Exempt list or not, the guys a whack job and a legit next level perv. I don't know that BB will be able to move the dial in the right direction with this guy. We shall see.

As has been pointed out many times the question with Allen was properly consistency more than accuracy. And decision making. He was always capable of making accurate major league throws. He just needed to get it down to where it was good enuf to fully sustain drives. In preseason and in last Sunday's game he gave strong evidence that he is getting there. Something that really stands out to me is the improvement in his short passing game, including to RBs. It was thought (hoped) that this was just a detail with his mechanics that could be coached out. Apparently this appears to have been the right assessment. Another question was his ability to apply the right amount of touch to those passes that require it, a typical issue for guys with huge arms. To Sweeney in preseason, to Beasley with the throw that bounced off his helmet, with the game winning back shoulder toss to Brown, which combined accuracy, touch and the ability to make a crucial post snap read of the coverage, he looks to be coming along very nicely. If he continues to refine his skills and execute in this way it won't be long before his progress starts to garner a lot of attention league wide. If he does it in a big media market on Sunday the football world at large will start quickly catching up with Bills fans who obviously have a more singular focus and have been eye-balling his every move from the get go.

Sorry for him. He's a good kid and he's going to be a good QB IMO.

Dolphins and Jets will be picking 1 and 2 in 2020. Can hardly wait to laugh when they face off this year. Battle of Titans lol. Also do doctors advise against playing contact sports with mono? Spleen injury?

Nice plan. I wonder how Antonio will like being a decoy with limited targets instead of the go to guy. And I wonder what level headed Antonio will have to say when Brady gives him an earful after he's not where he's supposed to be. Brown has never played in a system like the Patriot's where he's just another cog in the machine. An O where the QB can buy all sorts of time (like Ben) while AB improvises is better suited to what he does best. Ironically he would have been better off in Oakland with David Carr IMO. I see a big risk of fail here.

Rape is bad, but the timing couldn't have been better. He should be suspended just for what he did to the English language.

Thank you. Whether you call it circumstantial or corroborative evidence, I confess to being surprised that a conviction can occur solely on the basis of the complainant's affirmations. The reason is that I have a hard time regarding such assertions as constituting evidence as such and, if that is correct, it would follow that a criminal conviction cannot proceed in the absence of evidence. Now maybe that's where I'm wrong. Maybe the complainant's allegations are in criminal law and in procedure regarded as evidence albeit rarely, if ever, of sufficient weight to displace the legal presumption of innocence.

Testimony alone, or testimony together with circumstantial evidence? I would be surprised if a plaintiff's assertion could by itself suffice under any circumstances, assuming a general denial by the accused, but I don't know about criminal law and stand to be corrected.

True, but if this thing completely unravels he should answer some questions regarding his judgement and exactly what he was thinking. Not that he will of course.

Apparently his guarantees are voided if he performs any act that undermines respect for the team, amongst other reputational issues. It's a pretty low bar in the case of the Patriots but based on his own admissions who knows he may just have met it.

Sad for him. Great young player. Some guys have all the talent but somehow aren't cut out to play this game. At least he just got paid. Mike Mac, the gift that keeps on giving.

Sure. But mostly as in Tom Brady.

I believe the DT trade is a done deal. I don't know if the Pats bounce Brown over this incident but I think it's only a matter of time before they part company at some point this year. So if Gordon falls off the wagon again Pats will be heading into the playoffs with Edelman, Dorsett and two rookie receivers. And I think Michel averaged like 1 yard per carry against the Steelers Sunday night.

Sounds like the seed was planted on her neck. And if he cleverly snuck up on her, johnson in hand, how is that consensual? Betcha it's all fist bumps instead of high fives in NE from now on.

Dolphins will give the Patriots more touchdowns than they can handle.

So that prevent D call was all that stupid cornerback's fault. Glad Bill was able to clear that up.

I had toyed with the idea that the Brown TD pass was an adjustment dictated by the coverage but opted instead for the ball having been under thrown. Just didn't think Allen was there yet. If as the writer says it was a good read with perfect execution then that's huge and one of the game's most important takeaways IMO. That's something only good passers can do.

Dude is strong. He bad.

Wow Deshaun Watson.

I don't see this working out in NE and I'm a little surprised BB went in this direction. In their offence everybody, including future HOFmers, have a specific assignment on every snap that they are held to a high standard to execute flawlessly. It is a well oiled machine in which each player is just another cog. They don't improvise. AB is not that kind of player and has never played in that kind of system or with that kind of QB. The Pats are not changing their offensive philosophy to accommodate AB. AB isn't changing either IMO (he can't). They better hope Gordon does not fall off the wagon because if both are gone by year end that will be a great equalizer heading into the playoffs.

I like Mongo. Badass.

Idk. On D they have a couple of very bad corners and nothing coming off the edge. Their starting OLB is out for the year. On O their make shift line is very suspect (Kalil was dreadful yesterday), their receivers are second tier, and I don't trust google eyes to bring Darnold along. They've got Bell and Crowder. Ununwa is talented but made of glass. They are already at risk of falling apart IMO. Not Dolphin bad, but bad nevertheless. Kudos to Mosely. What a player. If he's out they are done like dinner.

I think he's more off his rocker than Antonio Brown.

I think that google eyed zombie will turn them into a raging dumpster fire.

Ok. Rebuilding since 1969.
