Rob Gronkowski is with WWE now. Come on Rob, really? I can just see Rob now, out there in his little panties, running around in the ring.😂

The last pic I've seen of Gronk, he's lost a lot of weight and muscle tone. Obviously he has no interest of playing in the NFL again.

You're right, i'm not sure what he's going to do in the WWE other than playful clowning around. Certainly he's not going to perform any tough wrestling moves.

What is this I see about Bill looking at Cam for QB?!

There's going to be a lot of potential QB rumors flying around out there when it comes to the Patriots.

Belichick signing Cam would be a shocker.

I’d rather Cam then Dalton. I hope he just sticks with Stidham though, I think he wants to, I bet he thinks he can make the playoffs and do just as good with anyone at QB. Bill is going to fall flat on his face I think, I’m going to laugh at a Kraft and Belichicks annoyance at losing too

everyone saying brady is past it might want to consider bill is past it too.

He cant draft for shit and he made a bunch of stupid coaching mistakes in the last few years.

He assumed tom was coming back like a whipped puppy and has done nothing this off season at any position except lose guys.
Last year he thought gronk was coming back and we had to play with no tight end , this year no tight ends and no QB either

Ever since Cam made a "business decision" and decided to not dive on that fumble during the SB, he became a QB I would never want.

I cannot stand Cam Newton however from a capable QB standpoint I feel Dalton is a straight up loser, not personality wise but playing wise. Newton is better but definitely nothing special and a selfish player too. I hope they just go with Stidham really

That and other things Cam has done is what would make Belichick signing him a shocker.

Belichick normally doesn't tolerate players such as that. He made an exception with Randy Moss because many wide receivers are prima donnas, and Moss at the time was great. I can't see Belichick accepting that type of player in a QB.

Of course sometimes desperation make people do strange things, so we'll see what happens.

Any guesses on if they will draft a QB?

I'm going to guess in the 6th round.

erikthredd · March 22, 2020 10:09AM

@thisistheshow said:

I would think not,not after they just spent a 4th on Stidham and still have Kessler under contract. They've got a lot of holes to fill on this roster especially after this past week in free agency.

perkdog · March 22, 2020 12:42PM

They brought back Brian Hoyer 🙄

erikthredd · March 22, 2020 1:39PM

Meh. I'd rather see what Stidham could do as the starter over Hoyer at this point.

Ofcourse, even if the lose out it will be beneficial for the ‘21 Draft for Lawrence

thisistheshow · March 22, 2020 9:29PM

If they truly believe Stidham is the guy, I would not mind having Hoyer named the starter. But if they are unsure on Stidham, I would like to see him thrown to the wolves so to speak.

Me too. His passing looked promising during the preseason but that pick 6 in mop-up duty in his debut was definitely an ugly reminder he has a long way to go.
I'm expecting all of the so-called draft pundits to list QB,TE & LB as their biggest needs,hopefully BB actually grabs a TE this time.

perkdog · March 23, 2020 12:58PM

Gostkowski finally released. About time

erikthredd · March 23, 2020 1:47PM

He was pretty much on borrowed time those last 2-3 years anyways. Now Bill gets to use one of his 3rds on a Kicker.

@perkdog said:

don't even get me started on this guy! He had some sort of dirt on Bill B to rate the extra special treatment the last few years

BillJones · March 24, 2020 9:25AM

If Belichick doesn’t find any more receivers, it won’t matter who he signs.

That was really the issue at the end of last season.

Belichick is going down in flames this upcoming season. Unfortunately he is taking the Patriots right down with him.

We are going to see how talented he really is, won’t we?

Yes, we will see who was more important. Brady or Bill! I just hope we have Football!

thisistheshow · March 25, 2020 8:04PM

Even if the season starts on time, pre-season things like scouting and the draft are being affected. I would expect Belichick to possibly find advantages this season somehow. I am looking forward to seeing the team post Brady.

Trying to stay positive.😬

Buks all the way in 2020! Brady picked the right team.

They definitely have a better offense than the pathetic unit Belichick has. The Bucs D and OL beg to differ about them going all the way though

tommyrusty7 · March 26, 2020 6:19AM

Well, you are probably right about that but I would love to see it. Brady deservers to win another title.

Personally for me it’s Patriots first and Brady second BUT to spite Belichick I’d like to see Brady win it this year and Belichick fall flat on his face with a 4-12 type record.

tommyrusty7 · March 26, 2020 11:47AM

I feel exactly the same way.I have been a Patriots fan since my friend Butch was their quarterback. I wish he could have lived long enough to see what they have accomplished.

We did for a while but went our separate ways like most people in life do. There are only a few of us left now that I went to school with and dwindling fast.

Am I correct in thinking that he was the first Patriots QB?

tommyrusty7 · March 29, 2020 1:21PM

Yes he was.

erikthredd · April 3, 2020 6:07AM

Belichick's original Browns notes from 1991 on how to build an offense popped up recently and not much has changed since then. It's pretty crazy that who he wanted at QB described Brady to a tee and that was nine years before Brady was drafted when he was just 14yrs old at the time.

I especially liked the "Can use a slightly dumber guy who is a good athlete" from the Offensive Line section. You just know that there will be some of his former/current O-linemen wondering if they're that guy after reading this lol.
