Aaron has grown since the time he got here and his caliber of play and his level of execution, his understanding of our offense, has gone up significantly,“ Brady said. "He has a big role in our offense and we count on him to make the plays when his number is called. He made a bunch of them last week. He has to go do it again.”

Three months removed, it’s clear that Ryan Allen should have replaced the incumbent Zoltan Mesko as the New England Patriots punter. The rookie is 2.7 yards off the league lead in punting average (46.2), and 2.9 yards off the pace in net average (43.4). The Pittsburgh Steelers, meanwhile, released Mesko, earlier this week after a disappointing start to the year.

Interesting read on a position that isn’t often interesting to read about.

Maybe I shouldn’t say this but I’m not-so-patiently waiting for the “click” game for the Patriots offense, as in the game where suddenly everything just clicks. Sometimes these games only happen once per season (see Titans 2009), but I think the Pats are due and getting healthier every week.
Doesn’t mean it definitely will happen this week, but given the avalanche of criticism on Brady and his history against the Steelers, there’s a pretty good chance.
If it’s not, I think we can expect this will go down to the fourth quarter like they always do this season.
If McCourty is able to make it to the Pro Bowl at a different position this time around, he would join some ridiculously elite company. Historically, the players who have made the Pro Bowl at two defensive back spots – specifically going from corner to safety – are some of the best in the history of the game. Rod Woodson and Ronnie Lott made the transition and enjoyed great success over the course of their careers after they moved to the back end of the defense.

Everytime South Park goes after the Pats it feels like two of my best friends are fighting.

See how he’s stepping up into the pocket rather than running around?” Atkins explains. “We have to help out the ends by pushing the pocket to get five yards into the backfield. If I can get into the guard and center, he has no room to step up and make that touchdown throw. We have to make sure he can’t step into his throws. … If we can push the pocket to where he can’t step into his throws, or he has to alter his throws, I like our chances.

Good stuff as always from Bedard. I’d certainly like another crack at the Bengals.
