patriots '05

never mind the fact that john ruiz was made into mush on saturday... whats with this depth chart?

flutie i can see as a credible backup, once they decide between chris redman and the new guy as The Future and send rohan davey back to jamaica. RBs make sense, FB and TE exactly where i'd imagine... logan mankins will jump in when either stephen neal or russ hochstein have that hamstring or ankle issue they're both overdue for. all of this i understand. but with regards to WR: on one side we have deion branch (health risk), troy brown (not under contract!), bethel johnson (immature even if i am his top apologist), and kevin kasper (don't apologize if you've never heard of him), and on the other side we have david terrell (unproven), david givens (why is this man not a starter?), and tim dwight (from the falcons). am i crazy, or are we one major injury away from randall gay as slot back? or earthwind moreland? (more on him later)... point is, who the fuck are these guys?

and if that isn't bad enough... what was the positional area where we had the biggest Stretch last year? if you answered 'fullback,' you get an 'e' for effort, but the one and only correct answer is Defensive Back. so who are the projected starters for the 05 pats? on one side we have asante samuel (i love this guy), troy brown (will not play CB anymore, oh, and also NOT UNDER CONTRACT!!), eugene wilson (when not busy at free safety), randall gay (when not slot back), and finally, if we haven't forgotten, the FIFTH string corner TYRONE POOLE! what the fuck?! there is some serious disconnect here, because this man is either a starter, or he's trade fodder. we start him, or we find out what we can get for him. having this man serve gatorade smoothies to randall gay and earthwind moreland (still more to come...) is not the best use of his talents. meanwhile, on the other side, we have duane starks (new guy, phenom), randall gay (deserves a second-string spot), and earthwind moreland (is he back? did he never leave? why is he on the depth chart? where is hank poteat?). at the anchor, we have rodney harrison (of course), je'rod cherry (seriously underrated), and dexter reid (fucking worthless). (just keep dexter reid away from anyone who may actually catch the ball, and its four in five years). and in centerfield we have eugene wilson, don (i'm really a linebacker, but don't tell Coach B) davis, dexter (mushmouth) reid, and the very intriguing guss scott.

this is the year we prove ourselves or wither. it all rests on earthwind moreland...
