8000 Butterfingers Given to Boston

On Tuesday, 900 pounds of Butterfingers (8,000 bars) were delivered to Copley Square in Boston -- no doubt mocking Wes Welker's critical drop late in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl XLVI.

He'd be a good Panther. Haters got to blame somebody.

I like that people are defining "the fall" as making the playoffs 3 years in a row and getting to the super bowl in one of them. Once they start actually missing the playoffs, we can talk about them really falling. Yeah sure, they were one and done the last two years before that, but it wasn't as if they were a mediocre team those years that barely managed to make it anywhere at all (like the Broncos this year :P)

let's be real here... the patriots past SB wins were all mostly close games, too. winning in the playoffs is tough. they are far from done, and a super bowl loss doesn't tell us much about the immediate future of that team.

as KG pointed out, the Patriots have a number of high picks. They've got a few more years left in them...

    • https://wfnz.com/schedule/the-clubhouse-with-kyle-bailey/ Starts around 1100 I am not sure how connected Al Wallace is but he thinks bryce is going to get paid (50+) and it may happen within the first 4 games of this season.   He thinks the offense looked good last season.  Not really sure what the hell he was watching.
    • Waiting to see how the OT situation plays out is probably going to be a big part of the calculus.
    • If you draft players who can push the starters in competitions, then you have depth.  Gantt's focus is Week 1, 2026.  That is never my view.  if your focus is on talent alone, and if you do not consider the salary cap, then this is accurate.  If a player making $25m per season can be traded or not renewed because you have a player on a rookie contract who can do the job almost as well--before the maturation and experience occurs, then you may take a small step back for a moment so that you can leap forward later.  About Walker--LTs have done pretty well in Green Bay's system.  He is a good pass protector, and so is Freeling. About DT--they are often rotational.  Hunter will still play and he will improve with experience.  The WR field is not that crowded.  If you have 5 different WRs who can play, they usually do.  Hecht might have the best opportunity to take a starting job, and he is a fifth rounder.   So you look at the cap and the idea is to start as many on rookie contracts as possible.  Does that mean to start rookies day 1.  Nope.
