    There's reasons for that. I've watched at least 85% of the Pats games since he's been drafted and he's usually invisible out there. And the times he is visible, it's usually for the wrong reasons.
    Without me, it's only "aweso".

    Points on NEP decisions I heard throughout yesterday.

    The new NFL has 5DBs on the field typically because the offenses are going more spread offenses with smaller WR. NEP did this when they got Moss. The NFL at the time was RB ground and pound. LB and heavy front 7s. NEP went, ok, we'll spread it out and put speedy WR against your LB. The NFL caught up and are now running that offense, but more importantly defending that offense.

    NEP just signed 2 TE who are like 6'3" 230lbs to lineup against 5'11" 190-200lb DBs. They signed the TOP blocked WR in Bourne. They signed Agholor who can push DBs/Safeties back, which opens up the middle a bit more. They are apparently in (or have been in on) Fournette and Carson. They might just be the highest screen game team in the NFL too.

    NEP are reinventing their offense to go against the opponents smaller defenses. How is a defense built to defend Buffalo's speedy offense going to defend NEP big, ground and pound defense? That's the possible mentality. Quickest way to improve an offense? Go against whatever the defenses are built for. No team will sign guys to defend 1 teams offensive strategy. They have 14-15 other games to play.

    This is what Bill and the Pats management have done so well for so long. It hasn’t worked every time but it is obviously a recipe for long term success. Super excited to see how these decisions work out for them this year.

    Soo.... Maybe this was said here yesterday and I missed it, but the Bears apparently signed Andy Dalton yesterday.

    Hmm. I can't imagine that's the only thing they do at the QB position (is it?!). I guess maybe a small step up from Trubisky and Foles ... but really just seems like more fo the same with a different color mop.

    They went after FitzMagic, but he wanted to know he'd be the starter and the Bears wouldn't agree to that.

    3-1st, 3rd, 2 roster players. Which would have included the 20th overall pick (Seattle doesn't have a 1st this yr)

    The number of masseuses who have filed lawsuits against Watson for sexual assault is up to seven, and now the NFL is starting it's own investigation.

    I wonder if Texas started all this to keep teams away from trying to acquire him LOL!

    In all seriousness though, this isn't looking good if there a many have come forward with complaints for Watson. I was just reading on The Athletic what they are accusing him of doing. Crazy stuff the way this is all coming to light right now.

    People joke about how much did Houston pay ppl to say this...I instantly though, how much was Houston hiding from the world to protect their star QB and now that they are pissed at him, it's coming out.

    I'm usually on the side of the accused, until it's multiple. He's def not the nicest man to women out there, but I wouldn't be surprised that the stories could be exaggerated, but where there's smoke there's fire.
