Return for Revenge


Heeeeeeeeeeee's Backkkkkkkkkkk!!!!
With a mere 4 games left in the regular season two ex-patriots have made their returns to the team. Roosevelt Colvin and Junior Seau, both out of football for the entire year, suited up for the Pats on sunday vs. the Seahawks in what would prove to be a very important win for New England. Seau, who said that saturday was the first time he put on cleats since the superbowl loss, played a big part of the game especially when LB Teddy Bruschi went down with what looked to be a severe injury. As for the game it was anything but a gimme. Seattle, coming in at 2-10, put up a hell of a fight and gave everything they had. In fact, New England never even had a lead in the game until 57 minutes into the game. It was an epic struggle to the end but Matt Cassel was able to use Wes Welker very effectively to get his team back into the game. Welker had 13 catches and was easily the MVP of the game. Belichick seemed pleased that his injuried team was able to get the Win. Bill will attempt to lead his team to a second consecutive victory on sunday vs. the lowly Raiders and propel his team into the top spot in the AFC East.

The Epic Struggle in New England














Last Sunday was a tough day for the fans in New England. After watching Matty Cassel throw for conseutive 400 yard games there was a new attitude built up in New England. "Maybe we can acutally do this. Matt Cassel can lead us to victory!" And it only took a miserable 3 hours to reverse the whole attitude. PIT @ NE was supposed to be a matchup of AFC heavyweights. It was anything but that. The Steelers came out firing on all cyclinders scoring 33 points as opposed to 10 by the Patriots. They beat the Pats in every facet of the game including offense, defense, special teams, and penalties. All the hope that was created in New England took a crushing blow as Matt Cassel repeatedly fumbled the ball away and into the greedy hands of the Steelers defenders. It was an awful day/night in New England. Luckily in the National Football League you can fix everything with a win the next week and we all know that Bill will make that possible.
