They are road favorites over the Dolphins on a Monday Night game this week. Go make yourself a fortune with the fish if you really believe Miami's a better team ... because if they can't beat New England, on the road, at night, in humid weather .. they'll get smoked at Foxboro in the winter later in the year.

The Texans are 3 point road favorites against the friggen Raiders. There cheating asses are always 8-8.

No one cares.

The Pats are frauds and you know it. The rest of that schedule is going to eat that defense alive and you know it. Moss will be gone after this year and you'll be making a million ignorant/pointless threads about the Broncos instead and you know it. Find something else to do FFS.

Odds on where Moss plays next season:

Patriots: 3/5
Vikings: 2/1
Broncos: 7/2
Eagles: 5/1
Field: 8/1

Wait, the Pats are an offensive juggernaut? Does that exclude games where they actually have to play a top NFL defense? I think there are more than a few college football teams that wouldn't have trouble hanging 30 on the Bills and then not have to sweat out the closing minutes against quite possibly the worst team in football this year.

how does Moss fit in on the Eagles?

DJax is our down the field threat.

Maclin is the ****.

Avant is our slot guy & we have Riley Cooper as our #4. As much as I love Avant and Coop... I'd take Moss over them... but Moss isnt going to want to go to a team and be the #3 slot reciever...

Funny how a certain Randy Moss was shut down in the 1st half by one player, Vontae Davis. There was no double-teaming. Of course the way the 2nd-half played out, the offense wasn't even needed.

Randy Moss played 60 minutes last night. The Patriots receiver walked off the field with a smile, and he was particularly chipper in the locker room, chatting with reporters even more than usual.

So, he was a big target in the Patriots 41-14 beat-down of the Dolphins, right? Actually, no.

Moss had exactly zero catches against the Dolphins. It was the first time in his Patriots career.

He was targeted just once by Tom Brady. And really, it seemed like the Pats QB didn’t even look at him.

Asked in the locker room about having no catches, Moss said with a smile, “It’s called a game plan.”

Nice to see we have fantasy football nerds in here... and someone who doesn't realize that whenever you have a deep safety shading to your side - the deep ball is double teamed.

Moss is not running underneath routes. He's attacking the deep safety - and opening up the middle of the football field.

There is absolutely no reason to even look his way ever - until the safeties come in the box to prevent wide open guys underneath.

Brady went 19-for-23 to those underneath guys - whenever you can complete 83% of your passes - with little to no risk of turnovers - what's the point in heaving up bombs into double coverage?

We will see on Monday. You would think with the way the Jets threw the ball Sunday night, that Brady and company should have a big game. But don't forget that Miami moved the ball pretty well too (granted no Revis).

I agree that the Texans are always the trendy pick and fall flat on their asses every season (Afc version of the 49ers). I just get the feeling that they are on the rise as opposed to the Pats that seem to be bordering on transition.

Even if you take those 2 teams out of the equation, that makes them the 5th best team in the AFC.

When you think a 5'9" 26 year old white running back is going to be the Saviour for your team, it really might be time to reconsider how good they really are.

If he's 5' 9" - I'm 6' 5".

The New England offense is a veritable Juggernaut. Like it or not, it's the best offensive unit in the NFL and Woodhead is going to be a key part of it.

I really don't know anything about the defense .. but they couldn't possibly play any worse ... and we are still 2-1.

2007 Patriots cheated. This version seems slightly less offensive. I get the appeal.
