    Let’s give Nuk some credit even if we don’t get him. He’s publicly telling the Texans to make a move.

    Sorry not sorry but Marcus Gilchrist needs to cop up that jersey

    Belichick's "I'll show you" strategy finally bit him in the butt. I'm not so sure it would have made a difference. Foles was playing out of his mind. No defense for the perfect throw and that's what Foles was doing all game. Their defense had been a wreck all season. Nearly cost them vs Jacksonville and got them in the SB.

    Tommy can on
    Yep. Pretty cool to see. Shows he wants to win. Starting to think Butler will end up a Texan. Where else besides Pittsburgh would be more appealing to get revenge on the Pats? You know he wants to stay in the AFC to get a shot at them. Would rather Trumaine still but sign Malcom & Joseph back on a 1 year contract, draft a CB in the 3rd & our CB room suddenly doesn't look so bleak.

    I’d rather Trumaine as well but think he’s a longer shot

    Did you see Rowe get burned in the first half? No doubt Butler would have made a difference. I will take the cheaper of Butler/Trumaine along with Joyner. Throw the rest of money at Solder.

    Yep he was getting roasted.. Just not sure the outcome of the game changes. We'll never know.

    That'd be a nice free agency. Going to be tough to pry away Solder. I wonder just how much confidence the FO has in Davenport at LT?

    Any news on Davenport? Any chance he's a factor in the tackle convo for next year?

    I'd rather have Trumaine as well but will be happy if we get Butler at a cheaper price along with Joyner.

    If Belichek keeps to form, he will let Solder go. Nate is the perfect candidate for "rather let them go a year early rather than a year late." Davenport should be prepped for the RT position.

    Why would the defense like O'Brien?

    I mean, he didn't have to do it.

    My friend on the Texans left the team in the off season. I know OB was truly liked by almost all of the players.

    On that note has anyone heard anything about Derek Newton? Been out a year and a half and while not a great tackle he was better than anything we had last year

    He may never play again. If we are hoping for Newton to do anything, we will not make the playoffs.
