Ghost Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/scorecard/03/13/truth.rumors.nfl/index.html The Patriots have been so aggressive that one NFL observer has a theory: Bill Belichick is firing all his guns at once because he wants to go out on top. The folks at ProFootballTalk.com say the Pats' spending spree has all the makings of a run at one final Super Bowl before Belichick packs it in as a coach of the Pats. -- Boston Herald Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alk Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 theory = not fact Example: I have a theory that Smizzy is in fact a woman trapped in a man's body. There is no proof at least until Max comes forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faba Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 Pats have the salary cap room to spend money is the simple answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenScreen313 Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 they are spending so much b/c they have their core in check. they can afford to spend lots of money on skill positions, the Jets can't...yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCarl40 Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 Maybe they are getting all of these weapons so that Brady can win another SB so his newborn(s) don't think he's a big loser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny green balls Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 just out... Does Brady Want to 'Come Out' On Top? Highly placed sources in the Patriot front office have indicated that the Patriots recent buying binge may be unrelated to Bill Belichick's plans after all. The new scoop that has every major newspaper and wire service in a frenzy is that this may be Tom Brady's last year. According to an unnamed source, Brady wants to retire so that he can spend time with his two unborn children. Apparently, Brady hopes to be a "house husband" while his long term "confidant," Blaine McQueen, will serve as the couple's breadwinner. McQueen, 32, is a well-known hair stylist in the Boston area who has catered to big names including Ian McClellan. With McQueen's business taking off -- and the two surrogate mothers for the couple's children paid for -- speculation is rampant that Tom Brady wants one more ring before hanging up his cleats and calling an end to his faaaaaaaaaabulous career. --M.

PFSIKH Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 I know what you mean. But, maybe this is the reason why he is on a spending spree. Why? The misconception is that the Patriots are exhibiting behavior they have never before. AGain, they have shopped in Macy's before (Colvin). True or not, someone on KFFL said Colvin's contract absorbed a higher first year % then Adalius'. Wes Welker for 18 million over 5 years is hardly Earth shateering and Stawllworth's is a one year contract. I seriously doubt he sees Year 2 in Patriots' blue. I think Belichik's time is on the shorter end of the scale, but not quite yet. I think, this is PFSIKH speaking, that he values his place in history. I think he is gearing towards another run like the Patriots were on from 2001-2004. After that, I could defintely see him retiring to disappear.

If you think about it, this is the same team when the pats won their first two superbowls. If that doesn't scare, I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you talking personnel? I know the argument is dismissed, but this is a young team. The 2001 team was drastically different from the 2003 team. Smith cranking out a 1000, Brown with 100+ catches, Patten #2 and Milloy, Hamilton, Phifer, Otis and Ty leading the D. Two years later, Smith was closing his New England career and Branch, Givens, Wilson, Harrison, Vrabel and a few others had taken over leading roles. The team has age issues at LBer. Adalius is a step in the right direction. There is an obvious need for more youth. However, everywhere else is fairly young. Brady will be 30. Maroney is in his 2nd year. The five likely wideouts Stallworth, Gaffney, Caldwell, Welker and Washington are all 25-27. If Jackson is back from injury he will be 23. Watson and Thomas 26 and 23 respectively. On the OL, 8 of the 9 (4 of 5 starters) that saw significant time are under 30. The DL and DBs are similar. Seymour-Wilfork-Warren are 27 and younger. Assante-Hobbs-WIlson-Sanders and Gay if he returns, are 26 and younger. 15 of 22 starters are younger then 30 entering 2007. This team is built to win for awhile. With Brady behind center, they have no problems at the most important position. If they can mix in some youth at LBer to be ready by the time Vrabel and Adalius become too old, there is no reason they should not be contenders, serious contenders for the next 5 years at the very least.

If you guys had Thomas and Stallworth, I think the Pats would of won the superbowl for sure. Assante Samuel is one the best CB;s in the league, Thomas could play any position in the front 7, Rodney lost a step because of injuries. The Pats defense would def be ranked better then the defense of 2001. With the offense getting deep threats, that should open up the running game, especially with the talented OL the Pats have.

Gainzo Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/scorecard/03/13/truth.rumors.nfl/index.html The Pats go on a so called "spending spree" and everyone freaks out. Too funny. What is also funny is that my season tickets have remained at the same price for the last 3 seasons. Can Jets fans say the same?
