Today it dawned on me that Weeden is our tanking strategy. I mean, the man just cannot win! It's like that play The Producers.

We will draft a top pick this year, nurse him behind Romo for 2-3 years and not skip a beat at QB. I can see clearly now, te pain is gone!

ride Weeden to 2-14!

Apparently being a dumbfuck mark gets you into the SB. Someone sell Bradford some aluminum siding!

Do you really think Brady is just a mark in this? The guy is going around claiming that his magic elixir will cure cancer among other things and using Brady's testimonials to convince people to forgo their medical treatments. No way is Brady anything but complaisant in this scheme to rob the sick and helpless.

Brady is not a smart man. He is getting scammed just as much as anyone else. Belichick has been using him the same way for years, and his wife uses him as a sort of trophy husband. Boys got a pretty face and a good arm but there ain't much goin on behind the scenes.

It really does. Thurmond has been amazing. I cant believe how well that has worked out for the Eagles. I love what Davis did with the D last week. All the 4-3 looks really seemed to confuse the Saints. Hopefully they can come up huge against the Giants this week.

Tyrod Taylor could miss multiple games with an MCL sprain suffered on a horse-collar tackle Sun. Bills will prepare EJ Manuel to start Sun..

I think it'd be easier if Pats fans just said "yeah Brady is an asshole off the field and does shady shit but I like it when the Pats win so I don't give a shit beyond that"

I think Brady is probably fucking weird and lives in a bubble cut off from the rest of humanity, but in the grand scheme of asshole football players in real life, Brady is not on the list. I think he's #2 on the most charitable football players list, does tons of work for Best Buddies, and him and Giselle gave something like $1.5million to the the hurricane relief in Haiti back in 2012. He's been doing the Best Buddies stuff for 10+ years and that's not just giving cash to something.

Despite divorcing his first wife and then shacking up with a super model, he seemingly has a very good relationship with all of his kids and even with Bridget Moynihan given that they had a very public divorce.

Then again, he's also an athlete prone to not being the sharpest tool in the shed. While he's never had any sort of drunkenness scandals, beat up his girlfriend, abandoned his children, or anything like that, he seemingly believes in alternative medicines, doesn't think that soda is good for you, and encourages pro-active preventative medicines, and the guy who has come up with this advanced diet plan for him is a pseudo-science quack. Guess what, this describes like 95% of celebrities, who latch onto every insane advanced "medical" treatment. He definitely comes off as weird, but only an asshole if you hate him. You can't look at the other stuff he does, especially compared to the high-profile list of shame the NFL has in the last 5, 10 years, and say "wow, Brady is a real off field asshole!"

Everyone's making fun of NFC East for being the NFC South from last year, but that division would all have pretty good records if it weren't for the Falcons running through them bitches.

He doesn't need the money. I really think he and Russ are true believers. It's never surprised me that these guys all have a libertarian bent. They work really hard and see that pay off with lots of success, and don't understand how that can't work for everyone's troubles.

Smart people have told Russ and Brady that they can't succeed all their lives. Both guys did it anyway. So when smart people tell them their lack of concussions and good health aren't due to magic potions, well, that's just smart people being wrong again

You're right though, we need to put our differences aside. What do you expect on Sunday? I honestly have no clue. The whole tough guy thing is a welcome change but what are the chances Dan Campbell actually knows how to perform as a HC during a real game situation? Also, how much does he actually know about football?

Cowboys to work out free agent RB LaMike James tomorrow. 44 carries for 193yds in 18 games. I don't get this move at all. We have 3 backs right now, why a 4th? Practice squad player is all I can think.

BOSTON (AP) — A judge has agreed to delay the double murder trial of former New England Patriots player Aaron Hernandez by seven weeks.

Prosecutors are seeking evidence held by a law firm that previously represented Hernandez.

No one would say what that evidence is. But the judge did say it relates to a defendant’s right to seek confidential legal advice from a lawyer.

This trial has lasted ages.
