  • Pats, Brady Move to 10-3
    December 16, 2011

    Though the New England Patriots don’t have nearly their best team in recent years, don’t tell that to Tom Brady.  After holding off the Redskins and winning a tough 34-27 game on the road, the Patriots are now 10-3 and in a commanding position in the AFC East, which they have absolutely dominated for the last decade.  The Patriots once again showed their lack of talent on defense, but it simply doesn’t matter when you have Tom Brady clicking on offense.  Even though Brady threw an uncharacteristic interception in the back of the endzone late in the game, Brady still is putting together an MVP-caliber season and leading the Patriots toward the top of the AFC in the process.

  • Pats Bounce Back, Thump Jets
    November 13, 2011

    With the Jets looking to make a statement at home and the Pats looking very beatable the last couple of weeks, Tom Brady took the Pats on his back and gave them a must needed win, one that might end up sending them on their way in the AFC East.  Brady ended up having one of his best games of the season, as he threw for 329 yards and three touchdowns without a pick, which turned out to be more than enough as the Pats’ defense was able to curtail Mark Sanchez in the second half.  After the win, the Pats move to 6-3 and are in a commanding position over the 5-4 Jets, not to mention the 5-4 and fading Buffalo Bills.

  • Patriots Hand Cowboys New Heartbreaker
    October 25, 2011

    The Cowboys were in line for another win, and it just didn’t happen.  Though in former games it was questionable throws and passing calls that got the Cowboys into trouble, this time they got burned by going conservative.  Leading by three, the Cowboys dialed it down and kept the ball on the ground, giving the Patriots a chance with the ball for only a couple minutes left in the fourth.  Even though the Cowboys had stifled the Tom Brady and the Pats for much of the day, Brady led the Patriots down the field and threw a clutch game-winning touchdown to Aaron Hernandez with just 22 seconds left on the clock.

  • Pats/Steelers is Marquee Matchup
    October 25, 2011

    As the season moves on, the Pittsburgh Steelers and New England Patriots look like the teams we thought they were heading into the season.  This week, with the Pats coming off of a bye and the Steelers narrowly surviving a game against the Cardinals, the two will square up in Pittsburgh.  Could it be a potential preview of the AFC Championship Game?  You never know with these two, as they’ve been in and out of the biggest postseason games in the AFC over the last decade, with a combined five Super Bowl rings in the process.

  • Game of the Week: Cowboys at Patriots
    October 15, 2011

    Sometimes everything just clicks into place, and that seems to be happening with the Week 6 matchup featuring the Dallas Cowboys and New England Patriots.  The Pats are off to their usual good start, with Tom Brady posting several absolutely enormous games, and the Cowboys have been bouncing up and down in a series of dramatic games.  While Tony Romo gutted out a win against the Redskins on Monday Night Football playing with a broken rib, he’s also been the source of plenty of criticism late in the game, as he’s made some questionable throws that have been problematic in the fourth quarter.

  • Welker Tops Fantasy in Week 3
    September 27, 2011

    With offensive numbers exploding across the board, we’ve seen some huge totals already this year, a trend that is likely to continue with rules that favor the offensive side.  On Sunday, even in a loss to Buffalo, wideout Wes Welker was the fantasy stud of the day, grabbing 16 balls for more than 200 yards and two touchdowns, giving him an enormous start to the season that has him ranked as the number one fantasy receiver in all of football.  Also exploding on Sunday was Darren McFadden, who ran all over the Jets supposedly strong defense to the tune of 171 yards and two touchdowns.  What’s even more impressive is that he had only 19 rushes on the day, looking like the highly hyped back that he was coming out of college.

  • Brady Eviscerates Dolphins
    September 13, 2011

    Those looking for a show on Monday Night Football certainly got one, as Tom Brady came out of the gates absolutely chucking the ball all over the field.  Against the Dolphins in the season opener on the road, Brady ended up going for 517 yards and four touchdowns, easily enough to push the Patriots to a huge 38-24 to open the season.  In true Brady form, he spread the ball all over the field, hitting eight different receivers, including Wes Welker for eight catches, 160 yards and two touchdowns.  Not only are the numbers staggering but Brady looked just about perfect on Monday, as he was hitting everyone he threw to in the hands against a baffled Dolphins defense.

    August 12, 2011

    Before the preseason even started, the New England Patriots were being called out as one of the teams to beat in the National Football League in 2011. Even though the preseason hardly counts, the Patriots proved they were just that by routing the Jacksonville Jaguars 47-12 on Thursday.

    August 11, 2011

    There are many stars that are a part of the New England Patriots, which often makes the salary cap a difficult thing for the Patriots. One way to help with those numbers is by renegotiating contracts. The Patriots did just that recently with All-Pro guard Logan Mankins.

    August 10, 2011
