The Patriots decided to stay in house as they re-signed QB Matt Gutierrez to the practice squad.  If something happened to Matt Cassel the Patriots would probably start Gutierrez over rookie Kevin O’Connell who’s still a little raw.  Gutierrez played in 3 games (0 starts) in the preseason for the Patriots this year and he […]

The Patriots have lost possibly the best QB in NFL history for the rest of the season due to a torn left ACL.  He completed 7 of 11 passes (63.6%) for 76 yards with 0 TD passes and 0 interceptions (83.9 QB Rating) last Sunday and that’s what his season numbers will look like at […]

The Patriots won the football game on Sunday against the Chiefs but they have likely lost the war as Tom Brady tore his ACL and will miss the rest of the 2008 season.  Brady completed 7 of 11 passes for 76 yards before being injured.  Matt Cassel came off of the bench and to the […]

The Chiefs couldn’t have picked a worse team to play in the season opener.  The Patriots have a run stuffing defense and that is what you know Herman Edwards will want his team to do.  Larry Johnson will need the offensive line to control the line of scrimmage against the Patriots and I don’t see […]

The Patriots have signed 31-year old CB Deltha O’Neal.  O’Neal is a talented player who should help the Patriots out this season.  He played in all 16 games (8 starts) for the Bengals last season and he made 52 tackles, defensed 9 passes and he had 1 interception.  O’Neal will likely fit in on the […]

The Patriots have waived WR Chad Jackson.  Jackson played in all 4 preseason games for the Patriots this season and he caught 7 passes for 66 yards (9.4 avg) with 2 TD grabs.  But, Jackson was a huge bust when the games counted for the Patriots and that’s the reason they got rid of him.  […]

I have a hunch that the Patriots are going to have some issues this season with age and durability.  Tom Brady has been banged up for quite a while now and the defense is getting old in places.  Plus, the secondary could be a huge weakness for the Patriots this season.  Take the under and […]

The Patriots will be without veteran running back Kevin Faulk who has been suspended for a game by the NFL due to a marijuana charge.  The Patriots shouldn’t miss Faulk against the Chiefs in the home opener as LaMont Jordan will probably get his playing time.

The Patriots took a quick look at center Mike Flynn and they didn’t like what they saw.  That’s the reason for his quick release as Flynn is looking like he is done in the NFL.

The Patriots will be without OT Ryan O’Callaghan for the entire 2008 season after he was placed on the Injured Reserve List with a serious shoulder injury.  Starting right guard Stephen Neal will miss at least the first six weeks of the season after he was placed on the PUP List.  Neal has shoulder and […]
