    Are you happy with the Drake Maye pick?

    While I'm not so sure about him, I'm hoping you are right. I'd like to see him sit for at least part of the season, rather than rushing him in.

    The 2024 Draft

    Yeah, there was such a run on offense in the 1st round that picking a CB makes some sense, (rather than reaching for third round talent at the top of the second round). Of course, we don’t really know how the 32 teams have ranked this draft, as the talking heads were mostly wrong about when...

    The 2024 Draft

    He’s tall. He has a strong arm. He’s tall. He has a strong arm… All kidding aside, letting him sit and develop is the best thing the Pats could do for Maye.

    The 2024 Draft

    Well he might have been during the day, but tonight, he was a top ten pick.

    The 2024 Draft

    I'm not so sure about that. Penix will sit for a couple years, (assuming Cousins doesn't get hurt before that), and he'll be ready to go.

    The 2024 Draft

    I agree that contributes to it. But some / many QBs simply aren’t that good early on, and take a long time to develop. I do think that by the third year, you usually have a reasonable idea of if they can be a legit starter, (although there are some QBs who took a lot longer, before developing...

    The 2024 Draft

    Just a reminder of how difficult it is to evaluate and select a good QB in the draft. 2021 was supposed to be a ”loaded” QB draft. 2021 Draft….What a Joke — simPLe MiNDs SpoRTs

    Draft day poll

    They have 3 huge needs on offense, QB, WR, & Left tackle. If they make the trade with the Vikings, they should be able to get either a really good WR or Left tackle at 11, depending how the draft plays out. Hopefully, Penix (my choice) or Nix will be there near the end of the first round...

    The 2024 Draft

    If they don’t love who’s there at three, I hope they trade back, and get Penix later. I think teaching him how to throw shorter touch passes, would be easier than teaching someone how to throw accurately down the field.

    Joe Montana very salty about Brady taking GOAT status from him

    They were not as significant as the changes that came later, after Marino retired.

    Joe Montana very salty about Brady taking GOAT status from him

    I actually do think that Dan Marino was the best pure passer I've ever seen. Neither Brady nor Montana had an arm like Marino did, with the combination of his quick release, accuracy, and arm strength. Brady was better at reading defenses, though. It's a shame that Shula never really put a...

    Who is the Worst Owner in New England Sports?

    I was wondering why he built that new lighthouse at Gillette. 🤔

    Who is the Worst Owner in New England Sports?

    Well, it's the off season, so these are the things that get talked about, while waiting for some real news. IMO, there seems to be only one good owner at the moment (Wyc), but others may have different opinions.

    Looking at the Patriots 2024

    I suspect that with BB gone, the defense could regress.
