The pre-season looked pretty dismal this year. Yet, as bad as we got womped early in games when most of the starters were in, we actually dominated the 4th

***** Solid numerical correction, Randy. I certainly agree that there is a lot of talent on our team; and an enormous amount of talent in our coaching staff.

I realize all that, Frank. And I hope our 0-4 season was a fluke. But it certainly hasn't established any "winning ways" or inspired much confidence. I'm not

Re: Not very optimistic.

Frank — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 20:09:37 GMT

We have no way of knowing if this is the team we hoped for, or not. Coaches and players would never say it, but pre-season is not about winning. It's about

Fortunately we are not going into the regular season 0-4; we are going into the regular season 0-0. I certainly understand not feeling encouraged by the

Probably just BB trying to convince the rest of the league that the Pats are finally going to have an off year to get a little more edge. There are some

I'm not very optimistic either, Kevin. It's never easy, but going into the regular season 0-4 really sucks. This may not be the team we hoped for.

Not very optimistic.

I am not impressed with the things I've seen so far. However, I also know that preseason isn't usually a good tool to measure the team's true abilities. That

Like I said, thank God we open against Kansas City. At 0-4, I really don't think we have our act together yet. ... From: jtravers001

Surprise cuts?

Frank — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 12:05:27 GMT

Does anyone see any possible surprises in the cuts this weekend? I don't think any of us would be surprised to see Cassel go. Gutierrez wasn't great, but seems

Did anyone help themselves tonight?

Changes to preseason -Re: [patriotzip] Re: Broken rib for Welker?

kevin M — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 20:09:37 GMT

I really hate it when key players get hurt; in exhibition games, it is even more ridiculous. Welker had no business doing that job in a preseason game. I'm
