We are closing in on the final weeks of the regular season, and there are two teams still undefeatedùColts and Saints. I salute them for the wins they have strung together. For the rest of the teams, parity has struck, and the bookies are running. This has been a terrible year trying to pick winners. I didnÆt do any stats on our own illustrious Patriots fansÆ picks because IÆm sure that ...

The question jumps into your brain, “What was he thinking?”  It’s what I’m thinking when Bill Belichick’s Patriots fail to get the needed yardage on fourth down.   Why is he always going for it on fourth down?   That is an easy question with a huge response that you would never get Bill to fully verbalize. And why should he?   Bill has his allegiances squarely laid out, and the media is not on his ...

It's Week 10 and we now know which teams will most likely be making the playoffs through division wins, but there are a lot of teams still out there on the wild-card bubble. That means that we still have plenty of good football left through the rest of the season. The bye week teams this week are the NY Giants and Houston.

The Kings of the AFC East are alive and well, the rumor of their demise has been largely fabricated. I speak of none other than the New England Patriots. We were only five games into the 2009 season and many pundits were writing a far too premature obituary for the perennial powerhouse. It is a favorite past time for many, trying to predict the downfall of the Pats. HereÆs the funny thing ...

Considering everything that was being said about the Patriots coming into this game against the Ravens, I think the Patriots gave us some answers. The Patriots answered a lot of questions. Can they play tough against a good and acknowledged probable playoff team? They passed the test and looked good doing it. Did they surpass any offensive records doing it? No, they didnÆt have to. What we did find out is that the special ...

ItÆs the fourth week of the NFL regular season, and we continue our weekly series of Patriots fansÆ picks with TR, Steve Frith and Glenn Card. I thought IÆd share a few thoughts on the teams that get to take the week off. Who gets a bye week? Atlanta Falcons This is good chance for a break for the Falcons. They are a good team that got a bit of an education in ...

It’s Tuesday, another day for the regularly scheduled PFA (Patriots Fan Anonymous) meeting at 7 p.m. always held at the local community building. I’m hermatile because I always make the meetings even though I backslide every weekend through the course of the regular NFL season. Call it a weak constitution, a fuzzy commitment to healing, or just call it an insidious addiction to all things Patriots. I know I’m not supposed to ...
