It'd be great - Moss could try to run over Briggs, and Briggs could pull a gun and try to shoot Moss. They'd both get together and smoke a fatty to make up for it, and the entire region will come together to celebrate their classy organiaztion for bringing in such model citizens.

jgcrawfish 232 Posted April 30, 2007 Hell, why not just go "Longest Yard" and see if they can acquire Pacman Jones, Chris Henry and Tank Johnson in the process? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Celticspride 0 Posted April 30, 2007 Briggs has already stated that he wouldn't switch to a 3-4, so why would New England want him? One of the biggest, if not the biggest attributes Bill Belichick covets is versatility, and if Briggs isn't willing to switch to a 3-4, I can't see the Patriots trading for him, even if the price was extremely low, as was the case with Moss.

Comments like this are what starts it. You're trying to say you didn't think that with all the Pats cap space and draft picks, that they would sign anyone noteworthy?

You're trying to say you didn't think that with all the Pats cap space and draft picks, that they would sign anyone noteworthy? it was only a matter of time before you joined in the hate party. No shovel, I really didn't expect them to sign Adalius Thomas, Donte Stallworth, Wes Welker, and Randy Moss. shocking I know, but I just never saw it coming. I figured they'd land one big name FA and load up on young DBs and LBs in the draft. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I figured they'd land one big name FA and load up on young DBs and LBs in the draft. Agreed, I thought maybe one FA, but now not both Thomas and Stallworth, and adding Moss & Welker via trade wasn't on my radar either (also adding a extra 1st rounder and 3rd rounder for next season). I'm blown away by who and how they've added these guys. once again, I'm not crowning anyone but there is certainly reason for excitement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm as or more optimistic about the SuperBowl than I ever have been... anything short of the SuperBowl will be a disappointment this year... but that's how high they've set the bar... can't fault them for that... it's better than being the f'n Bruins.

Can't wait for the Pats fans to start offing themselves come December :hyper: yup, it'll be pretty depressing for Pats fans if it all falls apart... they've never looked better going into the season... they've never looked sexier on paper. unless of course the Red Sox win the World Series... the overflow of euphoria will lessen the pain of a Pats early exit... and then NE's loaded with draft picks in '08 (2 more firsts)... so we'll have that going for us.

Bunch of focking hypocrites. I'd be surprised if the Pats even win the division. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now they've thrown some talent on top of the pile. the fact that bitter Charger fans are this pissed off tells me that I should be even happier than I am right now.

DBZFan2K 0 Posted April 30, 2007 The Pats can win even with average players because of great coaching. You turn those average players into great players and you can expect even more wins with the same great coaching. Briggs isn't going to the Pats though.

bigtuna 0 Posted April 30, 2007 Briggs doesn't fit the system at all and would cost too much. The Pats are not going to pay top dollar for a player like Briggs. People should remember that Moss and stallworth got LOW MONEY deals. Together they make about the same as Deoin Branch would have. Every team has room for only a few top money contracts....the Pats already have Brady, Seymour and Adaluis Thomas making big $$. And in a couple years they will need to make room for Ty Warren and possibly Vince Wilfork. not to mention dealing with Assante Samuel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
