Well… crap. Just like four years ago, the New England Patriots came up just a couple plays short of beating the New York Giants and claiming their fourth Lombardi Trophy Sunday in Super Bowl XLVI.

Since Corey Dillon’s retirement after the 2006 season, the Patriots have adopted an unofficial implementation of running back-by-committee that has supported some of the most potent and productive offenses that the NFL has seen.

Coming Up Short: Woodhead Out of Running for Madden ’12 Cover

By ⋅ April 11, 2011 ⋅ 2 comments

It would have been a supersized upset if New England Patriots runningback Danny Woodhead could have beaten out Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers in the “Madden ’12″ cover vote. Unfortunately, the mountain was too high to climb for Woodhead. Rodgers earned 56% of the voting, thus eliminating the Pats RB from the competition. The pint-sized Patriot [...]

By ⋅ January 14, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

As part of probably the worst broadcast team in professional sports during NFL Network broadcasts, Joe Theismann says some pretty stupid and worthless things. While giving his opinion about this Sunday’s Patriots-Jets game, Theismann said probably the best thing he’s ever said. He noted the Jets can’t forget “Danny Woodcock out of the backfield,” to [...]

By ⋅ January 14, 2011 ⋅ One comment

Ever since Monday, we’ve all been subject to what the media calls the “War of Words” between the New York Jets and the New England Patriots. But is it really a war if one side attacks and the other side doesn’t respond? Perhaps this should be re-named the “Bay of Pigs Invasion of Words,” or [...]

By ⋅ January 3, 2011 ⋅ One comment

Time and time again, Bill Belichick has shown that he possesses one of the greatest minds in NFL history.

The New England Patriots, able to clinch the AFC East, a first-round bye and home-field throughout the playoffs with a win or New York Jets loss, could not have asked for a better opponent than the Buffalo Bills.

By ⋅ December 12, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

It was a snowstorm powerful enough to deflate the Minneapolis Metrodome. But it could not deflate was the New England Patriots offense.

PATS on the Back: Week 13 vs. New York Jets

By ⋅ December 8, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

“Outcoached.” “Outplayed.” “A total butt whooping.” Yup Rex, that about sums it up. How fun was Monday night’s 45-3 blowout win over the hated Jets? I mean really, with all the hype leading up to that game… the “game of the year,” as ESPN and the NFL was touting it… how flippin’ sweet was that [...]
