ESPN: Without Tom Brady, Patriots-Cowboys meeting not the same

[DallasDomination]

Who's that chick on espn making herself look like a fool right now? The lawyer is completely destroying her.

I like how Rogah is all about the nitty gritty details and devils advocating for Brady, but is all "where there's smoke...." about Hardy.

that's because he has a "soft spot" for the Pats. A REALLY HUGE soft spot.

Here's another term used by that former Patriot employee to describe himself... "The Deflator".

He'll ignore you. He dismisses all evidence against the Pats, it's amazing.

Look there is no way in hell the NFL would be out to get the Pats if they didn't do anything wrong. Kraft, Brady, and the Pats are a huge part of this league. They aren't going to aimlessly punish someone without wrong doing.

Anybody who thinks Brady didn't himself or have someone tamper with the balls is quite frankly an idiot.

The Pats don't have a whole lot of skill position players. That is an excellent thing because Gronkowski destroys in the middle of the field where we've been weakest for a decade at this point. There Oline is pretty good so coverage will be key. Coverage on the nickel should be better now that Jones, Mo, and Patmon are the depth. Lee of course shines in coverage.

On defense, the pats could really struggle.

The front 7 is very uninspiring as are those corners. I like our guys in the matchup of interior linemen especially now that Wilfork is gone.

Need we reminding that if Brady does in fact not play this game, our team is still susceptible to becoming the victim of a backup QB's superbowl mvp-like performance. Do you remember how Colt McCoy embarrassed us last year?

nope,mediocre QBs have their best games against us mainly because of the lack of pass rush,hopefully hardy and gregory will have a big impact this year

But you're not going to just go ahead and circle this game on the calendar as a win are you? I anticipate our pass rushing in this game to be a thing of beauty no matter who is tossing the rock for the Deflatriots. Brady is going to either wish he didn't or be glad he didn't play this game.

I don't think this line is going to succumb to repeated 0 blitzes like that again. That wasn't about McCoy as much although he did ultimately make plays as much as Haslett's scheme destroying our pass protection.

I believe McCoy benefitted from our lack of pass rush but he is the one the shredded our secondary. Like you, I don't believe he will have a repeat performance vs our Boys. I'm more focused on immediate matters in the regular season w/o the services of RoMac or Hardy. That Pats game I look forward to welcoming those brothers back.

It'll be a miracle if they even win the fight to get this heard in Manhattan instead of Minnesota. The are 2 compelling reasons why the first-to-file rule doesn't apply. (1) The 2 parties filed their motions on the same day, and (2) courts have consistently ruled that first-to-file does not apply to pre-emptive strikes like the NFL did.

Well this is weird isn't it, Mr. Wizard?

If you want to disagree with a member then do so civilly. Insulting a member and continued harassing and stalking a member is going to get those involved benched the next time we see it. This is fair warning to those involved who understand whom I'm addressing. If the shoe fits then wear it.
