The Dolphins trade of Chris Chambers this week was both surprising and not surprising. On one hand, rumors pegged Chambers as potential trade bait going back to training camp, where he failed to impress new head coach Cam Cameron. Chambers was also plying his trade for a 0-6 team about to undergo a [...]

“It’s just not right,” my brother said. “Other guys that have left, I was happy for them when they found success. But I just can’t bring myself to root for Randy. It doesn’t seem fair he can quit his way onto a winning team.”

The Dallas Cowboys thought they had the New England Patriots for a minute there yesterday, as they rallied for a 24-21 third-quarter lead after having trailed by two touchdowns.
No dice.
The Patriots exploded for 27 points over the game’s final 25 minutes – to just 3 from the overwhemled Cowboys – to close out [...]

We’ll get to today’s matchup of unbeatens in a minute, but first, let’s spend a moment with Dan Shaughnessy.
I can’t stay up until one-freaking-thirty in the morning to watch a baseball game. So the minute I got up today, I headed straight for an update from my trusty Patriots Daily laptop (batteries not [...]

The 5-0 Patriots are headed to Dallas this weekend to take on the 5-0 Cowboys in a big game that has gotten even bigger with some latent Spy-gate sniping this week.
Let’s line up the Row of Chairs for their weekly forecast of impending doom for the Patriots’ fat, balding and slow-witted [...]

Although the Cowboys almost didn’t make it, their narrow victory on Monday does present us with a rarity coming up this week: a matchup of two teams, both 5-0. In fact, since 1983, there’s been exactly one 5-0 vs. 5-0 game, and it also involved the Patriots. In 2004, the 5-0 Patriots met [...]
