    They are an ultra competitive locker room.

    Patriots war room right now.

    Smh man. We need to sign him to our active roster right now before he turns into Welker for 10 years. It's laughable, Belichick trolling so hard.

    Burkhead is most likely out for the game. Huge news.

    He was my biggest worry from them offensively against our defense. Contain James White and Dion Lewis.

    Gronk and Amendola will be active.

    I don't fear Gronk like I used too. Need to put a big corner on him.

    I like our chances against guys like Gronk/White more now solely because of the addition of Cunningham.

    It wasn't so much about whether or not NO was good or bad but rather the way NE went about stomping the **** out of them. It was almost clinical in it's execution. That's why I fully expect Belichick to have the answers to anything they (Texans) throw at his offense. He knows that the Texans are going to try to put pressure on Brady who is a statue back there and he already has the plays drawn up to counter this. On defense, he's facing a team with a rookie QB making his 2nd start - a team that has managed to score a whopping two (that's TWO) TDs this season. It's going to be a long day come Sunday.

    So James White will have 54 catches. Sweet...

    I just hope the offense looks better.

    Boy, preseason gone to waste. Thought that Watson was developing chemistry with him. Seems like the Texans coaches are raising the difficulty bar for their rookie QB even more.

    Still I think Watson is the unknown wild card that Bellichik can't completely prepare for. When he goes off-script ... he can show us some magic

    What worries me is that Gronk gets more yards receiving than our best receiver, and he is only 1 of 10 different guys who was thrown a ball against New Orleans. Even then he still got 116 yards. They use so many options our cornerbacks will have their work cut out for them. I'm hoping our running game can help us. I sure hope Foreman gets some breakout runs. I like his chances better than Miller. Blue gets some good ones once in awhile too, so hopefully he gets some action as well.

    don't see what will mccarron sell. Our routes are run 8 yards and turn around. no motion, disguises. You're just asking to get pressed, then the defender will just continue using his hands past 5 yards. refs won't call it every time. Now the defender can just break on the ball at will. =/

    No, no. It's a very complex offense. You wouldn't understand.
