I thought I'd bring this up since it was mentioned some pages back......today in Kansas City the news director of KCTV 5 was fired, KCTV5 News Director @caseyclarkjr has been OUSTED & let go. New GM Charlie Henrich announced the move yesterday to employees via email. Clark was a driving force behind the terrible KCTV5 reporting on Tyreek Hill. He leaves KC after less than 2 yrs on the job. Yes that is the station and the man who took the Tyreek Hill audio to air..so in less than a year, the guy that runs the tv station and the woman beat reporter for the newspaper that spearheaded this story, have both been let go from their jobs. Interesting eh? Good for him. Hill is still a garbage person.

Damn it, can Boston please get some POSITIVE non-Covid-19 news?! Nah. The Patriots *should* be fine. After all, remember that one season when Brady got hurt in Week 1? They still went 11-5 and barely missed out on the playoffs. As long as the offensive and defensive lines are good, the Patriots will still be perennial playoff contenders at worst.

look at the weapons for Brady to play catch with WR Chris Godwin WR Mike Evans TE Rob Gronkowski TE OJ Howard Cameron Brate is actually the other TE, they're looking to move Howard. And I just realized, Rob Gronkowski is perfect there because now he is FLORIDA MAN.

Belichick is gonna have to retire, people don't wanna play there now....and for Gronkowski to come back the minute Brady switches teams makes you wonder how much he did not like old Bill. Retire? Nah. Bill has always had the my way or the high way mentality and Gronk/Brady have enough clout to say let us off right here we will walk. They needed him just as much as he needed them to win but after 20 years you finally having players that are tired of it and it helps they have rings to leave with Bill will be fine. The team will be fine. But itβs a gut punch I dunno, they look like an impending dumpster fire about to happen with that roster.

I still wonder if the Patriots end up trading up big time and try to get one of the big three QBs in the first round. Between who gets Burrow, Tua or Herbert, I feel like there's going to be a team that's looking for a QB and is going to be screwed. If I'm looking for a QB (especially Chargers and Dolphins), I'm trading up a few spots so no other team that's on the outside looking in doesn't snag my QB of the future. Dolphins have the draft ammo to make some moves so I can see them trading up and getting Tua or Burrow (whoever is not #1 overall). I can see someone moving up to the Lions spot and then Chargers get to pick and your big 3 are already off the board.
This first round of the draft is going to be a madhouse.

If he can win with a lower then average for Pats standards roster, that would be enough for him At this point I think within 5 years is Bill shelf life left to coach and heβs not going to go down easily

I wouldnβt sleep on Bill getting someone like Jalen Hurts in the 3rd round or so
Heβs a guy who works hard which is up Bill alley and he can coach him up while they get a vet to handle the duties for 2 years or so

Belichick is gonna have to retire, people don't wanna play there now....and for Gronkowski to come back the minute Brady switches teams makes you wonder how much he did not like old Bill. Look, anyone who thinks the Buccaneers are getting 2011 Rob Gronkowski (90 catches, 1,327 yards, 17 touchdowns) needs to check their calendars, because that was nine years ago. Anyone who thinks Tampa Bay is getting 2014 Rob Gronkowski (72 catches, 1,176 yards, 11 touchdowns) needs to realize that was six years ago. The Rob Gronkowski who'll take the field in September will be a 31-year-old who hasn't played a snap of professional football in 19 months and who most recently was talking about how he lost his love of the sport because of how much physical pain he was constantly in. He's had three back surgeries, four forearm surgeries, one ankle surgery, a torn ACL/MCL, he claims at least 20 concussions, and hasn't played a full regular season since 2011. This is a guy who isn't coming back to be an All-Pro or a Pro Bowler, he's coming back to give Tom Brady a red zone option and hope to have some fuel left in the tank for a playoff run. This isn't Michael Jordan coming out of retirement in 1995. This is Michael Jordan coming out of retirement in 2001.

Gronkowski was slow and broken down two years ago. Itβs a big name to get but Iβd put his over under in games around 10 with middle of the road output. Weβll see if he can still block

Actually, I just realized something.......what if Bill Belichick is a Machiavellian sociopath, which honestly I think he is.....and that f***er just runs Stidham out there every week and eats shit on purpose and tanks his way right to Trevor Lawrence....

Thatβs been my thought process since Brady bailed. Heβs going to go the Spurs route when Robinson got injured and they got Duncan. A one year mega tank for the greater good.

Bill doesn't do shit without a plan I don't know if he is outright tanking but after watching The Last Dance and seeing how Krause wanted to tear down the Bulls to rebuild and was told no. Kraft doesn't really have to tell Bill no because it fell in his lap with Gronk retiring and Brady wanting to leave The most funny shit will be if Bill says f*** it i'm out and Josh McDaniels finally gets his chance to take over the Pats with no offense

If the Pats were going to tank theyβd trade Gilmore while his value is super high.
I donβt think Belichick has it in him to tank.
That being said Iβm not sure the Patriots have put together a complete team
