I watched highlights and liked what I saw. And then watching the post game press conference made me feel even better. DT obviously is very happy to be a Patriot.

I’m very happy he is too, I really hope the rookie and Gordon works out. Think about 3 Physical Receivers like that plus Edelman! We could have the best WR corps in the league
I watched the first three quarters and agree with Perk that Thomas,barring injury,is going to look great in this offense. I also think that Stidham has done enough during this preseason to likely make Hoyer expendable.
I think this Pats rookie class with Harry,Harris,Winovich,Williams,Meyers,Stidham & Bailey could turn out to be one of the better rookie groups here in years. Getting Wynn & Bentley back should be huge as well.
The only area I'd be worried about to start the season is the Oline with basically a rookie left tackle in Wynn,who to his credit has played well so far, and center David Andrews whose season and possibly career being over with blood clots in his lung.
BB wasted no time though by trading for three different Olinemen over the past few days:
sent a 4th to the Ravens for Guard Jermaine Eluemunor
sent a 6th to the Cardinals for Tackle Korey Cunningham
sent a 2020 6th to the Bills for Center Russell Bodine
With roster cuts down to the 53 man roster by tomorrow afternoon you gotta think that all three players are making the team after giving up picks for them.
BB also traded 2nd year CB Duke Dawson & a 2020 7th to the Broncos for a 2020 6th.
Wow,Demaryius Thomas just got released. There's a possibility that he gets re-signed after week 1 so his contract isn't guaranteed. David Andrews & Derek Rivers are both done for the season.

Reports saying he doesn't have to clear waivers, and may be back as early as Monday...

I saw that. Doing it this way allows them to use that roster spot on someone going to IR that can return at some point during the season. Not guaranteeing his contract makes sense to for a guy coming back from an achilles injury. Either way I hope he sticks around.
WEEI is reporting the Pats are interested in LeSean McCoy. Please let this be fake news,I want no part of that guy in NE. Supposedly the Pats,Chiefs,Eagles & Chargers are all interested in possibly signing him.
I wasn't expecting Harry to come in and be a 1K type player in year one but possibly just another guy that the defense had to account for opening up a favorable matchup elsewhere. I will say though that I'd rather have Harry on IR with Thomas still in this offense over a healthy Harry and Thomas playing for some other team.

Agreed! I just liked the idea of 3 Big WR’s going at once but yea D Thomas is more important. I wonder if Harry needed more time to learn the system...
Let's see watch the Arizona/Detroit OT or watch the Pat's/Steeler's...….no brainer.....I don't even consider the Cardinal's or the Lion's to be NFL quality.

prior to this season, i really thought there was going to be a seismic shift in the AFC hierarchy
but after the way the Pats looked in the first half (on BOTH sides of the ball) and the acquisition of AB, i think there's a very good chance that one of Brady's fingers will no longer feel neglected come next February
The last touchdown made "Th steel curtain" look like wet tissue paper. That was an embarrassing play for the Steelers.
Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?
The big question is, why is Brady still out there on a 30 to 3 game? Why risk it? It's a thing about the Brady - Belichick relationship I will never understand.

New Hampshire is legit no joke for drug charges, he would have been in less trouble if he shot a sign with a shotgun out his car window going 90 down the highway than getting caught with Coke 😆
Sad story.
I didn't see the game. Checking out highlights. Any takeaways?

Dare I say imagine if we had Gronk on this offense?
No more Shady McCoy in Buffalo.

Hoyer did end up getting cut,so far he & Berrios are the two notable Pats cuts.

Yea I’m all set with McCoy, he wouldn’t last under Bill anyways
McCoy reunited with Andy Reid in KC.

Just in time to mess up people’s fantasy teams 😂
Thomas is re-signing with the Pats and Harry is going on the 8 week IR.

Not happy about Harry but D Thomas signed is great news.
How do you guys feel about N'Keal ? I am still positive.
Edit to add: By positive, I mean I am looking for him to still be a late season/playoff contributor.
I try not to get attached to Patriot Players since they could get cut by Belichick on any given moment 🤷♂️
Very true......

Hopefully DT can mentor/help/influence Harry. They have some overlap in their games.
Agreed! I just liked the idea of 3 Big WR’s going at once but yea D Thomas is more important. I wonder if Harry needed more time to learn the system...
Big Night tonight!!! GO PATS!!!!
Belichick should troll the Steelers by sending Antonio Brown out for the coin flip.

The game is a little past Brady's bedtime but hopefully the old fella can stay awake that late.
https://www.foxnews.com/sports/rob-gronkowski-video-news-will-drop-tomorrow.amp 🤷♂️
Why is D Thomas inactive?
We don’t get AB till next week!
Let's see watch the Arizona/Detroit OT or watch the Pat's/Steeler's...….no brainer.....I don't even consider the Cardinal's or the Lion's to be NFL quality.
Just wondering if all the Antonio Brown chit this week might distract from the Patriots effort tonight?
I'm not saying that it will, but just wondering if it might, especially to the wide receivers.
Not a chance. You know better than that Steve, your Hero Big Bill keeps everyone on topic and that’s the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Jon please visit this thread often 😂
You're probably right.
Here we go!
Gordon looks jacked and focused 💪👍
Nice having him back 🏈🏈🏈 TD!
The Pat's just keep on rolling.
Forgot about Dorsett 🤷♂️

Patriots putting on a clinic out there.
The last touchdown made "Th steel curtain" look like wet tissue paper. That was an embarrassing play for the Steelers.
Kind of warms the cockels of my heart seeing Little Ben and the Tin Foils looking sooooooooooo pathetic!!
The big question is, why is Brady still out there on a 30 to 3 game? Why risk it? It's a thing about the Brady - Belichick relationship I will never understand.
1-0 - good start 🏈
Well boys, looks like we are off to the races.
Those shotgun snaps were a bit wobbly, other than that we look good.
