Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted August 26, 2004 Posted August 26, 2004 With Free Agency today, you don't get three years just to make it as a special teams ace. Not saying he is or isn't gonna get cut, but doubt he'll be kept strickly on how he might develp as special teamer. Coy Wire will be fine! Neither Tasker nor Pike we're Special teams Ace after 2 years... In the NFL, the 3rd year is the magic one.... If Wire doesn't cut it this year, he'll be out next year... But, as of right now, Imho, he'll make the team as our backup at SS, and might break out as a special teams ace... Keep the faith, people! Later, Pat 8007[/snapback]
Foxboro Mike Posted August 26, 2004 Posted August 26, 2004 I'm guessing the trend/anomoly response - guessing - referred to my words about the Pat's thin victory margins last year (no fortune cookie stuff please). Not an oblique reference to DB. But can a 6 pt ave. margin as you state withstand the NFL's seeming desire to juice things up? Do you think Brady can be effective in a shoot-out? 8096[/snapback] The thing that I like about the Pats (at least last year) was their ability to win any type of game: Shootout (vs TEN, 38-30; vs DEN, 30-26), low scoring game (vs. CLE 9-3, vs. MIA & DAL 12-0) - that's just off the top of my head. By extension, Brady can also be effective in any type of game as well. I know you're surprised by my response.
