Fins on the Horizon: Impressions of Pats Last Preseason Game
Ryan Mallett simply looked bad and what's more his body language was dreadful. He made zero good throws in his time out there and spent the night glaring at and yelling at his receivers. WTF? This the NFL, kid. You make your own breaks and if you can't move the team you're working at Sears. Sears sucks. You may be cut this upcoming week, and if that happens some other club will pick you up certainly. Try to learn from your mistakes, because you have serious, serious ability (physical) and a decent football brain. There are tens of millions of dollars at stake. Try to act like it.
===========
Is Deion Branch hurt or was he simply taking it easy in the preseason? I don't know. I have faith in the man. He's earned that much.
===========
What a(nother) special teams shitshow. What the hell is going on with the kick units? Unacceptable. Unacceptable. Gotta be fixed in a week, and Coach Belichick has more important things to do than spend 20 hours out of the coming week working on punt and kick coverage. This can cost the team at least two ballgames this season.
===========
You're a good man, 85. It could have been pretty fucking awesome. But I imagine you won't make the roster. What comes next? Hopefully you have about $30m in the bank from all those fat contracts to cushion the blow. Remember what went down with Tiki Barber: a big name only goes so far with the media. Those fucking people in the media usually work their asses off, and you need to, too, to have a career there. I wish you good luck, truly, if this is the end. It was great watching you ball back at OSU and in Cincy. Special.
===========
Does Coach Scarnecchia deserve a spot in the Patriots Hall of Fame? Yes, he certainly does. One of the greatest assistant coaches in the history of football should be, imo, honored by the Kraft family as soon as possible for his many years of service. What a vital figure in the history of the Pats.
===========
Safety play is a major issue. Barrett picked up an interference call. The safety position is the number one question mark for this team.
===========
Ras-I Dowling can obviously be a special cornerback in the NFL. UVA has produced a ton of fine football players in the last two decades. He appears to be the next in a long line.
===========
Giants note of interest: Zak DeOssie is now a five year vet. His Dad, former Boston College Eagle and a member of the Doug Flutie teams there, Steve DeOssie, was an ass kicker in the NFL for twelve seasons. Almost halfway there, Zak. Unbelievable but true. Congrats. Keep working hard.
===========
The men who buy in, stay. Those who don't, leave.
===========
To paraphrase Chuckles Barkley from way back: "Don't know much about the Fins. I know they're in trouble."
