Believing sincerely that a watched pot never boils, our own Chef has been passing the time in the PD Kitchen (idle this week with a road game on tap) by perusing the Intertubes for choice meat on this Sunday night’s Colts-Pats matchup.
He shoots, he scores. It seems the Pro Football Hall of [...]

(Editor’s Note: This morning we welcome this guest contribution from old friend Kevin Henkin, who has an idea on how the Patriots can quickly return to the top of the NFL heap. We cannot believe we didn’t think of this first. But that’s Kevin Henkin, folks. A visionary.)
While I may not be a [...]

I am not really happy with the Giants this week.  Haven’t been happy with them for the last 3 weeks, truth be told.  It’s not so much the attitude they’ve displayed this week or the bad judgment they’re guilty of, for showing up to Arizona dressed like pall bearers.  It’s not their lack of respect, [...]

The argument for the Giants winning this game seems to boil down to the fact that they outplayed the Patriots for 3 quarters a month ago, but couldn’t close the deal; now they are playing much better (an arguable proposition), the Patriots are the same or have even regressed a bit (also arguable), therefore the [...]

You’ve got to hand it to the Giants. They made it here the hard way, winning all three road games. I still don’t think they are in the class of any of the final four AFC teams, though.
I’ve always been a closet Eli Manning fan. I think it’s because he’s always been crapped on for [...]

Take the Over, Not the Underdog.
Everybody loves the underdog, from David to the Little Engine That Could.
Pundits cite the ‘01 Patriots or the ‘90 Giants as examples that yes, your team too can do the impossible. (Of course, they never mention the one element those teams had in common.)
Why not the ‘89 Broncos, the ‘92 [...]

(Editors Note: Throughout the afternoon, we’ll be bringing you last-minute thoughts from the members of our esteemed Patriots Roundtable, as they prepare to watch their team take the field for its fourth Super Bowl of the last seven years.)
I am excited about this game. I have read a lot of the pre-game stuff, and been talking with [...]

First, a little housekeeping: we’re having some technical difficulties this morning in posting this week’s Patriots Buffet Table. But please, stay tuned later today for another winning entry from the PD Kitchen Staff.
Edit: And just like that, here it is. With beer cans! Thanks, Kitchen Staff!
The Patriots are poised to entertain the Chargers [...]

There’s only 36 hours (or so) to go before New England fans see their undefeated Patriots take the field for the first playoff game in what could be the greatest season in NFL history.
Their opponent will be the 12-5 Jacksonville Jaguars, runners of the football, punchers of the mouth, thought to [...]

The day has arrived. Just one more Giant step to a perfect regular season.
On an occasion such as this, it seemed only right to query our favorite group of yahoos – the PD Roundtable gang – for their thoughts as their team stands at the brink of history.
You’ve all been Patriots [...]

Some housekeeping before we give the Roundtable gang the floor:
Some technical difficulties prevented us from publishing Bill Barnwell’s Outside Foxborough column this week. Apologies to Bill, who turned in a typically illuminating effort on pro football betting lines, such as the rather considerable one favoring the Patriots this Sunday. Good news, [...]

First, let’s pause and give thanks for that for once, the Patriots are playing a game on Sunday afternoon. I suppose four consecutive prime-time games would have been excessive.
Second, let’s also give thanks that the PD Kitchen Staff is back with a hardworking, straightforward Patriots Buffet Table fit for a steel [...]
