Desperate Pats need Haynesworth

Desperate? After one lousy preseason game?

correction...Pats NEED welker....

Wow.......yep that's about it.........Wow.

Big Albert?, all this time I thought his name was Fat Albert

What? Haynesworth is going to solve the O line weaknesses? I don't think so.

Desperate Pats need Haynesworth



then they are screwed

And since we're talking about "FAT ALBERT" where is his picture?!? No wide lenses out there?

It's that sick and disgusting P.C. world we live in!

The Hoodie will use this to fire up the team. They need a disappointing performance now and then to remind them that they have to actually work against some teams. In this case, it didn't even cost them a real game to get the wake-up call.

The Pats have been known to sandbag, playing just well enough to win without looking very good, and then they turn it on for a big game a few weeks later.

And, hidden behind the "what's wrong with the Patriots?" question is "Just how good IS this Detroit team?"

Exactly. Just because New England slept walked through 1 lousy pre-season game, the sky is now falling?

Puh-leeeze

If Stafford stays healthy all year they are a 10 win team

I feel I can safely say without hyperbole that this article is the dumbest thing ever written since.

Just wait 'til we get our Haynesworth on you!

Even the picture they chose is ominous:

Tom Brady running for his life from the Buffalo Bills.

I've said the same things at other times and I've been blasted by others for it. I agree with you however. The team wasn't prepared to play Detroit in "their Super Bowl" and it showed. No big deal, the game doesn't count and everyone on the team realizes you have tp bring it every week, no matter how lowly the opponent or you will get beat.

As for a few observations about the game;

Stafford looked very good against the vanilla defense the Pats presented him. If the kid can stay healthy, he will win some games for them.

The Detroit D-line is very good should cause a lot of sleepless nights for the O coordinators who have games against the Lions this year.

The Suh kid is a beast, but he is flirting with the dark side. I've heard this said about him plenty, but haven't had the opportunity to watch him until Sat. night. The whole Detroit D-line seemed bent on taking the late hit/cheap shot route throughout the game and that type of crap could come back to haunt them (attention Mr Stafford, I'd keep your head on a swivel if I were you).

If Detroit can play as well as they did against New England all season, I think they have a shot at one of the wild cards. If Green Bay was in a different division, I'd say they had a shot at a division title.

If Suh stays healthy all year, and doesn't get arrested for manslaughter during a game, the Lions could be more dangerous than that. They could.....go.....all....the.....way!

No, not really. Teams that haven't been to the playoffs for a long time usually go one-and-done. But they are going to make a statement.

It was one game and the Lions front four pounded Brady without having to Blitz. So, Brady had a bad game, as he repeatedly does when pressured with just four pass rushers.

Yeah he can't just keep throwing quarterbacks down by their helmet and facemask and punching people like Mankins... Goodell will make Suh his guinea pig.. so sad though.. such a watered down league now.
