NFL...Not Patriots News

[nefansince75]

11 and 5 without Brady. I still swear that if the the Pats made the playoffs that season they were going to win the Super Bowl. The offense was stellar as the season was winding down. If they hadn't taken that ugly "wildcat" loss to the Dolphins they were going to be a tough out in the playoffs. Pittsburgh represented the AFC that year and NE always beats them. PITT went on to beat a way overmatched Cardinals team.

I think that wildcat game was the last time the fins won a "super bowl"... Oh yeah, there was the Gronk missed tackle game too.

Miami Miracle?

Just read an article on preseason rankings. Listed the Pats at 22, fair or do you feel it's unfair?

I feel 22 is a bit low I have us around 14

I have the Pats winning the division so that puts them no worse than 8.

Unfair? No. It is the author's opinion.
Allow them to enjoy hating on the Patriots. It's all most of them have.
Once we win the division, they'll change to, "you cheated"

Winning the division would be nice but that is a tall order. Can't beat Buff or Mia Jets have improved, Tall Order

Tall order but I believe they're going to do it. Then they enter the playoff's having already played all of the power houses in the NFL.

Well I like the confidence I still feel we are a year away.

Grain of salt...
No pads.
Climate controlled.
No secondary.
No D-linemen.
No down 28-3 on 3rd and long pressure.

But I like it.

It's a tall order in deed. But someone has to win the division. These 4 AFCE teams are going to beat each other up. Should be a fun last month of AFCE football in December/January.

Agree completely. All teams are revamped. Bills is a big ? Allen is very good but wants to win games by himself, which is why he has choked down the stretch. If he can put his ego aside and use more weapons on his team, watch out, they could be deadly.
I like Allen, but he needs to chill a bit if Bills want to make it.

He'd better do it soon. That Buffalo window closing soon.

Now you know that Jalen Ramsey is going to be out for a long, long time. The Miami Dolphins signed free agent Eli Apple, formerly of the Bengals to a one year contract. Now they have Apple and Xavier Howard at the corners. Miami is going for the gold. They still have a great 1-2 punch at CB.

Sony Michel has retired from the NFL at age 28.

I know he had that great playoff stretch that greatly contributed to the last SB run, but how did the Pats not take Chubb instead? Every tea leaf out there indicated Chubb was the better pick.

Apple isn't what he used to be?
Xavier has been an expensive liability with constant injuries throughout his career.
Miami is going for the medical cart......

Well I feel the key to beating Miami is run it down their throats. Don't test the corners, keeps that offense off the field

By the end of last season, Miami DB's were all f'd up. Unfortunately, so was our offense.
This year will be different. Revisit that sentiment after you see our new offensive gameplan in action.

68th

• While rookie Sauce Gardner led the NFL with an 88.5 PFF grade at cornerback this season, Apple’s 53.3 mark ranks 68th at a position where only 64 players start.
