    The Krafts

    Why anyone would give a shit who the billionaire owner of the Patriots is dating or where he’s getting his handjobs (assuming everything is consensual) is beyond me. I think the documentary was a bad look, but he’s far from the first rich, eccentric octogenarian to do some weird shit. Kept the...

    Just What is Apex Mountain: Rewatchables discussion thread

    I hadn't seen Internal Affairs in a long time but watched it over the weekend so I could listen to the pod, and while I like the movie, it is not a "rewatchable" movie by any stretch. Manchester by the Sea isn't either.

    Potential new NFL rules

    I'm all for rules to make it safer for the players but the kickoff and the hip drop tackle ban both suck. Of course I'll still watch. But the NFL makes it so hard sometimes to be a consumer of their product.

    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    Just to add to this, I was out running and errand over lunch and listening to a bit of Bertrand and Zolak and Zolak was basically saying the same thing, that he had spoken with a handful of players who gave lengthy interviews who were upset at the footage that got used vs. what never made it in...

    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    Like, give me an idea of what the thing would be that only BB and Butler knew about, that if it became public would be embarrassing for Butler, and that BB felt like he had to bench him for the SB over it, but could never tell another sole about it? I’m trying to imagine what that might be, I...

    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    I don’t know, if Butler was given a concrete reason for why he was benched don’t you think he might have mentioned it to some of the other players on the team who also don’t seem to know to this day why he was benched? I find it hard to believe too, but I also find it hard to believe that this...

    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    I said it to my wife while we were watching this last night, I don’t know that Butler playing/not playing would have changed the outcome. But, benching a starter who had played 98% of the snaps without any kind of explanation to anyone is fucking absurd. Maybe me and Johnny Foxboro don’t...

    A Reunion: Brissett back in New England. 1 year, $8 million

    Except, you know, the guys out there playing to win who won’t be on the team next year playing for contracts, as well as the coaching staff that’s now gone. Players on NFL teams are actual human beings who for the most part play to win and have no incentive not to.

    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    I'm sort of struggling to understand who the target audience is for this thing. The focus is much more on the surrounding drama rather than the greatness of the team or the players or the coach. As a Pats fan I'm watching, but I find myself disappointed in many of the ways people have outlined...

    Eliot Wolf will be in charge of the personnel department,

    Please with the Mac stuff, can we stop it or put it in the Mac thread or something?

    Eliot Wolf will be in charge of the personnel department,

    Jesus Fucking Christ the Mac stuff infects every thread on this forum and is fucking tired and boring. He sucked and he sucks, nobody disagrees. I happen to think that boiling down all of the problems with the Pats right now into one player is absurdly reductive, but it doesn't much matter...

    Eliot Wolf will be in charge of the personnel department,

    What do we expect the guy to say, "We're just going to keep on doing what Bill was doing. It was all Mac's fault, we just need a QB and, voila, the whole thing is fixed." Obviously the Krafts thought the problem went beyond just Mac, otherwise Bill would still be here. The new guy is being...

    Patriots' 2024 Free Agency Thread

    I don't want Henry at this stage of his career either, but are we sure Rham is anything other than a JAG? I was a huge fan of his prior to last year, and I know the line sucked, but man he looked slow and unable to do much of anything after contact. I think the position needs an upgrade.
