Thoughts on the Patriots...

1. Coach Bill tried to man up on Rex Ryan and lost BIG TIME! The Jets ran their mouths all week. Wes Welker tried it. Coach Bill benched him for the first series. It reeked of: Rex, you can't control your team, but I sure can! Did it cost the Pats the game?!? Probably not. Then again, they didn't score on that opening drive did they?!? Then there was the whole Danny Woodhead thing. Since the Patriots signed the Jets castoff, he has been a very nice player. He was the proverbial change of pace back, as well as a nifty third down option. Yet, last week Coach Bill decided Woodhead would become The Guy against the Jets. Again, it reeked of: Rex, I'm smarter than you. I'll take your reject running back and kick you out of the playoffs with him toting the rock. Um, good gawd, man. He's Danny Woodhead. Why would you turn your back on 1,000 yard rusher BenJarvus Green-EllisJones Smith Thompson Davis?!?

2. Matt Light sucked, as always! For unknown reasons, Matt Light has a rep as a good player. We think he's always sucked. And, for the most part, sucked badly. As usual, he got his ass kicked last Sunday. We can only hope he retires or The Krafts decide not to give him a new contract.

3. Why did Coach Bill go for the onside kick?!? S-T-U-P-I-D!!!!! Kick deep. Play D. Use your two timeouts.

4. Nice hurry-up offense! Pats fans lambasted us when our Eagles and the ever crappy Don McNabb wasted precious minutes in the huddle while trailing in the fourth quarter of the 2005 Super Bowl. What did the Pats do when trailing in the fourth quarter against the Jets?!? They dicked around in the huddle. When they finally got to the line, what did they do?!? They ran the ball about a dozen straight times. They had the ball for eight minutes! And they didn't even score. How is that effing possible?!?

5. Next year! Draft a couple of O-linemen. Then spend every pick on a defensive lineman (i.e.PASS RUSHER) or outside linebacker. And if you are really daring, go find another wide receiver.
