Patriots Waive Haynesworth

Blowing assignments for the stat sheet has been Haynesworth's motto even in Tennessee. Dude is full of it, and off the field, is a lying scumbag who paralyzed someone AND refused to pay back a loan of millions, among other things.

He looked awful. The Giants ran a play right at him and he got pushed out of position, then was seen getting yelled at by the coaches and wasn't seen again. Bottom line is he's just really not a good player. The Pats defense is awful so that says a lot if they've seen enough.

We should sign him for $41 mil.

I was thinking Stallworth could fit well up there when we cut him

The Pats problem is their defense, it seems that Tom Brady and the offense cannot carry the entire team. Their DBs are awful, their MLB is out with an injury, they have not run or pass defense whatsoever. As I said, the Pats have bigger problems than AH.

I completely agree, but thats irrelevent to them seeing Stallworth as an upgrade over Ochocinco for them (purely my speculation). Theres nothing they can really do about there defense at this point but it doesnt mean they should just forget about fixing their other problems.

Bill Belicheck is suffering from Brian Billick Syndrome.

- A former genius coordinator who serves as a great head coach but struggles to get the side of the ball he specializes in to work up to his standards. Example, Brian Billick was a top notch offensive coordinator in Minnesota but struggled to get the Ravens in the top half of the league when it came to offense.

Shanahan has a little of this going on right now with a strong defense and an anemic offense.

Frankly, he lasted about a month longer than I expected he would in New England...

They are not, but they don't keep players around to teach them a lesson.

Eagles or Raiders.

After the money he stole, he realizes he doesn't have to work ever again. There's no motivation to get in shape and doesn't want to get hurt.

They don't ever overpay for risky players, which I guess is like not really making a personnel mistake. Fat Albert cost them next to nothing and wasn't a distraction so the franchise "won."
