Favre instead of Peyton

I'm 11 weeks too late, but I finally benched Peyton Manning for Brett Favre.

This was the first and last year I ever draft a quarterback with my first pick.

If Brady has Moss, Welker, Stallworth, and Belichick next year, I will not hesitate to take Brady 1st overall.

THAT WOULD BE TOUGH RUSS. THE QUESTION WE HAVE TO ASK IS THAT ARE THE PATRIOTS KILLING PEOPLE BECAUSE OF SPYGATE? IS BELICHICK OUT TO PROVE A POINT THIS YEAR? WHEN MANNING TOSSED 49 TDS PEOPLE WERE TAKING HIM IN THE FIRST ROUND THE NEXT YEAR. NOT THAT HE DID BAD BUT IT DID NOT WARRANT A FIRST PICK THE NEXT YEAR AND PEOPLE GOT BURNED. SO I GUESS THE JURY IS STILL OUT. WHO KNOWS?

I'm sure every team would like to win every game, but they just aren't good enough to do it. This year they have ability to score at will. So they are putting teams away early. Will they next year?

[/QUOTE]I wouldn't say they're putting them away early. I liken it to a cat who catches a mouse and then keeps them alive until the bitter end and then when the game is over, they will then chomp down on their neck (i.e., going for it on 4th down in the 4th quarter, up by 40+ points). Bill Beelzebub will end up paying for it somehow, somewhere down the road. But, I can't see Brady duplicating this year's performance next year. Defenses will eventually come up with something; they always do (although it seems like none are coming up with it this year).

Are talking about Bill Belecheck the greatest football coach of all time?

The way it is looking they might run the table next year too.

THAT IS A TOUGH POINT TO ARGUE C.C. ESPECIALLY WITH THE FACT THAT I DON'T SEE THIS TEAM HAVING ANY FREE AGENCY PROBLEMS.

I see the possible chink in the Patriots armor as being their defensive leaders are getting a bit long in the tooth.

Mike Vrabel 11th season in the NFL
Tedy Bruschi 12th season
Rodney Harrison 14th season
Junior Seau 18th season

Seau is only a part time player.

I think a Vrabel decline would hurt the most.

San Fran lost last week--The Patriots could be up to #2 in the draft next year.
