Raji On The Radar

B.J.Raji in a Pats uniform. I can dream right? Scotty Dukes and I always attend the Patriots Drafy Party at Gillette Stadium. A great take by the way if you can make it. This year I will not be in attendance due to a family celebration. Although I will be hoping with my toes crossed that the Pats get a chance to flirt with the idea of bringing BJ aboard. As of late he is projected to go as early as pick #8 in the first round. Nice work if you can get it.

The Pats have the 23rd selection in the opening round. All hope is not lost though, after they deal off Cassel to Detroit or Kansas City it would be possible. Possible. Bill Belichick never does what I expect or want for that matter. So why start now? The Pats are never high on going top 5 anyway due to the signing bonuses. We'll get Darry Beckwith. Just a guess from Nostradumbass.

6'2'', 338 lbs, 5.1 40YD - I'll take it. Ron Brace is available too by the way. I know, I am a total homer. We'll see on April 25th, a lot could happen between now and then, Manny might even get a job.

To Tom or Not To Tom, That Is The Question

Should we rest him for one more week? With the Kansas City Chiefs coming into town this weekend and Tom Brady still a little banged up, how about we rest him for another week. Don’t think Matt Cassel can get the job done? Neither do I, but I think Kevin O’Connell can and he should get the snap.

Now, before you get all freaked out on me and tell me that I am just some whack job behind a blog that doesn’t know the first thing about Patriots football, here me out. (By the way, the whack job part, may not be far off.)

Last year, the Kansas City Chiefs were 4-12. In the pre-season this year they are 2-2. There is a quarterback controversy, in that they don’t know who they’ll be starting because they all suck. Larry Johnson isn’t what he used to be and besides, our defense can shoulder that burden if he comes out firing on all cylinders by some miracle.

So the real question mark, without Brady in the line-up would be the offense and whether or not Kevin O’Connell (who should start) can lead the charge against the Chiefs defense. What then of the Chiefs defense?

Last year, the Chiefs defense was the 13th ranked defense in the NFL. They gave up nearly 21 points per game, 130 rushing yds/game, 188 passing yds/game and 320 total yds/game. Let’s be realistic, these are not the ’07 Detroit Lions who ranked last in the league in overall defense, but they are also not the Steelers.

The Chiefs defense is a middle of the road crew of young guys who are hungry to get better, but that is, they need to get better.

I am not saying Kevin O’Connell and our offense would eat them alive, but I think we could squeak out a victory. Isn’t that all we need from the Patriots? A win? Give Tom Brady one extra week to heal and get ready for the Jets, after all, that’s gonna be a shoot out with Brett Favre. Hahahahahaahaha!!

No Standing At Gillette? HA HA!!

As if the Kansas City Chiefs weren't already the lamest organization in the NFL, now they have released a Fan Code of Conduct. One of the rules while at Arrowhead Stadium is NO STANDING. I kid you not. No standing is a rule on the Fan Code of Conduct.

I can't tell you if there is a Fan Code of Conduct for Gillette or not, but I can tell you that if they started to try and enforce a no standing rule, the Ya Dude's in the stands would probably dump their beers on the security guard and piss on the seat. Then they'd stand up and yell out...Tommy Brady is gonna kick your ass James Horton, light 'em up Tommy!!
Good news is we play the Chiefs in week #1. We need to come up with something for all the fans at Gillette to do to taunt the KC Chiefs and make fun of their no standing rule. Any suggestions? Comment them now.
