A sigh of relief
The Patriots opened up the preseason at Gillette tonight against the reining champs the saints. the defense came out looking good. Rookie Jermaine Cunningham recorded a sack in the first drive. Brady and the offense came out looking a little flat after a long Julian Edelman punt return. But after that the offense started to gel. BenJarvus Green-Ellis ran well and scored a TD. Rookie tight end Rob Gronkowski had a great block on that play. Moss, Tate and Edelman got into the mix catching passes. Edelman looks great everytime he touches the ball. Left guard Dan Connolly did a fine job in the place of Logan Mankins who is currently holding out in a contract dispute. The defense looked stout against the run. It wont surprise me to see Brandon Spikes end up getting the defensive rookie of the year award. After Brady losing it on the line last week and some poor practices. There was a lot of positives from tonights game. The defense looked good and the offense did as well. Lawrence Maroney ran hard, but can he do it during the regular season? We've all bee fooled before.

hey mike i have palmer and farve in my fantasy who should i start i know brett had a big year last year but i hate him
My biggest problem with Favre this year is his receiving core is banged up. Rice may need surgery for his hip. Percy Havin has migrain issues and could be out any sunday. Tight end Visathe Shiancoe has a shoulder problem. Palmer has Ochocinco, T.O. and Jermaine Gresham. Not to mention rookie Jordan Shipley looks solid. I'd go with Palmer and wiat to see how Favre is adjusting with his guys.
do you think i should pick up bernard berian
Take a look at your wr's. if there is a fringe guy you can part with go for it.
