PATRIOTS RUMORS & GOSSIP
Why Wes Welker is Expendable
You saw the headline on this column and started throwing up in your mouth a little bit didn’t you? Yeah, writing that headline makes me a little nauseous, too.
But it’s true, at least in the eyes of the New England Patriots.
Swear at me all you want, or tell me I’m an idiot. It’s probably warranted. Yet, I promise you, if you look at the way the Patriots...

Patriots’ Brian Waters never actually planned on retiring?
The Patriots scooped former Pro Bowler Brian Waters in the preseason last season and he played better than maybe even they could have ever imagined, making the Pro Bowl on a New England line that was one of the best in the league and helped the Patriots make the Super Bowl. However, at 35 years of age, there was some doubt about whether or not he’d return for his 13th NFL season...

Chad Ochocinco still looks lost in the Patriots offense
Getty Images
According to Greg Bedard of the Boston Globe, it looks like New England Patriots wide receiver Chad Ochocinco is picking up right where he left off last season after fellow receiver Deion Branch had to tell him where to line up on one particular play on offense. He also jumped offsides and had to run a lap.
Ochocinco has been in the Patriots offense long enough that...

New England Patriots Unstable Offense Line Will Be New Experience
As NFL teams gather for the first time preparing for the 2012 season so do the New England Patriots. While improvements have been made to the NFL’s top offense, one usually stable part of that offense will be an issue in 2012.

Struggles continue for Patriots WR Chad Ochocinco
With the New England Patriots simply loaded with offensive weapons and stocked at the wide receiver position, veteran receiver Chad Ochocinco likely has very little room for error in order to remain with New England in the 2012 season. As the Patriots open their first round of OTA’s, Ochocinco reportedly looks as confused in the Patriots offensive sets as he did last season...

Lloyd fitting in nicely with McDaniels, Patriots
Brandon Lloyd might have left some money on the table to sign with the Patriots as an unrestricted free agent. But his transition to the new team is feeling like more of the same, given the 30-year-old veteran is being reinserted into the offense that made him a first-time Pro Bowler in Denver two seasons ago. "It helps because I'm familiar with the offense. I'm familiar...

Patriots’ Josh McDaniels looks forward to WR competition
New England Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels has been back with the team for a few months now, but spoke with the media for the first time Friday, at the opening of rookie camp.

You wouldn't know it, but Tom Brady's right shoulder has bothered him on most Sundays, dating back to when he took over the starting duties for the New England Patriots from Drew Bledsoe on that fateful day in 2001. One wouldn't have guessed it just by looking at his stats and games played, as he's never missed a start. Throw out his 2008 season as his knee was shredded...
