'm sure Belichick wouldnt trade up to snag Chad early in the second round if he had any doubts about him.
This question really can't be answerd. You never know how a player will turn out coming out of the draft. I think Chad is a good player, but you can never say a rookie is NFL ready.
Yup, hes gone. But does that mean no other kicker can boot a 40 yard game winner? Heck no. Gostkowski is most likely going to be the kicker on opening day judging by mini camp at least, it was said the rookie out performed Gramatica. The Pats did not keep Vinatieri for one sole reason, he was asking for way too much money...view the link in my sig if you really want to.
Once again, the rookie situation. But I guarentee he is no Adam Vinatieri.
There are a few people returning from injuries. Most people are doing just fine. Our concerns lay mostly on Center Dan Koppen and Rodney Harrison. But I will never doubt Rodney. He is one of the toughest guys you will find in the NFL. If anyone can return from such a severe injury and play at a good level, its definitley Rodney Harrison. Injuries happen unexpectadly, most of our players are feeling fine now and all we can hope for is no catastrophic Brady injury or another case of secondary depletion. As of right now, injuries arent a huge concern, though we have a few players to be a little concerned about.
Ok, I guess we will just see how it shakes out.
Pretty distastefull if I say so myself. And as of now its not a big deal, as everything is going fine, all but one of our draft picks have signed nearing training camp. All it is is a few idiots spreading rumors, and pretty much none of the big sites are buying what the Boston Herald is saying...or they simply do not think it is a big enough deal to be discussed. And I dont see why it would cause locker room problems as most of the locker room highly respects Bill.
Yeah I threw that in because the other guy threw in the question about JT and ZT's realationship.
The reason I generated all these questions is to make a point. You can make questions like that for every single team. You never really know anything, that's why they play the games.

BLITZKRIEG said:The last time I checked, ESPN was a public site. I'm not sure how many Phinz fans actually participated in this meaningless poll, but after over 12,500 votes tallied, Miami is the clear front runner according the members who decided to post their opinions...
Personally, I don't think the majority of Phinz fans put much stock into off-season polls like this one. It's just an "opinion poll", and until we actually see these teams in action in 2006, we wont really know what to expect....
That said, I do think this is the year that the Phinz regain the AFC East title...
:rocker:
Aqua4Ever04 said:Welcome aboard Blitz. Before you get into any tiffles, just remember that some of these people are some of the most close minded rude people there are. Don't let any of them get to you, most of them just think that the Patriots are the only team in football.

I don't care enough about this thread other than to point out that you're wildly wrong. . . as usual.
You have me mistaken. MY job is to sit back and point out to everyone else where they're wrong.BLITZKRIEG said:Thanks for pointing that out. You know everything....
Tell us again how the Jets are going to surprise everyone in the AFC East, and end up winning 8 games this year, I need a good laugh, and you're always good for one regarding your homeristic tendencies towards the Jets....

Carry on. . .
Offseason, Ace. And you know, of course, that TGG's archives were all wiped out right after the season ended, don't you?BLITZKRIEG said:Come to think of it, I do have you mistaken. You don't know anything about football. Over on TGG, you actually spend most of your time either in the "BS Forum" / or playing with your avatars, as shown....

How could someone who spends so little time talking about football, actually have any real knowledge of the game??...You talk about how I'm always wrong, and yet by the looks of your interests, you don't even know what a football is. Open mouth / insert foot.:rocker:
agreed, i dont understand why everyone is so excited about Miami...i mean, the last time i checked, we still had BradyPatsDeb said:No, it's just that all the idiots outside of NE believe the hype about Miami. I can't wait until they lose to Pittsburgh's back up QB on opening night
