    Patriots' 2024 Free Agency Thread

    Until I have a franchise QB in place, I would not trade a future first. It’s the clearest path forward and I want to avoid a lengthening this run of crappy QB play (the meter’s already 4 years running). At least a future first gives one hope.

    Calvin Ridley, you in?

    Agreed. That’s a lot of dough/years for a 30yo who’s not what we’d like him to be. I’d rather keep the powder dry for a WR that may shake out for contract/cap reasons. Our picks are now at the beginning of a round rather than the end, so they have real value to trade partners. If we have to...

    Rate the Mayo Hire

    I’m optimistic. Like how the move is simultaneously a renewal but also provides continuity. Agree on how well the D’s intensity all 17 games speaks to Mayo’s ability to lead and get results. Also like that he’s not a retread and has been in the organization for a long long time. They know all...

    Mac's Future

    What's weird is that usually a player with a deficiency tries to compensate in another area. With his weak arm, you'd think Fuc Face would step into everything to get his arm speed up to something close to average. Instead he actually enhances his deficiency. Zappe in that short window made...

    Jrue the Damaja

    The Nets game - and these highlights - contain a few things struck me. JH passes really well with his left hand which is a huge advantages on opening up angles. That pass to Korent under the basket was amazingly direct and gave LK a huge advantage. He‘s also taking full advantage of...

    The Adventures of Malik Cunningham

    That's interesting. I agree that Mac gives us the best chance to properly evaluate Thornton, Butte, Douglas. That's a huge consideration considering how it might impact draft choices next year. I question whether Mac's arm will help though. Looking at tape, Bedard said Thornton's speed...

    This is now: BB and the direction of the Patriots

    Completely agree. Also, there's the fun of watching a guy you've followed since day one develop. Laundry's great, but it's also important to have a few (welcome) familiar faces.

    Game 1 Philly, goats

    Just saw your posts @Cellar-Door and @Eddie Jurak - I was referring to the jump in stats. 50 td’s just transformed the conversation about Brady. He was viewed as a top Qb before that but he was more the “winner” in that grouping. Manning was the counting numbers guy. @johnmd20 said it well...

    Game 1 Philly, goats

    I'll add that even TOm BRAdy didn't become TOM BRADY until Moss, Welker then Gronk and Edelman put on the Flying Elvis. FWIW I'll add that I'm very encouraged by the overall play yesterday - especially the defense and ST. The OL was a Frankenstein monster, but the stitches held until almost...

    YouTube announces Sunday Ticket Pricing

    Thanks @Jake Peavy's Demons - I signed up for that same plan. It looks good and I like the access to the All-22 later. I don't mind the delay in seeing a game (if I was away I was watching several games hours later anyway), so I think it's going to work well. Appreciate the help..

    YouTube announces Sunday Ticket Pricing

    @Jake Peavy's Demons - it sounds like you have a way that'd work well for me too. Two questions, if you don't mind: are you out of market too? Which plan are you using to do this?

    YouTube announces Sunday Ticket Pricing

    Should I have mentioned that I did this with a dvr? I absolutely could record games on DIRECTV ‘s Sunday ticket. I’d set the recorder for the Pats game and it’d record it and it would be waiting in my playlist when I was ready to watch whether it was an hour or a day later. Probably watched 5...

    YouTube announces Sunday Ticket Pricing

    I’d like to add - can you record a game or start to watch it later? I haven’t been able to find an answer anywhere. Most Sundays, I can’t start watching the Pats until noon PT (I’m on the west coast). Directv’s Sunday ticket was perfect for this.

    Thank you, Marcus

    Nothing is forever. This doesn't have to be his permanent departure. Down the road, Marcus could come back and hopefully win a title with the C's. I think it's a good time to try a new direction with a new voice. The C's just got a bit softer though as Marcus seemed to be their most...

    CB Jack Jones Arrested at Logan for Having 2 Firearms in His Bag

    Years ago I was going to a Warriors game at Oracle with my friend. We were in line to go in the building when he pulls me aside. He had not one, but two full-size Swiss Army knives in his pocket. Beats me why, I'd never seen him pull one out in 15+ years. We went back out near the parking...

    CB Jack Jones Arrested at Logan for Having 2 Firearms in His Bag

    I'm just glad no one was hurt and here's hoping he learns from it. Young guy doing stupid things only works for so long. His agent, somebody, should be sitting him down and pointing out how much money a back-up vet CB makes in the league. That seems his floor given the promise he's shown so...

    Joe Mazzulla officially named head coach

    It's the ticking clock on the core's prime that's the biggest factor here. CJM's circumstance is the coaching equivalent of the Warriors' move to dump Wiseman - they couldn't afford the development time while the sand runs out on their core (although as I understand it, there were cap...

    Joe Mazzulla officially named head coach

    It depends on which players don't like the coach. If you want to keep, say, Tatum, then you'd better have a coach he either likes or respects and hopefully both. The organization gets a pass on this hire if they decide to fire Mazzulla. The circumstance of the hire was unprecedented and the...

    Joe Mazzulla officially named head coach

    The first thing that comes to mind anecdotally is yesterday's 4th Q. The Heat are up by 12 to begin it. C's quickly go on 7-0 run to cut it to 5. TO Spoelstra. He didn't wait for the C's to possibly build on the run. He stopped everything. I don't think CJM should be fired no matter how...
