Listen to what Jay Cutler said…
“My understanding at this point is they’re trying to trade me,” Cutler said this afternoon. “We’ll see where I end up at. I liked it here, I liked playing with these guys but obviously they’re not going to let me have that opportunity.” (Source)
It looks like they talked about a [...]
I think this clearly lays out the two options that will happen with Matt Cassel.
If the Pats aren’t confident enough in Brady’s knee, and also don’t feel backup Kevin O’Connell can assume a starter’s role, they’ll work out a longer term deal with Cassel. Keeping him for the one-year tender would make no sense, as [...]
As the Pro Football Grapevine stated before, the Patriots really did not have any great options at is relates to Matt Cassel and his impending free agency. Well, it appears that their decision was to franchise him.

The Patriots have a big decision ahead of them….what do do with Matt Cassel. This of course would be further complicated if Tom Brady’s knee is indeed having trouble. (Reports are mixed)
Tony Massarotti of the Boston Globe sports blog has done a great job breaking down the different options both [...]
Check out this information from Peter King of SI on free agent to be Matt Cassel…
Now this stat is eerie: After Tom Brady’s first 11 starts in the NFL, his completion percentage was 66.3. After Matt Cassel’s 11 NFL games this season, his completion percentage is … well, 66.3.
“Wow,” Cassel said from Miami after the [...]

Dan Shaughnessy of the Boston Globe wonders that very thing and wrote a [...]
What is going on here? Tom Brady? Kellen Winslow Jr.? Peyton Manning? Why are all these players getting staff infections?
Bob Kravitz of the Indy Star is asking the same questions…
The bigger questions, though, are where have all these staph infections come from, and why are they affecting athletes at all levels — even young kids [...]
And of course they don’t, so this is a wee bit useless.

If I were a betting man…
Bye usually has meant hello to victories for the Patriots in Bill Belichick’s coaching tenure. As players return from their bye weekend and get back to work today at Gillette Stadium – with back-to-back tests at San Francisco and San Diego looming – the question is: Will that continue?

Peter King checked in regarding quarterbacks the Patriots might be looking for. By way of free agents he mentioned Vinny Testaverde, Tim Rattay, and Daunte Culpepper. By way of trades he suggested Damon Huard, Jon Kitna, Brad Johnson, and a series of younger guys to groom.
While this may happen, it seems clear to me that [...]
