By zach ⋅ January 12, 2012 ⋅ One comment

In the last 10 years the New England Patriots have developed into a perennial contender. It is expected that they make the playoffs, and the only way a season can be deemed a success is with a super bowl title. By this high standard, the last two years have been great disappointments, with the Patriots [...]

By Matt Goisman ⋅ January 4, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

All’s well that ends well. The New England Patriots overcame an early 21-point deficit Sunday, blowing out the Bills in the second half and cruising to home-field advantage for the playoffs.

The 12-3 New England Patriots will host the 6-9 Buffalo Bills on Sunday to wrap up the 2011 NFL regular season. The two teams are heading in opposite directions, as the Patriots have won their last seven games, and the Bills have just one win over that stretch. The Bills beat the Patriots by a [...]

By Taylor ⋅ December 29, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was named AFC Offensive Player of the Week following New England’s 27-24 come-from-behind victory over the Miami Dolphins.

Ryan Fitzpatrick’s Football Intelligence Not Up to Harvard Standards

By Matt Goisman ⋅ December 28, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

Humorist Dave Barry once wrote that Harvard University “for more than three centuries has produced graduates who, no matter what their philosophical differences, are all dedicated to the lofty goal of subtly letting you know that they went to Harvard.” Former Harvard Crimson and current Buffalo Bills quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick hasn’t needed to purse his [...]

New England Patriots Report Card: Week 16

By Matt Goisman ⋅ December 27, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

The Miami Dolphins narrowly avoided disaster Saturday against the New England Patriots. Somehow a group of talented, motivated football players broke into their locker room, knocked everyone out, stole their uniforms and took the field for kickoff. The “Dolphins” went into halftime up 17-0. Luckily, the true – and truly terrible – Dolphins regained consciousness [...]

Tom Brady-Gisele Mega Mansion Almost Ready

By KC Downey ⋅ December 20, 2011 ⋅ 2 comments

Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen’s unbelievably humongous mansion in the Brentwood section of Los Angeles, California is almost done. The couple purchased the 3.7-acre plot of land for $11 million a few years ago, and then proceeded to build a 22,000-square-foot (!!!) home. When the home is done, it’s expected to have eight bedrooms, a [...]

New England Patriots Report Card: Week 15

By Matt Goisman ⋅ December 20, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

Whatever the source of the Denver Broncos’ new-found momentum, it ended in the second quarter of Sunday’s game against the New England Patriots. Neither Tim Tebow‘s speed nor his supplications could turn back Tom Brady‘s ruthless but balanced offensive attack. The Patriots beat the Broncos, 41-23, clinching the AFC East and moving ahead of both [...]

At the End of the Day the Patriots Still Have Tom Brady

By Matthew Marcantonio ⋅ December 19, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

Holding a one point lead with 1:18 left in the second quarter against Denver on Sunday, Tom Brady took the snap and plunged ahead 1-yard for a touchdown on his infamous quarterback sneak. As he picked himself off the ground he took a few steps in the end zone and did his best Rob Gronkowski [...]

Tom Brady and the Patriots Looking to End “Tebow Time”

By Bobby Doherty ⋅ December 18, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

The Patriots (10-3) will be looking for their sixth win in a row Sunday. The Broncos (8-5) will be looking for their seventh.

New England Patriots Report Card: Week 14

By Matt Goisman ⋅ December 13, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

To beat the New England Patriots, a team must play perfectly for 60 minutes. Even when Tom Brady is so out of sorts he gets into a screaming match with his offensive coordinator, the Patriots still score so much that anything short of error-free football won’t cut it. The Washington Redskins made two mistakes Sunday: [...]

Video: Tom Brady, Bill O’Brien Fight on Patriots Sideline

By KC Downey ⋅ December 11, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

Tom Brady threw a red zone interception with six minutes to go against the Redskins on Sunday, giving Washington a chance to tie the game late instead of ending the drive with a 14-point lead. Judging by hand motions, it appeared Brady was furious with Tiquan Underwood, who let Josh Wilson undercut his route to [...]
