Even with a shortage of linebackers, Patriots coach Bill Belichick hinted that Gary Guyton’s lack of playing time Sunday was due in larger part to a coach’s decision than the shoulder injury that left him questionable for the game after three days of limited activity last week. “The players that were active for the game, were active for the game,” said Belichick. “The players that weren’t active either weren’t active because of injuries or because of coaching decisions…. Somebody that was active for the game, was able to play. Yeah, he missed some time this week in practice – that was a concern going into the game – but he was active for the game.”

Anyone who reads this blog or listen to me and Frenz on the podcast knows I’m not a big Guyton fan, and I can’t say I’m disappointed in the least that he was benched. Every stat/rating I’ve seen for Guyton this year confirms he’s been one of their worst players on defense, but only BB would have the balls to bench him for an undrafted rookie and a career special teamer.

Why is Matthew Slater a Pro Bowl special teamer? His tackle on punt returner Jacoby Jones (8:21 remaining) is one example. Slater worked away from a double-team at the line of scrimmage (Chykie Brown/Jeromy Miles) and outran everyone up the middle of the field, located the ball, took a perfect angle and broke down perfectly […]
