y by his overall performance but also his strike to Gaffney and another on-the-money bullet to Randy Moss on a key third-down slant play.

Cassell is no longer the concern. The concern now is injuries in the offensive and defensive backfields, the defense's inability to slow anyone down for long periods of time, and - after Sunday - Belichick's ability to close out a game mentally.

Well, it appears Tom Brady will be out for the season. I think I speak for all of Patriot Nation when I say, 'dang'.

To call the loss of Brady a blow would be a seismic understatement. This is something more along the lines of a cataclysmic bazooka blast from outer space. Kamikaze Pollard, as the Chief's safety shall from now on be known, took out the central nervous system of the finely tuned Patriot machine and reduced the team to a motley assortment of loose parts.

or utterly bizarre sports figure in Boston.  Not Pedro, not Schilling, not Pierce, Belichick, Randy Moss or anyone else can even come close to Manny.  If you don't believe me, you just don't learn (I'd like to take this opportunity to remind you all, especially Benny, that it is a tall order to argue with me about Boston sports teams, figures or events that have happened within my lifetime).

struggled to adjust. We began to see a lot more 3 & outs, less successful lobs to Randy Moss, and much less points scored.

But here are three reasons why this offense will be more efficient if not better:

Much can be said about the Patriots recent offseason loses. Much like what can be said about me posting nothing in 2 weeks. They're both not good.

Asante Samuel, Randall Gay, Roosevelt Colvin, Eugene Wilson, Donte Stallworth, and of course, Oscar Lua are the recent casualties of the Patriots Super Bowl... attending 2007 team. When you look at the contracts taht some of these guys have gotten, (17.6$ Million for Gay, anyone?) it's easy to see how the Patriots justify letting them go.

Which means that his contract expires on February 28, 2008. Which also means that the star receiver is free to sell his services to any team in the league, including the Patriots. However, there is reason to belive that Moss and the Patriots are interested in reaching an accord that will enable Moss to end his career in a New England uniform. Technically speaking, the 2007 NFL season ends on Thursday, February 2008. Until then, the two sides are unable to consummate a long-term deal and Moss could conceivably sign with another team without that team having to offer the Pats compensatory draft picks. The primary allure for Moss to remain in New England - Tom Brady. If and when a new deal is reached, it's official announcement is expected on or after February 29, 2008. See story link below:

    When the Patriots picked up Randy Moss, Wes Welker, and Donte Stallworth in the off-season I predicted 19-0. After the spy gate incident I felt even more confident about an undefeated season. What happened then? The Patriots steam rolled teams around the league on their way to smashing records including the first ever 16-0 regular season.

se be if Tom Brady went down with an injury? Is Matt Cassell ready to step in and win a game? Or if Randy Moss sustains an injury, is the receiving corps anywhere near as potent? Suddenly there isn’t the need to double cover him, and a defense can better protect itself against the slot receivers. Wes Welker’s production, while well earned, would not be possible without Moss split out wide. The Giants have a team that resembles the Patriot’s championship teams of the last five years: a cohesive unit that doesn’t lose stride if one piece is missing. However, with the Pats’ defense as porous as it currently is, perfecting the “bend but don’t break” approach, the team would be in trouble if their offense couldn’t be counted on for thirty points per game.
