    Troy Brown won that AFC title game for the Pats. Punt return for TD, lateraled a blocked kick on a return that eventually went for a TD, caught like 9 passes. Brown never got the credit he deserved in his career, even here in Boston. He was an excellent player.
    PS: No reporter in the Pats' locker room after the game would've bet a nickel Brady would start the Super Bowl. His leg had so many ice bags on it he looked like he'd stolen it from the Michelin Man.

    Hmmmm hows he gonna spin this one?? “That’s my going rate for [no-showing]”?

    My follow up “how many times in your life have you been paid hundreds of thousands and you didn’t show up”?

    “So this is the only time in your life correct?”

    In fairness, it turns out at the exact moment of each scheduled event, his copper socks were in the wash and he couldn't get out of bed.

    Can't figure Cam Newton going unsigned so far. But could it be that a lot of GMs and coaches just think he's a little bit too, I don't know, kind of in outer space sometimes? The headscarves probably didn't help.
    By the way, how did the Panthers cut Newton, the Bengals cut Dalton, the Bucs cut Winston but the Jaguars got the Bears to give up a fourth-rounder for Foles?

    Dalton and Winston are plausible as backups who can step into the starting role immediately. Leaving aside his asking price, Cam is an MVP who is going to create controversy the minute he arrive because of his status.

    "Look, having welfare — my uncle was a great professor and social scientist and sociologist, Dr. John Favre at MIT; good genes, very good genes, okay, very smart, the University of Southern Mississippi, very good, very smart — you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, okay, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the world — it’s true! — but when you're a conservative Republican they try — oh, do they do a number — that’s why I always start off: Went to USM, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, won a Super Bowl — you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged — but you look at the nonprofit deal, the thing that really bothers me — it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are (welfare is controversial); my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was right — who would have thought?), but when you look at what's going on with the four no-shows — now it used to be three, now it’s four — but when it was three and even now, I would have said it's all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years — but the agents are great negotiators, the Giants are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us."

    The only way Dak feels pressure from Dalton is in practice if he is switched to linebacker.

    Have to think that Teddy Bridgewater's situation influenced Dalton's decision. And Jones's decision.
